Let Me Be

by ·

1/3/2024
Let me be the reason you can’t sleep at night
Lying awake wondering what I’m doing
And whether I’m thinking about you too

Let me be the reason the butterflies flutter
In a way they haven’t for so long now
The kind of excitement that makes your heart skip

Let me be your first and last waking thought
Book-ending a day filled with dreams of us
Holding hands, touching skin, feeling the comfort of each other’s warmth

Let me be what you need at this very moment
And every moment from now on
Let me be your everything, as you are to me

Oh, let me be the reason
Oh, let me be yours
