TAKE FROM ME © Karyn Ellis

I don't know why I laugh so much when you're holding me
Well, I do know but I can't explain
Well, I could explain but I kind of frightened now.

Take from me what words cannot bring
Take from me what words can't contain
Take from me the truths in my mouth.

In the silence that falls the means transcend meaning
When we're talking about feeling
When the shy enters body, body responds... body pulls away
Hold me closer, give me space or
Give yourself room to understand my ground.

Take from me what words cannot bring
Take from me what words can't contain
Take from me the truths in my mouth.

Well this may stay a simple song for you and no one else to hear.
Or I may sing louder, lay me down open and plain
Give the world our hands to stain with it's labels but not our hearts.

Take from me what words cannot bring
Take from me what words can't contain
Take from me the truths in my mouth.
