Let Me Be
Hanson/Parker Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

(Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)

I don't fight the feeling
It's happening
Steady your hand
And settle in your seat

The fear that you might fail
Is like venom in your blood
Any moment you might freeze
But the voices in your head, scream

Don't let me down(hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
Your moment is now (hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)

Right on the verge of the rest of your life
All you can hear is the sound
Of everything that you've been through that's led you to now

They can't take you down (hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
Your moment is now, hey (hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)

Take it (hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)

Walk through the door
And take your place
No time for question
'Cause now you're in the game

You can't let the world consume you
Spit you out and tear you up
Ain't no devil on your shoulder
Just a voice and it won't stop saying

Don't let me down (hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
Your moment is now, yeah (hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)

It's not a question of whether you're ready
Only of what you'll allow
Everything in your life it has brought you to now

Your moment is now (hey, hey, hey)
They can't take you down (hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
You won't let me down, yeah (hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)

Feel it coursing through your veins
And you beat it like a drum
No one can stop you until you decide that you're done

Your moment is now (hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
And you won't let me down (hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
They can't push you around (hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
And you won't let me down (hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)




You know (hey, hey, hey, hey)
You won't let me down (hey)
