Verse

| 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & | 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & |

 Is love behind me?

Though I need you to satisfy me

Destiny will prove to divide me

For you're a part of me

I feel the love within you

Your beauty lies deep within you

Touching me when you feel the need to

Become as one with me

Chorus

| 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & | 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & |

 So let me down easy

If ever you were to leave

My love, let me down easy

For all I know is you

Verse

| 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & | 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & |

 Take you for granted?

That could never, never be

An advantage

All this love, and free from demanding

You have always felt the need to be pleased

And you stay close beside me

Though our minds are free for deciding

The life to lead and desiring

To see what they can see

Chorus

| 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & | 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & |

 Oooh!

Let me down easy

If ever you were to leave

My love, let me down easy

Ooohhh...

Bridge

| 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & | 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & |

 Ah! Spending time, time with you

Counting the days of my life

Oh, hoping that, that with me

You will stay

Chorus

| 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & | 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & |

 So let me down easy

If ever you were to leave

My love, let me down easy

For all I know is you

Verse

| 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & | 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & |

 Being around you

Lovely things I feel are about you

Being strong until I'm without you

For you're the strength in me

And you give me inspiration

Realizing that it has taken

More love and more love makin'

To fulfill my every need

So for me

Chorus

| 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & | 1 & 2 & 3 & 4 & |

 | D#sus | D#sus :| x6, fade

Let me down easy

If ever you were to leave

My love, let me down easy

If ever you were to leave

My love, let me down

Oh, easy

If ever you were to leave

My lo-ove, let me down, let me down, let me down

Easy, baby

Oh-ho! Let me down, down, down, down, down, down easy

Hey, if ever, if ever, ever, ever you were to leave me
