Let It Be Me
Love's Shelter in the Storm: Let It Be Me
Lyrics
When you're faded and alone
When feeling intoxicated and isolated
And need somebody on the phone
Seeking someone to talk to
Let it be me, let it be me
Expressing willingness to be that person
When she leaves you in the rain
When experiencing heartbreak in the rain
You need a high to kill the pain
Craving a high to numb emotional pain
Let it be me, let it be me
Reiterating availability and support
And I'll show you love the way it supposed to be
Commitment to showing genuine love
Ta-da-da-da, da-da-da-da, da-da-da-ta-da-da-da
Musical interlude
Ta-da-da-da, da-da-da-da, da-da-da-ta-da-da-da
-Ta-da-da-da, da-da-da-da, da-da-da-ta-da-da-da
-Ta-da-da-da, da-da-da-da, da-da-da-ta-da-da-da
-Summer days, winter nights
Describing various times of the year
Ride or die, right by you side
Emphasizing loyalty and dedication
Killing time 'till you're ready to see I'm all you need
Waiting for the realization of being essential
You're a drunk, you're a fool
Listing imperfections and acceptance
I'm insane, so right for you
Declaring compatibility despite insanity
When the ship goes down
Metaphorically addressing challenges
Look in your dreams, that's where I'll be
Offering solace in dreams
'Cause I ne-ne-ne-need you
Expressing strong need for the person
And I la-la-la-la-love ya
Professing love
But I wanna-wanna-wanna-wanna
Desire for an extended stay
Just stay the night
When you're faded and alone
Reiteration of support and commitment
And need somebody on the phone
-Let it be me, let it be me
-When she leaves you in the rain
-You need a high to kill the pain
-Let it be me, let it be me
-And I'll show you love the way it supposed to be
-Ta-da-da-da, da-da-da-da, da-da-da-ta-da-da-da
-Ta-da-da-da, da-da-da-da, da-da-da-ta-da-da-da (And I'll show you love the way it supposed to be)
-Ta-da-da-da, da-da-da-da, da-da-da-ta-da-da-da
-Ta-da-da-da, da-da-da-da, da-da-da-ta-da-da-da
-And I'll show you love the way it supposed to be
-'Cause I ne-ne-ne-need you
Expressing intense need
And I la-la-la-la-love ya
Repeating love declaration
But I wanna-wanna-wanna-wanna
Desire for a prolonged connection
Just stay the night
Yearning for a night together
And I ne-ne-ne-need you
Reiterating strong need
And I la-la-la-la-love ya
Reaffirming love
Oh, no-no-no
Expressing reluctance to let go
I won't let you, won't let you go
Commitment to not allowing separation
When you're faded and alone
Reiteration of support and commitment with musical interlude
And need somebody on the phone
-Let it be me, let it be me
-When she leaves you in the rain
-You need a high to kill the pain
-Let it be me, let it be me
-And I'll show you love the way it supposed to be
-Ta-da-da-da, da-da-da-da, da-da-da-ta-da-da-da
-Ta-da-da-da, da-da-da-da, da-da-da-ta-da-da-da (And I'll show you love the way it supposed to be)
-Ta-da-da-da, da-da-da-da, da-da-da-ta-da-da-da
-Ta-da-da-da, da-da-da-da, da-da-da-ta-da-da-da
-And I'll show you love the way it supposed to be
