Let me down slow and easy

'Cos there ain't nothin' I can do

I hope and pray my faith won't leave me

When it comes down to me and you

Try a little tenderness

I die a little for a long lost sweet caress

You lyin' next to me fulfilled some destiny

I wanna cry but I breathe a sigh

Just a little bit of letting go

I don't want you to know

I wanna cry but I breathe a sigh

Overflow of emotion

And a hurt that'll never heal

If you close the door forever

The fate of pain is sealed

Try a little tenderness

I die a little for a long lost sweet caress

You lyin' next to me - it's outta my head

Fulfilled some destiny - and into my heart

I wanna cry but I breathe a sigh

Just a little bit of letting go - take a new day

I don't want you to know - and make a new start

I wanna cry but I breathe a sigh

I more than long for your affection

I love you day and night

I tell you now that it ain't so

I want you more than life

Not even gentle persuasion

Fulfill some destiny

Is ever gonna let me go

I wanna say

You lyin' next to me - it's outta my head

Fulfilled some destiny - and into my heart

I wanna cry but I breathe a sigh

Just a little bit of letting go - take a new day

I don't want you to know - and make a new start

I wanna cry but I breathe a sigh

Won't you let me breathe

Won't you let me breathe

Won't you let me breathe

Won't you let me breathe
