Angela Evans - Warm Hands lyrics

My daddy had warm hands* Rough and dirty like a workin' man Changing tires in a blistering storm His hands would still be warm I remember his leather mitts He'd leave em on the living room chair I'd stick my hands inside Just to see if it was warm in there My daddy had warm hands And those hands fixed everything Everything but a broken heart When the family was torn apart They were outside fixing cars When we left him his face went dull We knew he loved us despite it all Watched his kingdom begin to fall While his hands tried to hold up those walls My daddy had warm hands Rough and dirty like a workin' man Changing tires in a blistering storm His hands would still be warm They would steam in the cold air I can still see him standing there Thick hat and a winter coat Wool scarf wrapped around his throat My daddy had warm hands And as I begin to age I understand how things go their ways Sometimes this world demands A little more than warm hands My daddy had warm hands Strong and steady like a workin' man Though they've grown much softer now I guess time broke em down somehow They can still fix everything Right down to my broken heart Even when they're out fixing cars I know they won't let me fall apart My daddy had warm hands Rough and dirty like a workin' man Changing tires in a blistering storm His hands would still be warm They would steam in the cold air I can still see him standing there Thick hat and a winter coat Wool scarf wrapped around his throat My daddy had warm hands
