I Will Let You Down
© M. Hart 2011 (ASCAP)
Do you / want to / be with me?
I can’t /ask it / gracefully
Honest / faithful / self-controlled
But when you’re / sleeping / I’m not home
Say the word and I will let you down
Say the word and I will let you down
I know now / what must be / to keep the peace
A good man / a bad deed / and sweet release
Cuz if you / close this door on me
I won’t / own your / misery
Say the word and I will let you down
Say the word and I will let you down
Cuz I’ll be working nights on all the days you’re dreaming of
So let’s just finish off whatever’s left of me to love
Say the word and I will let you down
See, can’t you see, this is mercy
See, can’t you see, this is mercy
See, can’t you see, this is mercy (mercy, mercy, oh mercy)
See, can’t you see, this is mercy
Say the word and I will let you down
Say the word and I will let you down
Cuz I been working night on all the days you’re dreaming of
So let’s just finish off whatever’s left of me to love
Say the word and I will let you down
