Songs to Soothe

Songs to Soothe - Jacqueline Govaert

My steady mountain

Weathered and strong

Burying earthquake when life moves on

You carry a 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 too heavy

I can't break your fall

For now you understand never

And how never feels

And sad is 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

That bring you warmth when life is cruel

The chords I play will make the heartache go away

I 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

So all I can sing are songs to soothe
