Tell Me What You Ache For

(album: Pretty Bird - 2018)

It doesn't interest me what kind of job you got
Where you eat or where you shop
The kind of car you drive
It doesn't interest me how big a house you own
What I really want to know
Is what makes you come alive

I don't want to talk about
How your future's all planned out
That isn't what it's all about to me

Tell me what you ache for
Tell me what you wait for
Tell me what you long for
What you're holding on for
Tell me what you're dreaming
What would give your life real meaning
You've been afraid to pray for
Tell me what you ache for

It doesn't interest me if your planets are aligned
If your signs are well defined
And your career is right on track
It doesn't interest me
If you're faithful and you're true
If you're not true to you
Then where's the truth in that
I don't want to waste our time
Comparing all our stars and signs
That's not what makes us shine, to me

Tell me what you ache for
Tell me what you wait for
Tell me what you long for
What you're holding on for
Tell me what you're wishing
If there's something that seems missing
That somehow you've been saved for
Tell me what you ache for

It doesn't frighten me, those secrets deep within you
I won't walk through fire for you but
I'll walk through the fire with you

So, tell me what you ache for
Tell me what you wait for
Tell me what you long for
What you're holding on for
Tell me what you're dreaming
What would give your life real meaning
That deep down your heart breaks for
Tell me what you ache for
Tell me what you ache for
