Let Me Love You
Let me love you all over again
And quiet the suffering dwelling in smiling eyes
Let me take away the tears that drench your pillow
At the darkest pitch of night
When you think no one hears you
I hear you, I listen
Let me be those hands that pull you
Shake you, bring you back to the land of the living
Let me feed you
When you’re too worn down to eat
And spoil you when you least expect it
Let me tease you, and frighten you
With laughter, with tears, with your concern
Let me show you how much I love you
When you have those shaky doubts
Let me tell you that nothing else matters
But you and me and this bubble we dwell in
Let me show you my anger and my hate
So you could feel those repressed emotions
And learn to soothe them when they strike
Let me say I do not love you
So you could tell me but I love you
And id smile and push you away
So you could pull me back again
Let me speak of our unborn children
And how much you’d spoil them
And what are the names we’d name them
And when we’d have them
Let me shed light on all the things you still don’t know of me
Let me let you understand me
And calm me down when I explode
When I hurt and tear
With words that are yet too simple
Let us be everything we’re not supposed to be
And do everything they tell us not to
Let me let you love me
And shush me when I tell you not to
Let me show you all over again
Everyday
How much you mean to this universe of mine
How you are a fight
I’d never back down on.
