Let Me Down Gently Lyrics - Trouble In Paradise - La Roux

Let me down gently 

That's what I think I need 

But when you let me down gently 

It still feels it hard, hard 

Turn me into someone good 

That's what I really need 

Tell me that I'm someone good 

So we're not so far apart, apart 

I hope it doesn't seem like I'm young, foolish and green 

Let me in for a minute 

You're not my life but I want you in it 

Set me up I'm slowly 

That's what you do to me 

Oh you set me up slowly 

Now I can't come down, down 

Let you down gently 

That's what I think you need 

But when I let you down you're empty 

And you try to hide your frowns, frowns 

I hope it doesn't seem like I'm young, foolish and green 

Let me in for a minute 

You're not my life but I want you in it 

And I hope it's sinking in 

Left behind your perfect skin 

There's a part of you that's free 

And I know that there's a place for me 

Let me down gently 

That's what I think I need 

But when you let me down gently 

It still feels hard, hard 

Turn me into someone good 

That's what I really need 

Tell me that I'm someone good 

So we're not so far apart, apart 

I hope it doesn't seem like I'm young and foolish and green 

Let me in for a minute 

You're not my life but I want you in it 

And I hope it's sinking in 

Left behind your perfect skin 

There's a part of you that's free 

And I know that there's a place for me
