Borrowed Sorrows

Sometimes I stare blindly
Contemplating too many sorrows
Not of my own but many that I borrow

I have too many little problems
Too little to deal with on my own
So problems I have, but they are borrowed

Let me take on your worries
On my little shoulders
Let me take on your woes
So you may have some weight lifted
And joy you can begin to know

I don't mind your burden
I don't mind the sadness it may bring
Only to have you be happy
Let it be on me
So you can have all the good things

My life won't have meaning if you don't smile
Let it rain on me
So you can have good fortune
At least for a little while
