A hand to love
Nilima Choudhury 1981 (TX)
Doesn't matter… if I
Have to sit, or to walk or to stand
All I need is a loving hand
Doesn't matter… as to
Who is small and who is tall
All we need is a friend for all
Doesn't matter… as to
What we don't and what we do
As long as I get to keep you
Doesn't matter...as to
Who is fat or who is thin
As long as I have the world akin
Doesn't matter… as to
Who is old and who is new
As long as I get to be with you
Doesn't matter… as to
Who is dark and who is fair
All I want is someone to share
Doesn't matter… as to
What we lose or what we get
I am happy that we finally met
One helping hand grows to two
If you have me and I have you
After All, we only love one another
So whoever wins, why do I bother
Let's just be happy and stay together
