Empty Your Hands - The Weepies/Deb Talan/Steve Tannen

Lyricist：Steven Tannen/Deb Talan

Sixteen balloons against the blue

They're red they're red like a dream come true

Sure it was enough to give them to you

To watch you let them go let them go

Empty your hands

Of overheard conversations

Empty your hands

Static from the big bang

And dinosaur radio stations

Empty your hands

Genocides in foreign nations

Empty your hands and look up

His eyes are wide and beautiful

My own feel dull and old

They can't recall some buoyancy

They've had too much to hold let them go

Empty your hands

Of overheard conversations

Empty your hands

Static from the big bang

And dinosaur radio stations

Empty your hands

Genocides in foreign nations

Empty your hands and look up

Floating past a daytime moon

Transparent as a shell

Rubies in a well sixteen apples on a tree

We never would have seen

If his fingers weren't so free

Our baby learned to run today

In circles on the grass

His joyful face it radiates

These moments go so fast let them go

Empty your hands

Of overheard conversations

Empty your hands

Static from the big bang

And dinosaur radio stations

Empty your hands

Genocides in foreign nations

Empty your hands and look up
