He loves me
Blossom Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Let me love you
Let me say that I do
If you lend me your ear
I'll make it clear that I do

Let me whisper it
Let me sigh it
Let me sing it, my dear
Or I will cry it

Let me love you
Let me show that I do
Let me do a million impossible things
So you'll know that I do

I'll buy you the dawn
If you let me love you today
And tomorrow I'll buy you
The first of May

Let me whisper it
Let me sigh it
Let me sing it, my dear
Or I will cry it

Let me love you
Let me show that I do
Let me do a million impossible things
So you'll know that I do

I'll buy you the dawn
If you let me love you today
And tomorrow I'll send you
Tomorrow I'll send you
Yes, tomorrow I'll send you
Merrily on your way





Let me love you
