Let Me Be

from A Light To Follow by Emily Maguire

/

lyrics

It’s coming round again
Another wave to make me drown again
But I must be strong and carry on
But I can’t breathe

But it’s not real, no nothing I can see
And how I feel, no no-one knows but me
And I will plead, but it just won’t let me be

I want to hide away
Give me wings and I would fly away
But it’s in the stars, it’s in my heart
And I can’t leave

But it’s not real, no nothing I can see
And how I feel, no no-one knows but me
And I will plead, but it just won’t let me be

But it’s not real, no nothing I can see
And how I feel, no no-one knows but me
And I will plead, but it just won’t let me be
