[Verse 1] I won't be somebody else But I know that you want me to I don't need nobody's help Never felt so close to you [Chorus] Be my burden, be my burden Be my burden, be my burden When it's all dried up And your love is spent When I tried to stop before you went My heart is broken, was that my token? But love is certain, oh be my burden [Verse 2] And through the plumes of smoke You let the water soak in And I'll ask you what you've done Collect the settled dust My vision won't adjust when I was not the only one [Chorus][x2] Be my burden, be my burden Be my burden, be my burden When it's all dried up And your love is spent When I tried to stop before you went My heart is broken, was that my token? But love is certain, oh be my burden
