Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I have seen peace

I have seen pain

Resting on the shoulders of your name

Do you see the truth through all their lies?

Do you see the world through troubled eyes?

[Chorus]

And if you want to talk about it any more

Lie here on the floor

And cry

On my shoulder

I'm a friend

[Verse 2]

I have seen birth

I have seen death

Lived to see a lover's final breath

Do you see my guilt?

Should I feel fright?

Is the fire of hesitation burning bright?

[Chorus]

And if you want to talk about it once again

On you I depend

I'll cry

On your shoulder

You're a friend

[Bridge]

You and I have lived through many things

I'll hold on to your heart

I wouldn't cry for anything

But don't go tearing your life apart

[Verse 3]

I have seen fear

I have seen faith

Seen the look of anger on your face

[Chorus]

And if you want to talk about what will be

Come and sit with me

And cry

On my shoulder

I'm a friend

[Chorus]

And if you want to talk about it any more

Lie here on the floor

Cry

On my shoulder

Once again

Cry

On my shoulder

I'm a friend
