This song describes a love that has endured through the years. It was inspired by an older couple I know who is still so in love. The song parallels a "Prince" and "Princess" theme. In this relationship, the girl has found her "Prince" and she feels like Cinderella on the night of the ball in a fairytale love story. They start out as children dancing hand in hand and end up holding hands in the hospital as she slips into eternity....still in love and faithfully committed to each other.
I hope this inspires all who hear to strive for a lifelong love commitment like the couple in this song. I hope you enjoy "Take My Hand" Lyrics Below...
~Michelle
1933 at Brown Elementary
She was only eleven years old
Teacher told the class "it's time you learned to dance,
Pick your partners" for the Tennessee waltz
She walked up to a shy fella
And said, "I wanna feel like Cinderella"
Take my hand, spin my round
Turn my world upside down
Make me feel like it's never gonna end
Hold me close, soft and sweet
And I'll follow your lead
I'm not a princess, but let's pretend
So take my hand
Many years have passed since that day in class
When she asked that boy to dance
Who would've thought what that teacher taught
Would start such a beautiful romance
That was the day she found her prince
He took her hand and hasn't let go since
Take my hand, spin my round
Turn my world upside down
Make me feel like it's never gonna end
Hold me close, soft and sweet
And I'll follow your lead
I'm not a princess, but let's pretend
So take my hand
The years have gone by
He's still there by her side
The kind of love they tell stories about
In a hospital bed
He gently strokes her head
He knows time is running out
He says love, what can I do for ya?
She whispers, I wanna feel like Cinderella
Take my hand, spin me round
Turn my world upside down
Make me feel like it's never gonna end
Hold me close, when I leave
You can follow my lead
It's almost over, but let's pretend
Take my hand
Take my hand
Thanks for listening...glad you enjoyed it!
