To Comfort You

You've been down in the dumps

It seems like forever

Now, what have they done to you?

Not a single thing's turned out

The way you imagined

It all looks unreachable to you

You don't know for the life of you

What is missing

Or why it always happens to you

And you don't like yourself

You feel nobody's listening

You don't need another platitude

For a moment you forget

And a smile comes to your face

Aah, but it doesn't last too long

It's like a string you got tied

Around your finger

Reminding you of

Everything that's wrong

I won't try to say I know what you're feeling

I won't try to second guess you

I won't try to give advice you won't be needing

I'm only here to comfort you

I'm only here to comfort you

And I'd love to be the reason

A smile somes to your face

Even if it doesn't last too long

And I'd love to take that string

You've got tied around your finger

Reminding you of everything that's wrong

I won't try to say I know what you're feeling

I won't try to second guess you

I won't try to give advice you won't be needing

I'm only here to comfort you

I'm only here to comfort you

I'm only here to comfort you
