Lyrics

This is the farthest I've fallen since I don't know when
So far that my heart can't imagine me hoping again
Too sure to give up, but it's gotten so hard to give in
That's why I'm asking you please
To be gentle with me

Ashamed of this fear and the errors it leads me to make
I'm a slave to a heart that's so brittle and easy to break
And now I'm in awe of these chances I'm willing to take
That's why I'm asking you please
To be gentle with me

-Chorus-
Be gentle with me, I'm not quite ready
To carry the weight of a love strong and steady
And I don't want this weakness of mine to poison the promise I see
Be patient and kind, be careful and caring
With the heart and the mind and the soul that I'm sharing
Do what you must and I trust you'll be gentle with me

Now I am inspired by this fire that's been missing so long
I'm finally living to learn and to grow and be strong
Becoming the man you've said that you've wanted so long
But until I get there, if you care
Please be gentle with me

-Chorus-

So don't be dismayed by the sureness I'm seeming to lack
With you in this garden I'm tending it's sure to grow back
Why in no time at all I'm sure I'll be up and on track
That's why I'm asking you please
To be gentle with me

-Chorus-

Oh, do what you must and I trust you'll be gentle with me
