Intro:
Spoken: Here she comes. Don't say anything...
Verse 1:
At first you smile, then turn away
I've been thinking of what I should say
All last night I stayed up dreaming
I'm still dreaming
Verse 2:
I look at you, I'm just a guy
I know my place, but still I'll try
You must be tired of people asking
But I'm still asking, please
Chorus:
-
Oh please let me down easy
-
Please just let me down easy
Don't you hear my heart is calling?
You don't know how hard I've fallen for you
Verse 3:
Another day, you're passing by
Today's the day I'm gonna try
You don't know how much I'm hoping
How I'm hoping, please
Chorus:
-
Oh please let me down easy
-
Please just let me down easy
Can't you hear my heart is calling?
You don't know how far I've fallen for you
