If You Let Me - Beth Crowley

What if I never had met you

I wonder, would it have been worse?

Not ever knowing the happiness

If it meant I was spared from the hurt

It’s clear that you want her

She looks like a picture

Like inside I’m silently screaming

I could love you

I could be the one who holds you

When the world comes crashing down

So you don’t ever feel alone

I could love you

If you trust me with your heart, I’d

Keep it safe like it was mine

Be your shelter from the storm

If you let me

If you let me

I thought you were mine for a moment

One flickering glimmer of hope

All at once it was like I enchanted you

Just as quickly, the magic was gone

So I’ll do what’s best

And hold back from confessing

In secret, I’m quietly dying

I could love you

I could be the one who holds you

When the world comes crashing down

So you won’t ever feel alone

I could love you

If you trust me with your heart, I’d

Keep it safe like it was mine

Be your shelter from the storm

If you let me

If you let me

What am I supposed to do

If nobody ever lives up to you?

I could love you

I could be the one who holds you

When the world comes crashing down

So you won’t ever feel alone

I could love you

If you trust me with your heart, I’d

Keep it safe like it was mine

Be your shelter from the storm

If you let me

If you let me

What am I supposed to do

If nobody ever lives up to you?
