Lyrics
I used to fall deep into young loves
I guess that was never enough
I was in for the moment and took what I could
Then I left when the going got rough
But there was something in you
Perhaps the flash of your smile
The way your eyes had a life all their own
That drew me to you...and got me to risk
Everything on a love that's full grown
And you took me well in hand
And taught me the things a man should know
You gave me the strength to stand
Up to problems I'd run from before
Facing you while facing myself
Made me want to turn and run
But you took me well in hand.....
I started with you like the others
With postures and all the routines
But you took me and proved that I didn't know
What the words I was saying could mean
You brought the light of your love to the dark of my life
You taught to me with a gentle command
The strong and subtle joy of learning who you are
Learning at the same time who I am
And you took me well in hand
And taught me the things a man should know
You gave me the strength to stand
Up to problems I'd run from before
Facing you while facing myself
Made me want to turn and run
But you took me well in hand
I thought I would be able to hold you
In the palm of my hand like the rest
I thought I had a handle on the ways of love
I thought that I knew what was best
But you took me well in hand
Taught me the things a man should know
You gave me the strength to stand
Up to problems I'd run from before
Facing you while facing myself
Made me want to turn and run
But you took me well in hand
Oh...but you took me....
Well in hand
