Lyrics

I can’t help it if I feel the weight of the world
I am made of this stuff what would you have me to feel
Yes I know of all the beauty i feel it too
But sometimes the heavy is too much to bear

But I will bear it. I’ll take it all in
I’ll sit with it like a child until we smile again
We like you and me and all the moons and stars
We like a village, a collection of hearts

‘Cause when you hurt I hurt, I’m the tender hearted kind
Do you feel it too, your pain and mine
Just open up your heart that’s what it’s for
Stare down the fear creeping at your door.

So I will go on with the weight of the world
I’ll carry you as I go still sometimes I will fail
Yes I know the struggle is what makes us strong
But sometimes the darkness can take so long

‘Cause when you hurt I hurt, I’m the tender hearted kind
Do you feel it too, your pain and mine
Just open up your heart that’s what it’s for
Stare down the fear creeping at your door.

‘Cause when you love, I love. We’re the tender hearted kind
I know you feel it too, was just a matter of time
We’ll open up our hearts, that’s what they're for
We’ll love a lot, and then a whole lot more

When you love, I love. We’re the tender hearted kind
I know you feel it too, was just a matter of time
We’ll open up our hearts, that’s what they're for
We’ll love a lot, and then a whole lot more
