Lyrics:

[English]

No more talk of darkness

Forget these wide-eyed fears

I'm here, nothing can harm you

My words will warm and calm you

Let me be your freedom

Let daylight dry your tears

I'm here with you, beside you

To guard you and to guide you

Say you love me every waking moment

Turn my head with talk of summertime

Say you need me with you now and always

Promise me that all you say is true

That's all I ask of you

Let me be your shelter

Let me be your light

You're safe, no one will find you

Your fears are far behind you

All I want is freedom

A world with no more night

And you, always beside me

To hold me and to hide me

Then say you'll share with me

One love, one lifetime

Let me lead you from your solitude

Say you need me with you here beside you

Anywhere you go, let me go too

Christine, that's all I ask of you

Say you'll share with me

One love, one lifetime

Say the word and I will follow you

Share each day with me each night, each morning

Say you love me, you know I do

Love me, that's all I ask of you

...

Anywhere you go, let me go too

Love me, that's all I ask of you

Grammar:

Let me be your freedom

➔ Imperative (Let + Object Pronoun + Base Form)

➔ Uses the imperative form with 'let' to express a strong desire or plea for something to be allowed or permitted. 'Let me be' suggests a wish to fulfill the role of providing freedom.
Say you love me every waking moment

➔ Subjunctive Mood (Implied conditional/desire) + Adverb of Frequency

➔ While not strictly using the subjunctive in its purest form (e.g., with 'were'), the phrase expresses a strong desire. 'Every waking moment' emphasizes the constant nature of the request.
Turn my head with talk of summertime

➔ Imperative + Prepositional Phrase (with)

➔ 'Turn my head' is an imperative, a command. 'With talk of summertime' explains how to turn their head. This uses a prepositional phrase to describe the means by which the action is performed.
Promise me that all you say is true

➔ Imperative + Noun Clause (that-clause as object)

➔ 'Promise me' is the imperative verb phrase. The 'that' clause 'that all you say is true' acts as the direct object of the verb 'promise'.
Let me be your shelter

➔ Imperative with 'Let' (Request/Suggestion)

➔ Expresses a strong desire to act as a protector or refuge. The use of 'let' softens the command, making it a plea.
Anywhere you go, let me go too

➔ Adverbial Clause of Place + Imperative (request)

➔ 'Anywhere you go' describes the place, and 'let me go too' is a request. It combines the two to create the condition for the request.
