Whisper
I’ve been true, I’ve been tried
I’ve been staying up all night
trying to remember what it was that got me here
I’ve been tattered, I’ve been torn
Think it’s time I got reborn
Won’t somebody tell me when the coast is clear

I’ve been lost, I’ve been found
I’ve been six feet underground
Another day and one less dollar to my name
Summer nights, sacrifice
Every party has its price
Won’t somebody tell me who is left to blame

Just a whisper through the trees may be all the help I need
to lift my feet up off the ground and make me high
Once upon a time, waking up was not a crime
Rember? So do I

I’ve been saved, I’ve been spent
Felt the rain soak through my tent
No telling when I’ll get to sing this song again
Faded jeans and faded dreams, busting at the seams
Won’t somebody tell my children where I’ve been

Just a whisper through the trees may be all the help I need
to lift my feet up off the ground and make me high
Once upon a time, making love was not a crime
Rember? So do I

Just a whisper through the trees may be all the help I need
to lift my feet up off the ground and make me high
Once upon a time, making peace was not a crime
Rember? So do I

Just a whisper through the trees may be all the help I need
to lift my feet up off the ground and make me high
Once upon a time, making sense was not a crime
Rember? So do I
