Little Girl Sorrow

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Little girl sorrow comes knocking at my door I give her what I can, but she always wants more And I want to borrow the future so it doesn't hurt But I know it's gotta hurt [Chorus] Grief stays outside your house until you let it in Sits down for tea and you tell it about where you've been And it listens, and you feel And it whispers, and you heal And suddenly it leaves you free [Verse 2] Oh, Goliath, guilt is hiding in my cupboard She dresses me up in darkness till I'm covered And I want to skip to forgiveness, disguise all my doubts But I've gotta face it now [Chorus] Grief stays outside your house until you let it in Sits down for tea and you tell it about where you've been And it listens, and you feel And it whispers, and you heal And suddenly it leaves you free [Verse 3] My friend peace is out there somewhere waiting Sitting in sunlight, smiling ever patient And I want to tell her I'm coming, but she already knows As soon as I let it go [Chorus] Grief stays outside your house until you let it in Sits down for tea and you tell it about where you've been And it listens, and you feel And it whispers, and you heal And suddenly it leaves you Suddenly it leaves you free
