Trouble
Trouble me, disturb me
With all your cares and your worries
Trouble me
On the days when you feel spent
Why let your shoulders bend
Underneath this burden when my
Back is sturdy and strong
Trouble me
(ee) Speak to me, don’t mislead me
The calm I feel means a storm is swelling
(Speak to me) There’s no telling
Where it starts or how it ends
(Speak to me) Why are you building
This thick, brick wall to defend me?
(Speak to me) When your silence is
My greatest fear
Why let your shoulders bend
Underneath this burden when my
Back is sturdy and strong
Speak to me
(ee) Let me, have a look
In-side these eyes while I’m learning
(Let me) Please don’t hide them
Just be-cause of tears
Let me, send you off to sleep with a
There, there now, stop your turning and tossing.
(Let me) Let me know where
The hurt is and how to heal
BRIDGE
Spare, spare me
Don’t spare me of anything
Troub-ling
Trouble me, disturb me
With all your cares and your worries
Speak to me, and let our words build a
Shelter from the storm
Let me, and lastly let me
Know what I can mend
There’s more honestly
Than my sweet friend, you can see
Trust is what I’m offer-ing
If you’ll trouble me
