My steady mountain
Weathered and strong
Bearing an earthquake
While life moves on

You carry your sorrow
And I see your heart break
And I feel more helpless
Every day

And all I can do is write these words
And sing them in a song to you
All I can say is love it hurts
To see you hurt the way you do
And all I can sing are songs to soothe

Lean on my shoulder
And I will stand tall
But your heart is to heavy 
I can't break your fall

For now you understand never
And how never feels
A sadness I've never been through
I don't grasp what that means

And all I can do is write these words
And sing them in a song to you
All I can say is love it hurts
To see you hurt the way you do
And all I can sing are 

Songs to soothe 
Can bring you warmth when life is cruel
The chords I play 
Won't make the heartach go away
I'll let the melody say

That all I can do is write these words
And sing them in a song to you
All I can say is love it hurts
To see you hurt the way you do
And all I can sing are songs to soothe
