Lyrics

[00:04.00] Trouble
[00:09.12] Trouble me
[00:11.73] Disturb me with all your cares and your worries.
[00:17.85] Trouble me
[00:20.20] On the days when you feel spent.
[00:25.88] Why let your shoulders bend
[00:29.35] Underneath this burden when my back is sturdy and strong?
[00:39.60] Trouble me.
[00:40.50]
[00:40.75] Speak to me
[00:43.11] Don't mislead me, the calm I feel means a storm is swelling;
[00:51.28] There's no telling where it starts or how it ends.
[00:56.76] Speak to me
[00:59.35] Why are you building this thick brick wall
[01:03.27] To defend me when your silence is my greatest fear?
[01:13.23] Why let your shoulders bend
[01:16.84] Underneath this burden when my back is sturdy and strong?
[01:26.59] Speak to me
[01:27.76]
[01:29.21] Let me
[01:30.95] Have a look inside these eyes while I'm learning.
[01:37.54] Let me
[01:38.98] Please don't hide them just because of tears.
[01:45.41] Let me
[01:46.24] Send you off to sleep with a
[01:48.80] "There, there, now stop your turning and tossing."
[01:53.05] Let me
[01:55.07] Know where the hurt is and how to heal.
[02:00.60]
[02:01.81] Spare me, spare me
[02:08.72] Don't spare me anything troubling.
[02:17.83] Trouble me
[02:26.08] Trouble me
[02:27.85] Disturb me with all your cares and your worries.
[02:34.24] Speak to me
[02:35.54] And let our words build a shelter from the storm.
[02:40.86] Let me
[02:44.19] And lastly
[02:45.31] Let me know what I can mend.
[02:49.88] There's more, honestly, than my sweet friend, you can see.
[02:58.06] Trust is what I'm offering if you trouble me.
