"Vulnerable"

2014 has been interesting so far, to say the least. A good friend pointed this song out to me the other night, and I can think of at least only one person to whom I would dare sing this to in my off-kilter voice. I wonder if this song can be played on Mandolin? My uncle's letting me borrow his mandolin so I can play around on it for a little bit. My voice and my attempts to play this song on Mandolin would be memorable indeed, albeit not in the good way like you want!


Share with me the blankets that you're wrapped in,
because it's cold outside, cold outside, it's cold outside.
Share with me the secrets that you kept in,
because it's cold inside, cold inside, it's cold inside.

And you're slowly shaking fingertips,
show that you're scared like me,
so let's pretend we're alone.
And i know you may be scared,
and I know we're unprepared, but I don't care.

Tell me, tell me, what makes you think that you are invincible?
Please don't tell me that I'm the only one that's vulnerable.

I was born to tell you I love you.
Isn't that a song already?
I get a B in originality, and it's true:
I can't go on without you.
Your smile makes me see clearer.
If you could only see in the mirror what I see.

Slow down girl--you're not going anywhere.
Just wait around and see.
Maybe I am much more, you never know what lies ahead.
I promise I can be anyone, I can be anything.
Just because you were hurt doesn't mean you shouldn't bleed.
I can be anyone, anything,

I promise I can be what you need.
