I wish I could carry your pain
But I can’t
But I can be here for you to try and ease the load
I wish I could share your burden
But I can’t
But I can listen when your burden becomes too much
I wish I could make you see that things will get better
But I can’t
But I can show you ways of handling it better
I wish that I could lead you in the right direction
But I can’t
But I can show you different, better roads that are there for you
I wish I could tell you that you won’t have hard decisions to make
But I can’t
But I can be there if you need to talk them through
I wish that I could stop the tears
But I can’t
But I can hold the tissue box with my arm around you
I wish I could carry your pain
But I can’t........
