Beads in Your Hands

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Forty-one years down this winding road, Hand in hand we carried every load. Through the sunshine and the pouring rain, Through the quiet joy and the deepest pain. A steady heart who always stays, A gentle love in a thousand ways. [Chorus] Oh Willie, you still love me so, After all these years, you never let go. Through every storm you held me tight, You're my morning and my evening light. Willie, my forever true, There's no one in this world like you. [Verse 2] Six little ones you'd chase and play, A father's laughter filled each day. We carried angels we never held, Two tiny hearts that heaven felt. And when our Conor slipped away, We leaned on love to face the day. [Chorus] Oh Willie, you still love me so, After all these years, you never let go. Through every storm you held me tight, You're my morning and my evening light. Willie, my forever true, There's no one in this world like you. [Bridge] Beads in your hands, a whispered prayer, You found a peace, a comfort there. The ones we lost are never far, They shine on us like evening stars. [Verse 3] You listen close when others speak, A quiet strength, though your heart is weak. Cheering your teams beneath the sun, Still my hero, still the one. Whatever comes, whatever's true, I'll always find my home in you. [Chorus] Oh Willie, you still love me so, After all these years, you never let go. Through every storm you held me tight, You're my morning and my evening light. [Outro] Willie, my love, my healing song, Right here with you is where I belong.
