I Can Feel Your Pain

I can feel your pain Oh, I can feel your pain you try so hard to hide but I know you feel it inside Oh, I can feel your pain I know just how you feel when darkness fills your soul When you can't escape your shadow I know just how you feel Chorus I know you, have been beat down and feel there's nothing left and I know that, when you came back you, just wanted to forget and I know you think it's no good trying, to make up for the past and, all that you have done I know it's hard to say, but the sun shines after the rain oh, I can feel your pain. Oh I know it's hard to breathe when there's pressure on your lungs hard to believe that you're so young I know it's hard to breathe You feel the world will end and you'll be left alone with no-one you can call your own you feel the world will end Chorus I know you, have been beat down and feel there's nothing left and I know that, when you came back you just wanted to forget and I know you think it's no good trying, to make up for the past and, all that you have done I know it's hard to say, but the sun shines after the rain oh, I can feel your pain. Well, now you're safe and sound There's no-one, to hurt you I'm the one you can tell your troubles to Well, now you're safe and sound Oh, I can feel your pain you try so hard to hide but, I know you feel it deep inside Oh, I can heal your pain. Chorus repeat fade to zero John Derek Hamilton May 25,2017

This could be a good companion piece for my last one. Everyone can use this kind of compassion.

A warm glass of milk on a winter night, John. I dug the subtle changes in the chorus as it moved towards the resolution.

Really nice John. This is definitely a feel good song. Starts out a little sad but ends with a smile. That always nice to find
