Little Girl Sorrow

[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
