Let Me Be

[Verse 1]
I'll give you a ring when I'm ready
I told you that before
I'll give you a ring when I'm ready
I told you that before
Give it a break now, baby
Don't you pressure me no more

[Verse 2]
We have had this conversation
One too many times
We have had this conversation
One too many times
I'm sorry your conclusion
Just don't jive with mine

[Chorus]
Let me be, baby
I won't be forced
Real love, baby
Takes its own course
Let me be, baby
Quit beatin' a dead horsе
Let me be, baby
I won't takе no more

[Verse 3]
Deadlines are one thing
You know I don't like at all
Deadlines are one thing
You know I don't like at all
I feel like a prisoner
With his back up against the wall

[Chorus]
Let me be, baby
I won't be forced
Real love, baby
Takes its own course
Let me be, baby
Quit beatin' a dead horse
Let me be, baby
I won't take no more
