alk to me baby I'm listening

Hook
Lay down and tell me what's on your mind
What exactly did he do to make you cry this time
Well I will be your comforter I will make it right
He cast a shadow on your heart and I will bring back your light

Come in I see he's hurt you again
When you are in pain I'm in pain
That's part of bring a friend
But this is a special case
I held my feelings back because of him
And now I can see it more than ever
I made a big mistake

Hook

I don't mean to disregard your feelings
But I think he's a fool
He don't know how sensitive you are
And baby that just ain't cool
I'm just glad I can be there for you
When you need a helping hand
Deep inside my heart from the start
I know I should've been your man

Shai

Shai (also spelt Sai, occasionally Shay, and in Greek, Psais) was the deification of the concept of fate in Egyptian mythology. As a concept, with no particular reason for associating one gender over another, Shai was sometimes considered female, rather than the more usual understanding of being male, in which circumstance Shai was referred to as Shait (simply the feminine form of the name). His name reflects his function, as it means (that which is) ordained. more »
