You look at me like I don't speak your language Your eyes seem really faraway Your hands are really shaking pretty bad As you light your thirty-second cigarette No, no don't turn away... I see you smile, but you're so sad Swallowing all those awefull secrets That you can never tell Your troubles crawl around inside your veins All the worries seeped underneath your skin You know you really should get yourself together But, you just can't seem to pick yourself up off the floor You know that there's more to life than this You just can't see that far... Standing there, sorrow is your stance Shoulder sagging, slightly There's so much pain in your face The tragedies of life weigh you down Oh, my sweet baby... You know you're getting really hard to be with But, don't turn away again, don't put out the light Come here, and lay your head upon my shoulder Share this burden that you have For it is too much for you to carry Too much for you to bury... And my love, this love, our love Can make it all alright... |
