The White Tie Affair - The Letdown

So, I was thinking about
What I'd write to you.
It's been three
Days since I heard your voice,
And I ain't been right without you.

A one night stand and a photograph
Made its way to you.
I took a chance,
Paid the consequence
This is why I'm writing to you.

What is the big surprise?
Is it too late to try?
Go ahead and cry.
It was just one little lie.

I hope that you don't mind.
I'll make it up this time.
Is it too late to try?
It was just one lie.

Baby, I think I owe you one.
Every time I come around you're ready for the letdown.
Here I sit alone; it was my fault.
I know if I was you, I wouldn't take me back.
Just let me down slowly, please...

Its not hard for me to say the things that you do.
You bring out the best in me,
When its not the best for you.
It's been a long time since I didn't know
What to do, where to go.
Could we forget yesterday, start over again?

What is the big surprise?
Is it too late to try?
Go ahead and cry.
It was just one lie.

Baby, I think I owe you one.
Every time I come around you're ready for the letdown.
Here I sit alone; it was my fault.
I know if I was you, I wouldn't take me back.
Just let me down.

Baby, I think I owe you one.
Every time I come around you're ready for the letdown.
Here I sit alone; it was my fault.
I know if I was you, I wouldn't take me back.
Just let me down slowly, please...

You need to believe it when I say that I am so, so, so sorry for the things I put you through.
Never meant to take the trust from you. [X3]

Baby, baby, I know I owe you one.

Baby, baby, I let you down.
I let you down.
I let you down.
I let you down.
So please, let me down slowly, please.
