 From The Heart

If Only You'll Let Me


I'll stand up for you
If only you'll let me.
I'll stand by your side
If only you don't mind.

I won't turn and walk away
From a conversation that you may say.
I'll listen to every single word
Cuz baby, it's what I do, it's who I am.

I can't give you the moon,
I can't give you the stars,
I can't give you the ocean,
But I can give you my love, my all.

I'll never leave you again,
I'll never break your heart anymore.
I'll do my best not to make you cry,
I'll do my best to dry your tears if I do.

Baby, I love you more than anything,
I love you more than I love myself.
Cuz I love you so much darlin', I'll
Even get down on my knees and pray for you.

I'll stand in front of you,
If only you'll let me.
I'll stand behind you through it all,
If only you don't mind.

Don't push me away from you,
Instead, pull me closer to your arms.
I'll kiss you every time I see you,
Oh, baby, thank you..for being in my life.

I don't know where I would be
Without you in my life today.
You are every reason why come
I haven't give up on myself today.

If only you'll let me,
See you through and through.
If only you don't mind,
I'll love you for the rest of my life.
