I Just Can’t Let Go
[Intro]
Oooooooh
[Verse 1]
Oh, what’s the matter, baby?
Is the truth too hard to hear?
Well, I think you know I’m not the one who lied
Now, it’s all behind us
And we both play out our lives
But the years don’t change the way I feel inside
[Pre-Chorus]
So, I’ll play the game now
Though it feels the same now
Are you missin’ me?
Well now, baby, just be aware
Of how much I still care
Oh, I need your love
[Chorus]
I gave to you my heart and soul
Now I just need to let you know
You’re part of me that I just can’t let go, go
[Verse 2]
Well, tell me something, baby
Is there still something inside
To remind you of the way it used to be?
And how the years, they go by
Still there’s something I must say
No one ever could have loved you more than me
[Pre-Chorus]
So I’m passin’ time now
Wishin’ you were mine now
Are you missin’ me?
Well, you know it’s not too late
Oh, how long must I wait?
Oh, to hear you say
[Chorus]
I gave to you my heart and soul
Now I just need to let you know
You’re part of me that I just can’t let go, go
[Bridge]
(And I) And I need your love
And I need your love
Everywhere I go there’s a memory
(And I) If you can’t decide on me (woooh)
Well, you gotta make up your mind
‘Cause some day you’re gonna find
You just might need me
[Instrumental Break]
[Pre-Chorus]
Well now, baby, just be aware
Of how much I still care
Oh, I need your love
[Chorus]
I gave to you my (gave) heart and soul (heart and soul)
Now I just need to let you know
You’re part of me that I just can’t let
Part of me that I just can’t let go, go
[Outro]
Can’t let go
I can’t, baby (go)
Oh, no (go)
I just can’t let go, just can’t let go (go)
I just can’t let
