Keep You Safe
Asiah Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I promise that I'll keep you safe if you let me...
I'll carry the weight if you let me...
I promise that I'll keep you safe if you let me...
I'll carry the weight if you let me...

I try to be the best I can for you
Sometimes I can not go along with your rules
I think you will never understand me
Love is blind and I'm all that you can see
It's been a while since I felt carefree
Your words they do not help me

I promise that I'll keep you safe if you let me...
I'll carry the weight if you let me...
I promise that I'll keep you safe if you let me...
I'll carry the weight if you let me...

I break your wall and the tears fall down
I've seen it all
I felt so down
You can not blame me
Please look at your actions
I am not a distraction
Show love and affection
There is too much pressure
There is too much pain
If this keeps going on yeah I'll go insane

I promise that I'll keep you safe if you let me...
I'll carry the weight if you let me...
I promise that I'll keep you safe if you let me...
I'll carry the weight if you let me...

I'll keep you safe...
I'll keep you safe...
If you let me...
If you let me...




If you let me...
If you let me.
