Looking at the starfish
stranded on the beach
reminds me of the homeless
standing on the street
feeling the wind that i canand't see
hearing it moving through the trees
you canand't hold the sun
you canand't stop the rain
all youand've left to do is
hold the hand that can
looking at the flowers
flattened by the storm
thinking of the cities
trampled by the wars
feeling the rain upon my face
knowing that i canand't change this place
you canand't hold the sun
you canand't stop the rain
all youand've left to do is
hold the hand that can
you canand't hold the sun
and you canand't stop the rain
you can hold your tears
and hide your pain
you canand't shake the earth
you canand't touch the sky
all youand've left to do is
hold the hand that can
