Holding Hands

Holding hands
Not the sort of thing you dream of
You do it everyday

Understand
Not the same for everybody
Some have to hide it away

It makes no difference to people like you
Who fit in with the crowd
Such a problem for those people who
Face it every day
What will people say?

Calling friends and lovers
Special boys and girls
Holding hands together
Right around the world
 
Just a kiss
Stolen in a darkened doorway
Is an impossible dream

Even this
Simple but it is a sure way
To make Joe Average scream

You're like a signpost showing the way
But never going yourself
Do you really think we should come out to play
Such an open mind
Is that what we'll find?

Understanding people who
Are in love just like you
But with partners they must hide
Fearful of the world outside

Claim you have an open mind
Free from hate of any kind
Free from any preconception
If that's true you're the exception

Calling friends and lovers
Special boys and girls
Holding hands together
Right around the world
