Bette Midler — To Comfort You

You've been down in the dumps It seems like forever Now, what have they done to you? Not a single thing's turned out The way you imagined It all looks unreachable to you You don't know for the life of you What is missing Or why it always happens to you And you don't like yourself You feel nobody's listening You don't need another platitude For a moment you forget And a smile comes to your face Aah, but it doesn't last too long It's like a string you got tied Around your finger Reminding you of Everything that's wrong I won't try to say I know what you're feeling I won't try to second guess you I won't try to give advice you won't be needing I'm only here to comfort you I'm only here to comfort you And I'd love to be the reason A smile somes to your face Even if it doesn't last too long And I'd love to take that string You've got tied around your finger Reminding you of everything that's wrong I won't try to say I know what you're feeling I won't try to second guess you I won't try to give advice you won't be needing I'm only here to comfort you I'm only here to comfort you I'm only here to comfort you
