Let Me Be the One Lyrics

(Lawrence El, Stokley)

Intro: 

Yeah 
Talkin about a real friend 
Set your mind at ease baby 
Ain't nothin wrong with that 

Verse:

I guess we both have seen some brighter days 
Somehow the love we've shared has slipped away 
Still I wanna be the one who keeps ya safe and harm 
Let me be the one 

Although things with me and you didn't quite work out 
For you there's a special place deep in my heart 
Though I wanna extend my unconditional love 
Let me be the one 

Chorus 

If you need a friend 
Let me be the one 
Someone that you call 
Wanna be the one through it all 
You don't have to fall 
Just let me be the one 
Let me be the one 

Verse: 

Promises made they've all worn paper thin 
Still honey I'm not afraid to call you friend 
Take a look and I know you'll see 
The possibilities 
Let me be the one 

To see you smile 
There's nothing I won't do 
Cause honey I only want what's best for you 
You are a shining star 
Just stay the way you are 
Let me be the one 

Chorus 

Jazz solo 

Chorus 

Adlib:

Let me be 
Let me be 
Let me be 
Oh-oh let me be 

Bridge (2x): 

Wanna be the one you need 
Let me set you mind at ease 
Nothin wrong with being a friend 
Wanna be til the end 

Adlib til the end of song
