Let Me Know
Rσisνn Murphy Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I turn the other way
I'll never turn you down
You turn me on
Don't speak out every meaning

I don't belong to you
You don't belong to me
So don't hold on too tightly

Let me know when you're lonely, babe
Let me know when you're lonely, babe

Happier now than I've been in the past
Gone are the days
Gone are the tears
That was a girl I used to be

The girl that you now see standing in front of you
Keeps going on
Because she believes
In setting you free

So let me know when you're lonely, babe
Let me know when you're lonely, baby
Let me know when you're lonely, babe
Let me know when you're lonely, baby

I turn the other way
I can never turn you down
You turn me on
Don't speak out every meaning

I don't belong to you
Like you don't belong to me
So don't hold on too tightly
There forever be

So let me know when you're lonely, babe
Let me know when you're lonely, baby
Let me know when you're lonely, babe
Let me know when you're lonely, baby

Let me know when you're lonely, babe
(It might be sweet)
Let me know when you're lonely, baby
(If we could be)

Let me know when you're lonely, babe
(Along the way)
Let me know when you're lonely, baby
(That could be okay)

You're always saying
In this cynical thing
Hold me
No ball and chain

I risk my reputation
Just to get a room
You always have the reservation
So come lie down beside me

So let me know when you're lonely, babe
Let me know when you're lonely, baby
(Beside me)

Let me know when you're lonely, babe
(Beside me)
Let me know when you're lonely, baby
(Beside me)

So let me know when you're lonely, babe
(It might be sweet)
Let me know when you're lonely, baby
(If we could be)

Let me know when you're lonely, babe
(Along the way)
Let me know when you're lonely, baby
(That could be okay)

That could be okay
It might be sweet
If we could be




Along the way
That could be okay
