Reach Out and Touch Someone's Hand

You left me here with ghosts
The only holy things I know
Some untraceable line of feeling
An apparition apparently appealing
“Be gone now!” I decree
It's shocking they're obeying me
I know only a child believes in ghosts
But I'm the oldest kid I know

There's no doubt it's time to make some new plans
So reach out and touch someone's hand

A tangled mind retires
And truth comes raging through the brier
And I finally view with some clarity
The unseemly thing that's been killing me

I tend to underplay
I wasn't happy anyway
Just think I'd never been a bigger liar
Than when you were lying next to me

There's no doubt it's time to make some new plans
So reach out and touch someone's hand

Someone's hands are on my back
And I can feel more love than I can stand
Until I let some blood, until love is all I am

There's no doubt it's time to make some new plans
So reach out and touch someone's hand

There's no doubt it's time to make some new plans
So reach out and touch someone's hand
