Elly Jackson - 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
