Let Me Be
Ch
Let me be…Let me be happy.
Happy when you let me be… Happy by myself; alone.
V1
My first impression when I saw your face; across the room in a darken place.
Should I buy you a drink to ease your pain, I’ve never tried this; have I gone insane.
You accept; I see you walk my way, adjust my seat; think of what to say.
You sat down and thanked me with a smile; minutes later I stared at the tile.
PCh1
I sat there stunned hoping it would end…
Who’d of thought someone like you could pretend.
Pardon me but could you please leave and…
Ch
Let me be…Let me be happy.
Happy when you let me be… Happy by myself; alone.
Can’t you see, can’t you see me happy?
Happy to be free of you. Happy that you’re finally gone.
V2
My next impression in a different place; saw a new person with a different face.
I tried it again, now I know you’re to blame.
You bought me that drink, now I’m going insane.
We danced awhile; felt just fine. The way we were going I knew you’d be mine
Then your lover walked in and you ran away, left me standing with nothing to say.
PCh2
Round two came and went; shot down again and I feel spent.
Part of me’s so very glad you…
Repeat Chorus
V3
The next place I went was a seedy place, you couldn’t even see anyone’s face.
Smoke so thick; it burned my eyes. There you were to my surprise.
You walked right over and took my hand; out the door is where it all began.
Took a back alley; find a hiding place to maybe get it on and run that race.
PCh3
The next thing I knew my wallet was gone...
What the hell is going on?
Lucky me, I’m so glad that you just…
