Short But Sweet

I let you stand beside me
I even let you guide me
I let you love me as long as I could
I let you in so sweetly,
You borrowed so discreetly
It's like you were always there
But always gone
I let you stand beside me
I even let you guide me
I let you love me like a thief in the night
I let you hold me tightly
Even lightly
I let you go
When I needed you most
I didn't want to you hurt you
But I didn't want to need you
I held on as long as I could
You were the one I turned to
The one I learned from
The one I held
Longer then the rest…
I let you stand beside me
I even let you guide me
I let you love me like a thief in the night
I let you hold me tightly
Even lightly
I let you love me
As long as I could
