Lyrics 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
While 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 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

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
