I was out driving in a mystery car
You were there sinking in your part-time bar
Sooner or later we are gonna have to talk it through
Sooner or later, it's gonna come down to just me and you
For now, let me be

Let me be
Let me be
Let me be

If I was a liar I would tell you the truth
If I was a writer, you know, I'd write it down for you
If I was a singer I would sing you a song
A song called "Sooner, Or Later, You Know We All Get It Wrong"
For now, let me be

Let me be
Let me be
Let me be

Like an endless bend that wouldn't straighten out
The arc kept holding though we wanted out
And it hurt so bad
Wheels kept crushing without speed or sound
The curve kept holding
It spiraled in and down
And it hurt so bad

It hurt so bad
It hurt so bad
It hurt so bad
It hurt so bad

Let me be
Let me be
Let me be
Let me be
