Trouble me

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

(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
Log on to kill this message.
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

Let 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 turning and tossing
(Let me) let me know where
The hurt is and how to heal

Spare, spare me, don't
Spare me anything troubling

(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 mend

There's more, honestly
Than my sweet friend, you can see
Trust is what I'm offering
If you trouble me
