Burden Lyrics

Let me carry your burden
If something's not right I will let you know
Like the paint that's drying on a heart that's poor
Let me carry your burden
Get you back on a high when you're feeling low
When the weight is too heavy but you won't let go

Come to me, my brother, and I will sit with you a while
Pretty soon I'll see you smile and you know you will
No matter how much you're hurting right now
You know that everything will change in time
So let me carry your burden

Let me carry your burden
When your might's on fire but your mind is cold
And you're fighting flames that won't keep you warm

Come to me, my brother, and I will sit with you a while
Pretty soon I'll see you smile and you know you will
No matter how much you're hurting right now
You know that everything will change in time
Let me carry your burden, oh brother of mine

Let me carry your burden
Come tomorrow you'll be right as rain
In a quench of fire wash away your stain

Oh come to me, my brother, and I will sit with you a while
Pretty soon I see you smile and you know you will
No matter how much you're hurting right now
You know that everything will change in time
Oh, I just might see you in another light
Got no dog here in the fight
I could carry your burden, oh brother of mine
