Talk To Me Gently

Father, I'm a wayward son

Caught between the right and the wrong

Nursing a heartache

Seeing everything but the writing on the wall

So I'm down on my knees in prayer

Crying out 'cause the truth isn't clear

In all this confusion

I'm crying for your love and the healing words you share

Talk to me gently again

You can see that I need you

Talk to me gently again

Don't leave me like this

Far from your guiding hand

Missing everything you had planned

All for no reason

You're the only one with an understanding word

Talk to me gently again

I'm longing to hear you

Talk to me gently again

I'm waiting right here

Give me reassurance

Talk to me gently again

So many lies found concealed in the smiling faces I can't fight

There's no more laughter, there's no more sleep because I'm up all night

I feel abandoned, I feel so betrayed, my trust is gone

My faith is shaking, where are the friends that I counted on?

I'm counting on you

Talk to me gently again

You can see that I'm lonely

Talk to me gently again

Don't leave me like this

Give me reassurance

Talk to me gently again

Talk to me gently

Talk to me gently

Talk to me gently again!
