I recall a time in my life when I was scared to share my heart
with anyone
Afraid of who I really was I'd hide behind a wall
where no one could see
Then the stones that formed the wall began to crumble
And your whisper knocked me off my feet
And took me to my knees
When you said, talk to me, let's have a conversation
I hear more than just words, I can hear down in your soul
So talk to me, I'll do more than listen
I stood where you're standing
And I know just how you feel
Talk to me, talk to me
Aimless I'd go searching for a twisted play on words,
That made me feel I was alright
Striving for perfection when the only perfect thing I had
was weakness
Then strength began to build in me
All it took was Your words to get me to my knees,
And You said...
Talk to me, let's have a conversation
I hear more than just words, I can hear down in your soul
Won't you talk to me, I'll do more than listen
I stood where you're standing and I know just how you feel
Talk to me, I've been right where you are
I know every breath you take, every feeling in your heart
Talk to me, tell me what you're feeling
Know I'm always here for you, whenever you need me
And the stones that formed the wall began to crumble
All it took was Your words to get me to my knees
