Let Me Love You

King Crimson · Other Songs - King Crimson

If you would let me love you, baby

There is nothing in the world i wouldn't do for you

Yes if you would let me love you, baby

Ain't nothing in the world i wouldn't do for you

I would even try to walk on water, woman

If you would just say,

"baby i love you too"



If you let me love you, baby

I'll buy you a car made of gold

I'll even give you a fountain of youth, baby

So you will never grow old

Just let me love you, woman



Ain't nothing i wouldn't do in this world

I want you to call me your boy, woman

Baby, and i'm gonna call you my girl



Yeah, i'l lhire you a teacher, baby

To read you storybooks

I'll make you a talkin' mirror, woman

Just to tell you how good you look



Ain't nothing i wouldn't do in this world

I want you to call me your boy, woman

Baby, and i'm gonna call you my girl



Yes, i'm gonna fall on my knees

Would even call the lord

Just to seed the dimple, baby

In your cheeks when you smile



Let me love you

Ain't nothing in the world i wouldn't do for you

I say i would try to walk the water, baby

If you say that you love me too
