Let You Down Lyrics

I let you down
Let me pick you up
I let you down
Let me climb up you to the top
So I can see the view from up there
Tangled in your hair

I let you down
I have no lid upon my head
But if I did
You could look inside and see
What's on my mind
I let you down
oh, forgive me

You give me love
Let me walk with you, maybe I could say
Maybe talk with you, open up
And let me through
Don't walk away
Don't walk away

I have no lid upon my head
But if I did
You could look inside and see what's on my mind
You could look inside and see what's on my mind

I let you down
How could I be such a fool like me?
I let you down
Tail between my legs
I'm a puppy for your love
I'm a puppy for your love

I have no lid upon my head
but if I did
you could look inside and see
what's on my mind
oh, it's you

I let you down
I'm a puppy for your love
I'm a puppy for your love

Forgive me
Forgive me
Forgive me

I let you down

"I have no lid upon my head but if I did You could look inside and see what's on my mind"

that's the best part.

This song was written by Stefan Lessard. I think it's one of their best songs and dave didn't even write it. Love the lyrics and the pain behind them. It's an apology song an I love it.

I want to be all of your life. I want to 'let you down', and 'pick you up'... You are all thats on my mind, I wish you could see it for yourself. 'i have no lid, but if i did...'

He obviously hurt someone so badly that he has to plea for forgiveness. He's also humbling himself while doing so..'Tail between my legs'. I guess he's admitting that we all do stupid things in life but..'If you could look inside and see what's on my mind,' you'll be able to read my heart.
