Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

If someone makes you cry and you're feeling blue
Let me love you
You can always count on me
I'll be there, wait and see
To love you

Let me love you
Let me kiss you

Let me show you whadda I can do
For someone like you

If someone breaks your heart and it starts to fall apart
Let me love you
You can always come to me to soothe your misery
And to love you

Let me love you
Let me kiss you
Let me show you whadda I can do
For someone like you

If someone leaves you at the door, teardrops on the floor
Let me love you
You can always call on me
I'll be there willingly
To love you

Let me love you
Let me kiss you

Let me show you whadda I can do
For someone like you
