  Studio Recording, 1984
  • This song is also from the first Happy Rhodes recording sessions. Played at Happy's first public performance back in 1983, at the famed Cafe Lena's. Wish we had time machines. [The Keep's notes written by Kevin Bartlett]
  • Happy Rhodes - vox, acoustic guitar

Oh Hand of Mine

Oh hand of mine
wrap yourself around my neck
Then, oh, give me life, give me life

Oh hand of mine
hold the strings to the fret
then, oh, give them life, give them life

Now there's a thing I don't control
It festers in my soul
It's not the heart, and it's not the mind
It's a force of a different kind

Oh hand of mine
wrap yourself around my love
Then, oh, steal his life, steal his life

And oh, heart or mine
hold your music deep
Then, oh, give me time, give me time

Now there's a thing I don't control
It festers in my soul
It's not the heart and it's not the mind
It's a force of a different kind
