While I can't tell you how I'm feeling, I can play you a song. I can string together chords That tell tales much larger than mine And that stretch from the mountains to the sea You'd be surprised. How a song can bring you to a foggy day And you can almost smell the rain And hear every little droplet which remains You'd be surprised. How a melody can show you a field Filled with a fresh snowfall And how you can feel the cold On your bare skin You'd be surprised. So when I sing to you The tale of my struggles and confusion You'll feel what I felt And you will hug me. Because you'll feel the pain in my chest And you'll wonder how I managed to breathe all this time You'd be surprised.
