Cover art for Back Of My Hand lyrics by Gemma Hayes

I love Gemma Hayes, the way she sings what she writes just moves me.

I think in this song, she is telling a story implying 3 people, her, the man she loves with whom she had a great connexion, and the woman he loves more than her.

It is more about the way you are In, the other person promises you a forever and you buy it because you think the kind of connection you have is one of a kind, but then he leaves to another one to whom he promises the same things, and all you have to do is to move on and erase the thoughts of him.

a way to say that good things never last ..
