Robin Trower - Let Me Be The One Lyrics

Let me be the first
Let me be the last
Let me be the one, your future and your past
To hold you like i did
and love you like before
You stand there all alone,
crying out for more
let me be the first
let me be the last
let me be the one to love you

i told you once before
its a sin to tell a lie
take someone who loves you
and then teach them how to cry
To set a soul aflame
its happy for awhile
walk right out the door
its so cold without your smile
let me be the first
let me be the last
let me be the one to love you

sometimes i dream of you
everythings alright
but all the dreams of the whole wide world
won't fill one empty night
when you kill yourself just thinking
smoking cigarettes
because it hurts when you remember
and there's no way to forget
I could have been the first
i should have been the last
but i guess i am just someone who loves you
