Let Em Come
Mike Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

On a perfect spring night
Breathing air like Champagne
I have played my cards right
Almost drove me insane

We went into summer
Days were long and lazy
In my mind, these words rang
Almost drove me crazy

Come let me love you over and over, now that the flesh is willing
Come let me love you over and over, making it is so thrilling
Never deny you, never defy you
The shouting, the scream, this is more than a dream, it's a totally new experience

Do you still remember?
How to turn the world to gold
Red and brown and yellow
Time was making me bold

And when winter found us
In the chill of daybreak
You were mine forever
I have cured my heartache

Come let me love you all over, now all of the flesh is willing
Come let me love you over and over, making it is so thrilling
Never deny it, never defy it
The shouting, the scream, this is more than a dream, things not what they seem
Come let me love you all over, now all of the flesh is willing
Come let me love you over and over, making it is so thrilling




Never deny you, never defy you
The shouting, the scream, this is more than a dream, it's a totally new experience
