Brenda Lee - I Let You Let Me Down Again Lyrics






Not the first time nor the last
Love's a memory fading fast
I was doing fine but then
I let you let me down again

Didn't want to be your clown
Build me up then let me down
I wanted love, you gave me pain
I let you let me down again
In the time it takes to say
All the things I had to say
You changed your mind and went away
Oh why couldn't you stay.

You didn't even say goodbye
You didn't even cry
You left me standing in the rain
And I let you let me down again

In the time it takes to say
All the things I had to say
You changed your mind and went away
Oh why couldn't you stay.

Not the first time nor the last
Love's a story from the past
And it always ends the same
I let you let me down again
Oh, oh, I let you let me down again

Brenda Lee I Let You Let Me Down Again Comments
  1. H.... D....

    My late father adored this woman, and rightly so.... I grew up listening to her and the likes of John Prine, the Animals, the Chi Lites, the list is endless 🤔. I played this song for my 11 yr old son today and told him of how his grandfather felt for her. I'm always exposing my kids to old music, alot of Sam Cooke and CCR. He sat and listened to the first minute or so quietly, and started singing along when he could. The song had barely ended and he played it again. Within a ten minutes he knew it by heart, pitch perfect, even Brenda's lil fall offs and raspy bits. If I've accomplished nothing else in this world, my children are open minded, compassionate souls who love good music. Now if I can just get them all through college and standing tall for themselves......😬 This whole adulting business is scary, exciting, and the hardest thing I've ever loved.😑

  2. K.... c....

  30. B.... B....

    Break it to me gently,
    Let me down the easy way
    Make me feel you still love me
    If it's just, if it's just for one more day
    Break it to me gently
    So my tears, my tears won't fall too fast
    If you must go, then go slowly,
    Let me love you 'till the last
    The love we shared, for oh so long
    Is such a big part of me
    If you must take your love away,
    Take it gradually
    Oh, oh, break it, break it to me gently,
    Give me time, oh give me a little time to ease the pain
    Love me just a little longer,
    'Cause I'll never never love again
    'Cause I'll never love again

  31. D.... N....

    Mad Men

    We loved each other at the wrong time :(

  37. D.... J....

    They should always show a picture taken right before they died. Merle S. died before the release of Mama Mia Here We Go Again and then they invited Cher to sing "Fernando" with Fernando played by Garcia. They were wonderful. Available on Amazon & YouTube

  38. a.... ....

    Brenda Lee, a eterna bonequinha dos Anos Dourados. Inesquecível.

  39. D.... E....

    Soul baby on this one from the great Brenda Lee mercy.

  40. I.... S....

    I was born in the wrong time....what a voice

  41. R.... L....

    Well!!! THANK YOU...indeed, I just finished episode---what? 7? 8?---of Mad Men's SECOND season (for the first time ever---and it's taken me 1 1/2 years!------goddam PUTRID show!) and Mr. Weiner's habit of choosing something that sends a shiver down your spine (sorry that the credit goes to him and not to the person who perhaps REALLY was responsible, but he's the creator...) once again WORKS....Mrs. Draper vomits, and Miss Lee starts singing------exquisitely!..... well, borderline camp---because let's face it----I may have heard her voice before, but this is the very first time I may identify it and......well, forgive me all you Miss Lee fans out there---but although swarthy and if you listen closely you hear a rasp that ALMOST reminds you of JOPLIN, Miss Lee was a "poor man's" version of....you bet...we do not even have to mention WHO...Now, who comes first?----uumm.....I think it is the tragic giant, who we lost at the peak of her life---- but that's alright-----Brenda Lee will do for certain occasions, no? In fact, I may rush and get a greatest hits CD-----she's cool---in fact, she brought me back to 23002 when my one and only GRANDEST break-up took place, and moments ago I was back in that seat.....But instead of these words, call me masochistic----but I'll take "...leaving on your mind" anytime over this message......Oh well, THANK YOU, Miss Lee...

  42. J.... R....

    BIG voice. SMALL Lady.😉😉

  43. M.... R....

  46. m.... ....

    Now we know where Adele's "All I Ask" got its inspiration...

