LET ME BE THE ONE by Cliff Richard - live performance 2003 +lyrics

When you're out in the ocean
And you're swimming against the tide
When you're climbing a mountain
And the mountain seems too high
Never give up believing
Love is on your side
When the darkness surrounds you
And you cannot see your way
When the loneliness finds you
And there is no hiding place
Never give up believing
Love will save the day
Open up the gates
You closed around your heart
Someone is waiting to come in
Let me be the one
That you hold on to
I will bring the sun to shine on you
Your lonely days are gone
The best is yet to come
If you let me be the one
When the weight on your shoulders
Is too much to bear
There's no burden too heavy
That cannot be shared
You can run into my heart
Lay your troubles there
They say surrender brings freedom for the soul
Well, don't you think it's time
That you let me know
And let me be the one
That you hold on to
'Cause I will bring the sun to shine on you
Your lonely days are gone
The best is yet to come
If you let me be the one
Open up the gates
You closed around your heart
Someone is waiting to come in
Let me be the one
That you hold on to
I will bring the sun to shine on you
Your lonely days are gone
The best is yet to come
If you let me be the one
Won't you let me be the one
