You Stopped Holding My Hand in Public lyrics

We were crossing a parking lot and I reached overAnd you slid your hand out of mine without thinkingNot unkind just not necessary anymoreAnd I kept walking and pretended not to noticeYou were just growing upThat's all it wasThat's everything it wasYou stopped holding my hand in publicAnd I pretended it didn't break my heart a littleYou stopped holding my hand in publicBecause you were becoming your own personAnd I am so proud of you I cannot find the wordsBut I miss the weight of your hand inside of mineYou stopped holding my hand in publicAnd I held the memory every day after thatNow you walk beside me with your hands in your pocketsAnd we talk like equals which I love completelyBut sometimes when we cross a road I still look overAnd remember how you used to reach for me firstI know it's exactly how it's supposed to goThat doesn't make the going any easierYou stopped holding my hand in publicAnd I pretended it didn't break my heart a littleYou stopped holding my hand in publicBecause you were becoming your own personAnd I am so proud of you I cannot find the wordsBut I miss the weight of your hand inside of mineYou stopped holding my hand in publicAnd I held the memory every day after thatBut last winter in the coldYou reached over without thinkingAnd held my hand for half a blockAnd then let go againAnd I have been living off that moment ever sinceI keep that momentI keep every hand-holdI keep it all
