Tell Your Story

Hey there

I see you’re hurting

What’s on your mind?

Tell me, what is troubling you?

Won’t you sit down?

And tell me your story

And I will tell you mine

It’s the most healin’ thing we can do

Now you may see my

Oh my smiling face yeah

Don’t you let it mislead you to think

I haven’t had troubles too

Never compare your inside

With somebody’s outside

Cause I can guarantee that’s a recipe

For feelin’ blue

I'm no stranger to pain, I'm no stranger to suffering, hey, hey, hey

Or to lie in the night awake tossing and turnin’, or to pray

For release from the anguish of blame of myself, I know that too

Let’s tell our story, and it’ll help us through

I was a prisoner

One of my very own thoughts

Peace of mind I would have bought

At any price, I tell you

And a man told his story

How he suffered and was healed

And his answer he revealed

And I thought I can make it too

He’s no stranger to pain, he’s no stranger to suffering, hey, hey, hey

Or to lie in the night awake tossing and turnin’, or to pray

For release from the anguish of blame of himself, he knows that too

He told me his story, and it helped me through

So tomorrow

If you meet someone hurting

You might tell them your story

It’s the most healin’ thing you can do

You’re no stranger to pain you’re no stranger to suffering, hey, hey, hey

Or to lie in the night awake tossing and turnin’, or to pray

For release from the anguish of blame of yourself, you know that too

You can tell your story, and it’ll help them through, hey

We’re no stranger to pain, we’re no stranger to suffering, hey, hey, hey

Or to lie in the night awake tossing and turnin’, or to pray

For release from the anguish of blame of ourselves, we know that too

Let’s tell our story, it’ll help us through
