You're looking preoccupied; what's up with you today?
Are you feeling alright?  Are you okay?
I hope you know that, if you're hurting, I'm always here for you
Feel free to open up to me `cause frankly you're looking morethan blue
Please, don't hold it in—I can't stand to see you stressed
Worried, hurting, pissed off or depressed
I don't want you to shut me out. 
I wantto be involved
So, let's talk about your problem and hope it can be solved

Don't you know I've got you back? 
You don't have to struggle on your own
To know me is to knowthat, in your time of need, you'll neverbe alone
I know that this world is crazy and some folks are full of shit
Believe me, I understandyour woes, so, please, let's talk about it

Why won't you tell me what you're going through?
Concern is one of the many aspects I have in loving you
When the world is on your shoulders, I'll help you bear the weight
You've always been an aide to me—I want to reciprocate
It's time to end your silence—let me listen to what you have to say
Stress can begin to hurt you, if you hold it in all day
Put your head on my shoulder and your heart in my hands
You can trust me with your feelings—that, I hopeyou understand
 
~
 
Let's sit down and get to the bottom of this
Cause all I've ever wanted was your happiness
I can understand that `being strong' may be your source of pride
But, sometimes, the moststrength lies in showing your softerside
I won't see you as a punk if you shed a few tears—feel free to vent and express
In the long run, it'll take a load off and unload a lot of stress
With an open heart and open arms, I'm here to comfort you
So, please, let's talk about it—I'm listening to you
