You're a lovely lonely lady

I can see it in your eyes

You've been told too many stories

You've believed too many lies

Now each love is one more heartache

That just takes you by surprise

Let me be the love who'll be your last

My la...dy

Let me be the one to hold you

Let me be the one to care

Let me be the one who told you

He would always need you there

Let me be the one to love you

Let me be the one to share

The sunrise with your first kiss

In the morn...ing

//// //// //// //// ////

Young love may be sweet love

But young love may be blind

Young love may be brighter

Than the other loves you find

But young love's just a memory

Of a face you've left behind

Let me be the love who'll be your last

My la...dy

Yes, let me be the one to hold you

Let me be the one to care

Let me be the one who told you

He would always need you there

Let me be the one to love you

Let me be the one to share

The sunrise with your first kiss

In the morn...ing

//// ////

Well I built a fortress round me

Now it's just an empty shell

You took it with a glance my love

And you took my heart as well

So let's take a chance just one more time

For time alone will tell

If we've found a love to grow and last

My la...dy

Let me be the one to hold you

Let me be the one to care

Let me be the one who told you

He would always need you there

Let me be the one to love you

Let me be the one to share

The sunrise with your first kiss

In the morn...ing

(Repeat last chorus)

The sunrise ... with your first ... kiss

In the morn...ing
