Analysis of Talk To Me Today
Kimberly Tenold 2008 (Missouri)
If you do anything for me in this world
Talk to me today
By some miracle of god
You could be my saving grace
Get me down from the ledge I'm on
Bring me home
Pull me close so I don't feel alone
Change me from my heart of stone
Unbreak me deeper than my bones
I'll let you in on all my fears
Tell you every messed up joke
I know you don't want to hear
And if you could
For the night
Would you stay?
