Lyrics
AS YOU OUGHT TO BE
Will you let me love you
As you deserve to be?
I'm the one to do it
I can do it,
I want to do it,
So let me do it,
Let me love you
As you ought to be.
Own up to your loving
Unfold your arms
Unlock the gate
Crack open the door
Let the fresh air move in
And let me love you
As you ought to be.
Keep it simple, keep it light,
Don't interfere
Leave your hand in mine
Lead me in your stratosphere
Where by love will be bitten my kitten
Let your love with mine intertwine.
Let us coo, let us rest
Love is the nest
Stay close enough to kiss
Close enough to bliss
Love is where we belong
It will never be wrong.
So let me,
Yes let me,
Please let me love you
As you ought to be.
Will I let you love me
As I deserve to be?
You're the one to do it
You can do it,
I know you want to do it,
Why not let you do it?
Let you love me
As I ought to be.
