[Intro]
Oh, look at you
I hate to see you cry
Hey, come here
[Verse 1]
I know you're kind of blue
Cause love ain't been good to you
Well, dry your pretty eyes
Those days are through
Cause you're in good hands now
[Verse 2]
All the love you gave
Gone to waste
All the heartaches
He made you face
Things will be different now
With me in his place
Hey, you're in good hands now
[Bridge]
If trouble ever comes to you
I'll see you through, me and you
And whenever you are down
I'll be around
(You will never have
A need for anything)
And I mean that, baby
(I will always bring) Yes, I will
(True happiness to you)
Cause I realize, I realize
[Verse 3]
It's your heart I have here
So delicate, and, oh, so rare
I promise I will handle it
With tender loving care
Hey, you're in good hands now
[Outro]
Ooh
(Baby, you're in good hands now)
Don't you worry 'bout a thing, girl
Hey, rest your pretty little head and kiss my shoulder
(Baby you're in good hands now)
Yeah, yeah
(Baby, you're in good hands now)
You're in good hands now
I'll keep you safe and sound
(Baby, you're in good hands now)
You're in good hands now
I'll keep you safe and sound
(Baby, you're in good hands now)
Oh, look at you
I hate to see you cry
Hey, come here
[Verse 1]
I know you're kind of blue
Cause love ain't been good to you
Well, dry your pretty eyes
Those days are through
Cause you're in good hands now
[Verse 2]
All the love you gave
Gone to waste
All the heartaches
He made you face
Things will be different now
With me in his place
Hey, you're in good hands now

I'll see you through, me and you
And whenever you are down

You're in good hands now
I'll keep you safe and sound
(Baby, you're in good hands now)
You're in good hands now
I'll keep you safe and sound
(Baby, you're in good hands now)
