Richard Marx - Wouldn't Let Me Love You

Lyrics:

I'm standing here paralyzed, 

so helpless right before your eyes 

and all that you can seem to do 

is look away

I know this weight that's on my shoulders

Is telling me it's really over

And now goodbye's the only thing that's

Left to say

You were always worth the risk

But how'd it come to this

Cause I opened up my heart to bleed

I let you have the best of me

But you wouldn't let me love you.

You couldn't let me love you.

I tried to give you what you need

But it took so long to finally see

That you wouldn't let me love you.

Couldn't let me love you.

Somehow you said all the right things

To cover up the pain you're hiding

And never let me in close enough to touch

You live with all these walls around you

Impossible for me to break through

And baby even I can only fight so much

And it's cutting me so deep

The promises I tried to keep

Cause I opened up my heart to bleed

I let you have the best of me

But you wouldn't let me love you.

You couldn't let me love you.

I tried to give you what you need

But it took so long to finally see

That you wouldn't let me love you.

Couldn't let me love you.

(Guitar solo)

And you should've been the one

The more I love the more you run

I opened up my heart to bleed

I let you have the best of me

But you wouldn't let me love you.

You couldn't let me love you.

I tried to give you what you need

But it took so long to finally see

That you wouldn't let me love you.

:Couldn't let me love you: (repeat)

I'm standing here paralyzed,

so helpless right before your eyes

and all that you can do

is look away

Artist: Richard Marx

Song: Wouldn't Let Me Love You

Album: Inside My Head (Click here to buy the album on Amazon)

This song is quite beautiful. It's the first single from Marx's new album "Inside My Head", which is going to be released June 1.

I like his voice and the overall sound. The guitar solo is also quite good.

I hope you like it :)
