Let Me Be
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Well, you told me that you wanted me to be the one
But all you every wanted was to have some fun
You cheated and you lied
I hope you're satisfied
Why won't you let me be
Well I try to walk away but everytime I do
You tell me that you're sorry and that you'll be true
I take you back again and then you lie to me again
Why won't you let me be
Why don't you set me free
Oh, baby, baby, why
Why won't you let me be
Baby, baby why
Let me know all I want to know
Why won't you let me go
I guess that I will always be in love with you
And yet I know that you're the kind that can't be true
So let me go away
Don't try and make me stay
Please won't you let me be
