I wrote this the other day while cleaning. (I was alone in the house, which tends to inspire loud singing. ;) )
If you'd like to hear the tune, the link is at the bottom of the post.
Please Tell Me So
9/13/14
There's a story that I wish you'd tell,
You think you're hiding, but I know you fell -
But my love for you will never sell,
The pain you hide below.
So raise your head up from the undertow
Raise your hands and just let go -
I know you wish that you could tell me so,
Oh please, my dear, let go!
I see you suffer with a silent cry,
You never tell me and I don't know why,
You say it's okay, but that is a lie -
I wish you'd let me know.
So raise your head up from the undertow
Raise your hands and just let go -
I know you wish that you could tell me so,
Oh please, my dear, let go!
There are memories still backed by tears,
You are drowning in a thousand fears,
But I have stood by you through all these years,
And I won't let you go!
So raise your head up from the undertow
Raise your hands and just let go -
I know you wish that you could tell me so,
Oh please, my dear, let go!
And then you tell me of a weary fight,
Of a blackness that has stole your light,
So I hold you on this weary night -
My friend, I won't let go.
I'll hold your head up from the undertow,
I'll stand beside you and take each blow,
God will be with us, I trust, I know,
My friend, I love you so.
