Right in the Palm of Your Hand

(Bob McDill)



A willing woman, a willing man

A five room house and a wedding band

Believe us, believe us.

Once it begins you know it don't take long

'Til like two people in a heartbreak song

I wonder, I wonder.



Well, ain't it just like a woman and ain't it just like a man

Chasin the rainbow looking for love

When it's right in the palm of my hand

When it's right in the palm of your hand.



We can't take back those things we said

So we watch it pass in seperate beds

Changing, were changing.

Too little love and too much pride

You won't give in and neither will I

Like children, children.



Well, ain't it just like a woman and ain't it just like a man

Chasing the rainbow looking for love

When it's right in the palm of your hand.

When it's right in the palm of your hand.



Feet on the floor, holding my head

Sittin' alone on the side of the bed

I've been thinking, thinking.

Trying to find where we went wrong

I just turned around and you were gone

It's over, it's over.



Well, ain't it just like a woman and ain't it just like a man

Chasing the rainbow looking for love

When it's right in the palm of your hand.



Well ain't it just like a woman and ain't it just like a man

Chasing the rainbow looking for love

When it's right in the palm of your hand

When it's right in the palm of your hand...
