Janis Ian - I Want To Make You Love Me - Текст песни

Friendly stranger


look what you do to me


Smiling faces


and I melt inside


singing praises of your company


I want to lay me down


Stay all through the night


You are too good to be


wholly and totally mine


You are too good to be


slipping away like wine


and I'm waiting, praying


skating on the edge of the line


Let me down easy


Let me down easy


chorus:


I want to make you love me


and I want to make you smile


and I want to be your family


for just a little while


I get frightened by the thunder


and the lightning roars


like a bullet in the pourin rain


I get heightened


by your wondering arms


Lay me down-


do it all over again


you are too good to be


wholly and totally mine 


You are slipping away 


and I'm making you stay


and I'm waiting for the sun to shine


I go rolling down the incline


holding on a lifeline


stopping on the edge of a dime


Let me down easy


Let me down easy


repeat chorus
