Foreign city crowded, there's nowhere to go
See you in the bar, wandering round, I try to touch you
I try to tell you what, you can see the base in me
You can see what I've got
Let me be, let me be, let me be with you (2x).
I'm half-crippled, savage guilt inside
Taking my best friend, my best friend for a ride
The pulse rate beating, filthy thoughts
I don't want anyone to say, I don't want a bad report, no
Let me be, let me be, let me be with you (2x).
We were like kings and princes floating up and down around the room
I was a petal bursting flower, I was fully-fledged in bloom, in that room,
In that room
So it's over, I'm whisked back home
Another fat failure, another alone
So riddled with guilt inside, what am I going to say?
When the voice whispers in your ear, "Did you have a lovely day?"
Let me be, let me be, let me be with you (2x).
We were like children then, we did what we could, we said what we could, we
Flew
I'm like a finished man now
What on earth is my mind going to do?
With memories of you
Those memories of you
