To Comfort You - Bette Midler

Youve been down in the dumps

It seems like forever.

Now, what have they done to you?

Not a single things turned out

The way you imagined.

It all looks unreachable to you.

You dont know for the life of you

What is missing,

Or why it always happens to you.

And you dont like yourself,

You feel nobodys listening.

You dont need another platitude.

For a moment you forget

And a smile comes to your face.

Aah, but it doesnt last too long.

Its like a string you got tied

Around your finger

Reminding you of Everything thats wrong.

I wont try to say I know what youre feeling.

I wont try to second guess you.

I wont try to give advice you wont be needing.

Im only here to comfort you.

Im only here to comfort you.

And Id love to be the reason

A smile somes to your face,

Even if it doesnt last too long.

And Id love to take that string

Youve got tied around your finger

Reminding you of everything thats wrong.

I wont try to say I know what youre feeling.

I wont try to second guess you.

I wont try to give advice you wont be needing.

Im only here to comfort you.

Im only here to comfort you.

Im only here to comfort you.
