Please Let Me Be
Please let me be
Happy to just watch you smile
Oh, let me be
Resting here with you awhile
There is no need to
Feel you have to
Say a word to me
Just be yourself
Free within, without a sound
Your smile's enough
Don't speak out to tie us down
Why use phrases
That yesterday said
We were not so free
This is the peace we want to last
A simple sharing
Of two not caring
To impress this world
So let me be
Happy to just watch you smile
Oh, let me be
Resting here with you awhile
There is no need to
Feel you have to
Say a word to me
This is the peace we want to last and last and last...
