Let Me Down Gently lyrics

[Verse 1]

Let me down gently

That's what I think I need

But when you let me down gently

It still feels hard, hard

Turn me into someone good

That's what I really need

Tell me that I'm someone good

So we're not so far apart, apart

[Chorus]

I hope it doesn't seem

Like I'm young foolish and green

Let me in for a minute

You're not my life but I want you in it

[Verse 2]

Set me up slowly

That's what you do to me

Oh you set me up slowly

Now I can't come down, down

Let me down gently

That's what I think you need

But when I let you down you're empty

And you try to hide your frowns, frowns

[Chorus]

I hope it doesn't seem

Like I'm young foolish and green

Let me in for a minute

You're not my life but I want you in it

And I hope it's sinking in

That behind your perfect skin

There's a part of you that's free

And I know that there's a place for me

[Verse 3]

Let me down gently

That's what I think I need

But when you let me down gently

It still feels hard, hard

Turn me into someone good

That's what I really need

Tell me that I'm someone good

So we're not so far apart, apart

[Bridge]

(Let me down, let me down)

(Let me down, let me down)

(oh won't you please let me down)

(oh won't you please let me down)

[Chorus]

I hope it doesn't seem

Like I'm young foolish and green

Let me in for a minute

You're not my life but I want you in it

And I hope it's sinking in

That behind your perfect skin

There's a part of you that's free

And I know that there's a place for me

[Outro]

How do you feel in the night

Now the feeling's left behind

As you know there was a time

When your silence left me blind

Now you're callin' from the aisle

I can see, it's denial

A denial left to slide

Now there's nothing left to hide
