Tell me something that
I don’t often hear
Words that make me smile
When whispered in my ear
For once I’ll wait upon it
Of the words I hold so dear

I’ve always been concerned
That I would die alone
Laying by myself
No one to hear my groan
And when the hour came
I would be left only as flesh and bone

So whisper what you will
And spill in me your heart
I want to hear those easy words
So my life again may start
That you’re less afraid of loving me
Than being torn apart
