Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Raven is the color of her long, curly hair
Red is the dress that she knows how to wear
Bluest eyes I've ever seen, maybe just a touch of green
Oh, she could steal most any woman's man
This'd be a real good time to hold my hand
[Chorus]
She walked up and said, "Hello, it's been awhile"
Don't think I didn't notice the nervous in your smile
It wasn't that long ago you were a whole lot more than friends
So this'd be a real good time to hold my hand
[Verse 2]
Don't let this moment linger
Now would be the time
To reach out your fingers
Get 'em tangled up with mine
[Verse 3]
Let her know for sure that I'm more than just a soft place to land
This'd be a real good time to hold my hand
[Verse 4]
If I'm your future and she's your past
If it's over with her and our love's gonna last
[Chorus]
Don't let this moment linger
Now would be the time
To reach out with your fingers
Get 'em tangled up with mine
[Chorus]
Let her know for sure that I'm more than just a soft place to land
This'd be a real good time
Oh, this'd be a real good time
This'd be a real good time to hold my hand
