Be Gentle

Baby can you hear me there
I know you're hanging by a thread
My misery needs company
That's why I said the things I said
Standing in the ruins of us I realised
The damage I've done

Heaven knows I didn't come to get you back and make it right
I'm only here to tell you now I see you in a different light
In the end you need to know the things I said
Are not who you are

So baby be gentle with yourself
You know you're like no one else
Down to your soul
You really are beautiful
Really are beautiful

I'm sorry that I broke your trust
I wasn't strong there for you
I never heard a word you said
Or took the proper care of you
Looking at the heart of it
It's obvious to see I was wrong

Please ignore the consequence of uglyness,
I wear so well
Please forget the bitter words
That locked you in my prison cell
I won't try to argue with
We both know you got every right
To hate me

But baby be gentle with yourself
You know you're like no one else
Down to your soul
You really are beautiful

So baby pick your dreams up off the shelf
Wish all your ghosts farewell
Tell them you know
You really are beautiful

Lift your head
You never were broken,
Lift my mess
Blame it on me

Baby, so promise you'd be gentle with yourself
You know you're like no one else
Down to your soul
You really are beautiful

So baby pick your dreams up off the shelf
Wish all your ghosts fare well
Tell them you know
You really are beautiful
Really are beautiful
