VERSE 1

You knew me from the start,

Before I was born

You raised me up

In a Christian home

We've built quite a thing

You and I

But I just dipped my toes in

I want the ocean

Deep and wide

Burning fire
 

VERSE 2

When I was twelve,

I made a choice,

Got buried in water

Found my true home

I went to some camps

I got a glance

You gave me scriptures of

Open doors

And I was called

To be your flower

Spread your fragrance

Through art, songs and fire
 

PRE-CHORUS 1

But sometimes I wonder
If you are still there
Do you remember me
Do you still care
 

CHORUS

Talk to me

I’ll talk to you

Whisper gently in my ear

Talk to me

I’ll talk to you

Let me hear you loud and clear
 

VERSE 3

Went through a lot

But I ended up

At a Bible school

New flame in my heart

Traveled the world

I preached your word

I had no roots

Was tired, lost and burned

Something died

Deep inside

Childhood trauma

Relationship drama
 

PRE CHORUS 2

It’s been years and years

Working through the pain

Layers torn away

Finding who I am
 

CHORUS

Talk to me

I’ll talk to you

Whisper gently in my ear

Talk to me

I’ll talk to you

Let me hear you loud and clear
 

BRIDGE

I gaze at the stars

And the moonlight above me

Longing for something

That I can’t explain

Just speak through the Bible

Through people or symbols

Through music or science

Or writings on the wall

Just talk to me

​

ENDING

Just talk to me
