If You Let Me

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?
