**(Verse 1)**
Much as you blame yourself, you can't be blamed for the way that you feel,
When I was younger, man, I hadn't a care,
Had no example of a love that was even remotely real,
Fooling around, hitting the town, growing my hair.
**(Chorus)**
Girl let me love you, and I will love you,
Until you learn to love yourself,
You came along and stole my heart,
Ooh babe, you got what it takes, so I made you my wife.
**(Verse 2)**
I can see the pain behind your eyes,
You picked me up from off the floor,
It's been there for quite a while,
And gave me a smile, telling me my life ain't begun.
**(Chorus)**
Girl let me love you, and all your trouble,
Don't be afraid, girl let me help,
Ooh, I love you, since then I never looked back,
It's almost like living a dream.
**(Bridge)**
As my head was spinning 'round, I gazed into your eyes,
You said, "You're much too young, let's walk for awhile,"
Ooh baby, if you let me, I can help you out with all of that,
Thank you, babe, for being a friend, shining your light in my life.
**(Verse 3)**
I just wanna be the one to remind you what it is to smile,
Girl let me love you, and I will love you,
Until you learn to love yourself,
If ever a man had it all, it would have to be me.
**(Outro)**
Girl let me love you, a heart of numbness gets brought to life,
I'll take you there, let me love you, let me love you,
Ooh, I got you,
Is this love? Yes, it’s true,
'Cause ooh, I need you.
