FACE IN MY HANDS
I’d like to thank your parents girl for the way their genes combined
Consequently I’m in a whirl, you’re all that’s on my mind
Then you say you’re travelling long on tomorrow’s Eurostar
I’ll be verse in search of a song until you’re not so far
So when you step down from that train I will be standing here waiting for you

I wanna hold your face in my hands if that’s okay with you
I wanna hold your face in my hands and kiss you
​
I’d like to buy an aeroplane and set out on my way
I’ve never felt quite so insane, and it’s only been a day
So when you climb down from that train
I will be standing here waiting for you

I wanna hold your face in my hands if that’s okay with you
I wanna hold your face in my hands and kiss you
I wanna keep your image in mind until I’ve worn it through
I wanna hold your face in my hands and kiss you
So if you’ve got any plans please set them free
I’m sure you’ve got your fans but they’re not like me
I’ve got these hands and they long to be wrapped around you

So Saturday becomes my prayer but I wish that it was now
I long to feel your perfect hair fall across my brow
So when you jump down from that train
I will be standing here waiting for you
I wanna hold your face in my hands if that’s okay with you
I wanna hold your face in my hands and kiss you
I wanna write your name in the sky in shades of green and blue
I wanna hold your face in my hands and kiss you
I wanna hold your face in my hands if that’s okay with you
I wanna hold your face in my hands and kiss you
