Let Me Be the One

Maybe I could be the one you adore
If you let me in, just open the door
I could be your friend, maybe more
We could see what the future has in store

I could be the one that saves your life
Removing all of your stress and strife
Removing hurt that cuts like a knife
Removing pain from this nonlife

It is only a matter of time
Before you see with open eyes
How do you know if you don’t try
Up the rungs you need to climb

Look at me and see the truth
And all I have to give to you
The color of love I can suffuse
Not like the ones that were untrue

Let me in, open your heart’s door
Let me be your friend and maybe more
Let’s see what the future has in store
Let me be the one that you adore
