Lay your burdens on me,
I will carry them
as you have carried me
even without you knowing.
You are my strength,
let me be your willow,
I may bend with all
your sorrows,
but I will never
break the trust you
have in me.
So rest, hold me
and let your
fears melt away,
if only for
the moments that
we are together.
