Lyrics
Did you ever find hope from just a handshake?
Ever sense heartbreak in an understated sigh?
Have a conversation when you hardly said a word??
Listen...I need to be heard.
Lately, I've been cryin' 'stead 'a sleepin'
Don't know what's 'come of me or how I got this way
So many fears and doubts keep runnin' through my brain...
Listen...you can ease my pain.
And it won't take long
Just hear my story, you don't have to be strong
Don't educate me about what's wrong or right
Listen... hear me out tonight.
Barely got myself in gear this mornin'
I just felt so lonely, thought I'd stay in bed all day
My whole world's a shambles...all I feel is "numb"
But stay with me and I'll overcome.
And it won't take long
Just hear my story, you don't have to be strong
Don't educate me about what's wrong or right
Listen... hear me out tonight.
Forget about insightful observation
I don't need your judgment... 'bout my sanity
But when you've got a moment, could you look beneath my skin
Help me shed the trouble that I'm in....
And it won't take long
Just hear my story, you don't have to be strong
Don't educate me about what's wrong or right
Listen... hear me out tonight.
Did you ever find hope from just a handshake?
Ever sense heartbreak in an understated sigh....?
