This Is The Burden

I can't follow you anymore
My mind needs a break that's well deserved, yes it is
It's taken me so long just to get to this point
I'm askin' will you take my burden on

Many nights I've sat and listened to you cry
Many times I've thought to cry on my own, yes I have
You know I always smile through the doubt
Now I've got this burden to smile through

You see I blame myself for lettin' it all add up
A man can go mighty far on his own, yes he can
It may be selfish of me layin' this all out
I'm askin' will you taken my burden on

Yes at times it's heavy
Yes at times it'll hurt
Remember now you're the one who said this'll work

When you get a chance to rest yourself a while
Think about this burden of mine
This is the burden you are takin' on

You know I always smile through the doubt
This is the burden you are takin' on
This is the burden you are takin' on, yes it is
This is the burden you are takin' on
