To Comfort You Lyrics by Bette Midler

To Comfort You Lyrics

    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.
