Lyrics for I Had To Tell You

Chaos all around me With its fevered clinging But I can hear you singing In the corners of my brain Every doubt has found me Every sound of riot Everything is quiet But the song that keeps me sane I can hear your voice Echoing my voice softly I can feel your strength Reinforcing mine If you fear I'll lose my spirit Like a drunkard's wasted wine Don't you even think about it I'm feelin' fine I can hear your voice Echoing my voice softly I can feel your strength Reinforcing mine If you fear I'll lose my spirits Like a drunkard's wasted wine Don't you even think about it I'm feelin' fine...
