Isabelle

I’d like to give you some peace today,
I think you need it,
And I have enough to give away.
As I slept deeply last night,
And I woke to hear you cry,
You’re crying “why, why me?”

I learnt your name was Isabelle,
I heard him scream it,
You stood there frowning silently.
You ran so fast in the storm,
I prayed you wouldn’t fall,
Tears and all.

Strength to you Isabelle,
It’ll be alright.
No more anger Isabelle,
Your soul is calling out.
This unseen stranger’s singing,
I’m singing for you,
Tears and all.

I’d like to send a smile your way,
Help to heal you,
and I don’t think you’ve had one all day.
As I lie peaceful and warm tonight the sky begins to rain,
It’s raining tears for you.

So now I’m singing a song for you,
And I hope you feel it,
As it’s all I know how to do.
And now I’m on the road again,
I hope that you are free, as free as me,
I hope that you are free,
As free as me.

Strength to you Isabelle,
It’ll be alright.
No more anger Isabelle,
Your soul, your soul’s calling out.
This unseen stranger’s singing,
I’m singing for you,
Tears and all.

This unseen strangers singing for you,
Tear and all.
Singing for you, Tears and all.
