Trading Yesterday - May I lyrics

rate me

And there you stand opened heart--opened doors

full of life with the world that's wanting more.

But I can see when the lights start to fade,

the day is done and your smile has gone away.

Let me raise you up.

Let me be your love.

May I hold you

as you fall to sleep,

when the world is closing in

and you can't breathe.

May I love you.

May I be your shield.

When no one can be found

may I lay you down.

All I want is to keep you safe from the cold...

to give you all that your heart needs the most.

Let me raise you up

Let me be your love

[chorus]

May I hold you (hold you)

as you fall to sleep.

When the world is closing in

and you can't breathe,

may I love you. (love you)

May I be your shield.

When no one can be found,

may I lay you down.

[bridge]

All that's made me (made me)

Is all worth trading (worth trading)

just to have one moment with you.

So I will let go (will let go)

all that I know (that I know)

knowing that you're here with me.

For your love is changing me.

[chorus]

May I hold you

as you fall to sleep.

When the world is closing in

and you can't breathe,

may I love you.

May I be your shield.

when no one can be found

may I lay you down
