Deb Talan

I was at Tabitha's place some time back, doing my assignments, and i overheard a song she was playing. The contributing artist was Deb Talan and the song she was playing was, "Forgiven." I fell in love with it immediately! Tabitha gave me a few other mp3s and I downloaded a few too, and so now i have 8 songs in my stash so far. And i already love every one of them! The one on the tippy top of my Deb Talan Chart at the mo, has just GOT to be, "Comfort." So here it is. The lyrics.

When everyone has gone to sleep
And you are wide awake

there's no one left to tell your troubles to

Just an hour ago, you listened to their voices

lilting like a river over underground

and the light from downstairs came up soft like daybreak

dimly as the heartache of a lonely child

If you can't remember a better time

you can have mine, little one

In days to come when your heart feels undone

may you always find an open hand

and take comfort wherever you can

And oh, it's a strange place

And oh, everyone with a different face

but just like you thought
when you stopped here to linger

we're only as separate as your little fingers

So cry, why not? we all do

then turn to one you love

and smile a smile that lights up all the room

Follow your dreams in through every out-door

it seems that's what we're here for

And when you can't remember a better time

you can have mine, little one

In days to come when your heart feels undone

may you always find an open hand

and take comfort, there is comfort

Take comfort wherever you can, you can,

You can.
