My question is this: how is he holding her hands if she's not there? This brings up a more disturbing image than our grave robbers in here.

He's not. He's saying that he
would be happy to hold the hands that he loves, not he's happy holding the hands that he loves. Your reading it as present tense, not as it's written.
