[Verse 1]
You came in soft
Like a clean white sheet
Found me bruised up
Under too many sheets
I learned her names
Like scars on my skin
I said “I’m fine”
But I don’t let folks in
You saw my hands
When they wouldn’t stay still
Said “slow down, baby”
“I can match your will”
[Pre-Chorus]
You didn’t flinch
When I drew that line
You just stood there
And gave me time
No games, no chase
Just a steady flame
You said your heart
Could learn my name
[Chorus]
Hands like home
You make me feel safe
Hands like home
You give what you take
You love me slow
You love me true
Hands like home
I’m coming to you
Hands like home
No fears in my chest
Hands like home
You bring me my best
You stay close
You don’t let go
Hands like home
I finally know
[Verse 2]
You remember things
That I barely say
The way I go quiet
When I’m worn away
You leave room for me
When the world gets loud
You don’t make me beg
You don’t puff up proud
And when I’m bitter
You don’t call me cold
You say, “Baby, hurt
Can still unfold”
You bring the truth
With a gentle touch
Never too little
Never too much
[Pre-Chorus]
You didn’t flinch
When I drew that line
You just stood there
And gave me time
No games, no chase
Just a steady flame
You said your heart
Could learn my name
[Chorus]
Hands like home
You make me feel safe
Hands like home
You give what you take
You love me slow
You love me true
Hands like home
I’m coming to you
Hands like home
No fears in my chest
Hands like home
You bring me my best
You stay close
You don’t let go
Hands like home
I finally know
[Bridge]
Maybe love
Ain’t meant to hurt
Maybe peace
Can come in first
If you stay
I’ll stay too
I can learn
A love like you
[Chorus]
Hands like home
You make me feel safe
Hands like home
You give what you take
You love me slow
You love me true
Hands like home
I’m coming to you
Hands like home
No fears in my chest
Hands like home
You bring me my best
You stay close
You don’t let go
Hands like home
I finally know
