let me quit the chase,
 let me touch your face.
 let me take your hand
 and love all that you are.

 let me understand
 all your secret plans,
 let me take your hand
 and love all that you are.

 this is not my life,
 this is not my pain,
 but it kills me all the same.

 let me take your hand
 and love all that you are.

 let me hear your song,
 let me do no wrong.
 let me take your hand
 and love all that you are.

 let [bad word] you
 when the world seems blue.
 let me take your hand
 and love all that you are

 this is not my life,
 this is not my pain,
 but it kills me all the same.

 let me take your hand
 and love all that you are.
