The soft words that need to be spoken
Sometimes the silence needs to be broken

Three simple words that can save a life
Three simple words and she'll put down that knife

She's been hurt and you feel her pain
When she cries she does for days

Three simple words to wipe her tears
Three simple words to calm her fears

She's afraid of the dark so be her night light
She's afraid of being alone so hold her tight

Three simple words and she'll fall asleep
Three simple words and she's yours to keep

She's afraid of silence but she's afraid of talking
She's afraid of watching you leave, you keep on walking

Three simple words to show her you care
Three simple words that both of you can share
