Please Don't Let Me
Yearning in the Night: Dylan Gerard's Plea for Love
Lyrics
Please don't let me make you let me come over there
Please don't let me persuade you to allow me to come over
I'm sorry that I'm sorry that I'm calling you again
I apologize for repeatedly reaching out to you
I'm drinkin' and I'm thinkin' bout what we could've been Just tell me no or tell me go before I begin
I'm intoxicated and reflecting on what our relationship could have been. Advise me to proceed or stop before I initiate anything
It's the same routine, I'm so damn weak and I know how this'll end So please don't let me make you let me come over there
Expressing awareness of a recurring pattern, admitting personal weakness, and anticipating the likely outcome
I've been tangled up in your love In a web that you've cast I've been strung along for so long With your no strings attached
Describing being entangled in a romantic relationship, feeling strung along without commitment
These feelings that I'm feeling Make me leave them unsaid Baby please have mercy Help me put this to bed
Conflicted emotions and a plea for compassion to help resolve the situation
So please don't let me make you let me come over there
Reiteration of the plea not to allow the speaker to come over
I'm sorry that I'm sorry that I'm calling you again
Apologizing again for making another call
I'm drinkin' and I'm thinkin' bout what we could've been Just tell me no or tell me go baby before I begin
Repeating the contemplation of what the relationship could have been and seeking clear guidance
It's the same routine, I'm so damn weak and I know how this'll end So please don't let me make you let me come over there
Acknowledging the familiar and predictable nature of the situation
This silver tongue has got me some Some trouble in the past Won't you help me lose you
Referring to the speaker's ability to talk persuasively, causing problems in the past
Is that too much to ask
A request for assistance in letting go
Please don't let me make you let me
Repetition of the plea not to allow the speaker to proceed
Please don't let me make you let me come over there, babe I'm sorry that I'm sorry that I'm calling you again
Reiteration of the plea with an apology for calling again
I'm drinkin' and I'm thinkin' bout what we could've been It's one A.M. I'm drunk again and I won't deny
Describing the current state of intoxication and contemplation, emphasizing the late hour
It's the same ol' me I'm so damn weak just tell me goodbye Please don't let me make you let me come over there
Admitting to being the same person, expressing personal weakness, and seeking confirmation to say goodbye
