Mason Jennings Lyrics: Confidant

Confidant
from Birds Flying Away

Tabs

And with the world comes misery, comes jealousy and pain
With new friends come enemies, the fortune brings the fame

And oh my dear confidant
(Tell me how you feel)
Tell me how to feel
(Tell me how you've been)
I've been overwhelmed
(Overwhelmed by what)
By what lies up ahead

Only when your heart is true
Only when your heart is true
'Till you learn to trust yourself
Put your trust in someone else

And with new love comes mystery, comes fear you can't define
And with new love comes history, old stars that won't align

Oh my dear confidant
(Tell me how you feel)
Tell me how to feel
(Tell me how you've been)
I've been overwhelmed
(Overwhelmed by what)
By what lies up ahead

Only when your heart is true
Only when your heart is true
'Till you learn to trust yourself
Put your trust in someone else

Only when your heart is true
Only when your heart is true
'Till you learn to trust yourself
Put your trust in someone else

And with the world comes misery, comes jealousy and pain
And with new friends come enemies, the fortune brings the fame

And oh my dear confidant
(Tell me how you feel)
Tell me how to feel
(Tell me how you've been)
I've been overwhelmed
(Overwhelmed by what)
By what lies up ahead

Only when your heart is true
Only when your heart is true
'Till you learn to trust yourself
Put your trust in someone else
