[Verse 1] I grew up scared of my father His words were known to draw blood I know that nobody's perfect But I never questioned his love When he cursed the television And that god damn rainbow parade I wrapped my wounds in religion That night I learned how to pray
[Chorus] If you poisoned the apple why plant the tree? Why plant the tree? If there's one in the city you're willing to keep Let it be me Let it be me, Lord Let it be me Let it be me, Lord Let it be me
[Verse 2] I'm learning to love the progress Get more faith with every inch You're making peace with the thought of growing out of more than your skin What was once out of the question now gets met a quarter way It might not be a rainbow but at least it's more than grey
[Chorus] If you poisoned the apple, why plant the tree? Why plant the tree? If there's one in the city you're willing to keep Let it be me Let it be me, Lord Let it be me Let it be me, Lord Let it be me
[Bridge] Let it be me that you treat like a daughter Let it be me when you give me away Let it be you who's proud of me sort of 'Cause blood is blood at the end of the day
[Chorus] If you poisoned the apple why plant the tree? Why plant the tree? If there's one in the city you're willing to keep Let it be me Let it be me, Lord Let it be me Let it be me, Lord Let it be meTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