  47. M.... C....

    Such attitude and stylistic delivery!

  48. V.... M....

    It's probably strange but for some reason I HATE it when someone says that so and so brought them here! Like that's the only way they can hear good music. lol I LOVE this song!!!

  56. M.... M....

  57. i.... ....

    I just started watching mad men. Damn I feel bad for Betty.

  58. C.... B....

    I was brought up on this I was born in 92 and I miss dad so much him being a single parent he id an amazing job! new years is the worst night of my life!

  59. B.... S....

    When Ms. Lee's voice gets 'hoarse' like on the words 'time' and 'cause' and 'gradually'. I love it so much, for all time, a fan since I was 9 in 1957.

  60. j.... ....

    I love this song more today than yesterday..Little Miss Dynamite out does herself on this one 😀

  61. S.... T....

  64. E.... O....

    Amazing voice!

  65. J.... M....

    Termina conmigo gentilmente
    recházame suavemente y
    hazme sentir que todavía me amas
    aunque solo sea, aunque solo sea,
    por un día más

    Termina conmigo gentilmente.
    para que mis lágrimas
    no caigan tan rápido.
    Si te tienes que ir, vete lentamente
    y déjame amarte hasta el final.

    El amor que compartimos
    por, oh, tanto tiempo,
    es algo muy grande para mí.
    Si te tienes que llevar tu amor
    hazlo gradualmente, oh, oh

    Termina, termina conmigo gentilmente
    Dame tiempo, oh, dame
    un poco de tiempo
    para aliviar el dolor.
    Ámame solo un poco más
    porque nunca, nunca amaré otra vez
    nunca amaré otra vez

  66. G.... 8....

    Stunning.

  67. T.... L....

    One of my all-time favorite early 60s songs from Brenda Lee. Smooth and soulful.

  68. J.... G....

    With great Nashville session player Floyd Cramer on piano.

  69. J.... B....

    What an amazing singer.. WOW.

  70. I.... A....

    Her voice. Omg. I just bought her cassette and this is the first song. I always make my voice dramatic when I'm listening to this song. "Gradjualeyyeyeiyyeye"1:42

  71. W.... O....

    WONDERFUL !

  72. M.... V....

    Quero vrer tango

  73. �.... �....

    Обыкновенный голос.
    И песни какие- то все однообразные.

  74. �.... �....

    What would this genre be! Swing?

    �.... �....

    ᕼᗩIᗪEᑎ ᗯIᑕKᔕ no, closer to country music I believe =)

  75. D.... D....

    What you call love was invented by guys like me to sell Nylon.

  76. G.... M....

  83. M.... L....

    It has been years since i heard such wonderful music as this!!!

    The original version, but, I prefer Juice Newton rendition of this song!

  85. a.... b....

    Awesome singer

  86. J.... B....

    Beautiful.

  87. S.... T....

    This song is as sad as the Skyliners'' Since I don't have you."""...both songs are comforting

  88. L.... ....

    "I will leave...my heart at the door..." Adele's All I Ask could mash with this

  89. C.... K....

    This song brings me to my knees!

  90. R.... C....

    Break it to me gently
    Let me down the easy way
    Make me feel that you still love me
    If it's just, if it's just for one more day

    Break it to me gently
    So my tears, my tears won't fall too fast
    If you must go, then go slowly
    Let me love you 'til the last

    The love we shared, for oh so long
    Is such a big part of me
    If you must take your love away
    Take it gradually

    Oh, oh, break it, break it to me gently
    Give me time, oh give me a little time to ease the pain
    Love me just a little longer
    'Cause I'll never never love again
    'Cause I'll never love again

  91. m.... ....

    Great song...greater era! I miss these gentler days........

  95. B.... I....

    this song should've been in the top 10 that year.

  96. A.... C....

    The girl from Tennessee, "Little Miss Dynamite" ... no one ever better!

  97. D.... F....

    This is when music was music.

  98. R.... Z....

    Is that Floyd Cramer I hear on piano?

  99. R.... Z....

    This is why when you hear a "newcomer" cover a classic, you ALWAYS go back and find the original. Covers are great, but generally speaking, the classic is called "classic" for a reason.
