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.
