Tell Me Your Story

Tell me your story
tell it long and tell it loud.
Don't leave anything out.
I want to hear how you
came here,
I want to feel the pain of
your first love.
Tell me your ridiculous
jokes
and let me too cry at your
wedding day.

Tell me your story
tell it long and tell it loud.
Don't leave anything out.
Throw in all your dark
secrets
so I see who you are.
So I can really feel your presence.
Take all the time you need,
we have the long hours
to laugh and cry
before the sun rises.

--Pedro McMillan
