Trouble, trouble me
Disturb me with all your cares and your worries
Trouble me
On the days when you feel spentWhy let your shoulders bend underneath this burden
When my back is sturdy and strong?
Trouble meSpeak 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 fearWhy let your shoulders bend underneath this burden
When my back is sturdy and strong?
Speak to meLet me
Have a look inside these eyes while I'm learning
Let me
Please don't hide them just because of tears
Let me
Send you off to sleep with a
There, there, now stop your turnin' and tossin'
Let me
Let me know where the hurt is and how to healSpare, spare me
Don't spare me anythingTrouble me, trouble me
Disturb me with all your cares and you worries
Speak to me
And let our words build a shelter from the storm
Let me
And lastly, let me know what I can mendThere's more, honestly, than my sweet friend, you can see
Trust is what I'm offering if you trouble me
