Laat me

I might have been born too late
Or in a place with different light
I always feel a bit lost
Even though the mirror shows my face

I know the bars, the cathedrals
From Amsterdam to Maastricht
Still, I’ll get lost every day
That keeps things balanced, you see

Let me
Let me
Let me go my own way
Let me
Let me
I’ve always done it this way

I won’t forget my friends
'Cause those I love stay in my heart
And where they live, I should know
But I lost their last letter

I’ll surely meet them again
Maybe today, maybe in a year
I’ll kiss them and greet them
It’ll all come together, don’t you fear

Let me
Let me
Let me go my own way
Let me
Let me
I’ve always done it this way

I’m lucky I’m not anchored
Sometimes I live here, sometimes there
I haven’t ruined my life
I own nothing and I don’t care

I love water and earth
I love cheap things and the expensive
Not a dime have I saved
I just live from hour to hour

Let me
Let me
Let me go my own way
Let me
Let me
I’ve always done it this way

I’ll die someday, that’s for sure
I can’t escape that fate
I’ll let my songs drift away
And you can figure the rest out

For now, I’ll keep kissing you
Your black sheep, your loyal fan
I’ll stay for a long time, even longer
And let me be who I am

Let me
Let me
Let me go my own way
Let me
Let me
I’ve always done it this way

Let me
Let me
Let me go my own way
Let me
Let me
I’ve always done it this way

Let me
Let me
Let me
Let me
Let me
Let me
I’ve always done it this way

Let me
Let me
Let me
Let me
Let me
Let me
I’ve always done it this way

Let me
