Verse 1:
I thought she had to have it
Since the first time she came
Who knows the situation
Mysteries do remain
And now I wonder why
I break down when I cry
Is it something I said
Or is it just a lie? (Is it just a lie)

I try so hard to love you
Some things take time and shame
I think the whole world of you
Your thoughts of me remain
I’ll play the fool for you
I’ll change the rules for you
Just say it and I’ll do
Just make this dream come true (make a dream come true)

If I let her get away
Though I’m begging on my knees
I’ll be crying everyday
Knowing the girl that got away

Hook:
I can’t let, I can’t let her get away
I can’t let, I can’t let her get away
I can’t let, I can’t let her get away
I can’t let, I can’t let her get away

Verse 2:
I tried to mastermind it
By saying let you be
But everytime I did it
The hurt came back at me
I told you that I need you
A thousand times and why
I played the fool for you
And still you said goodbye (still you said goodbye)

If I let her get away
Then the world will have to see
A fool who lives alone
And the fool who set you free

Hook:
I can’t let, I can’t let her get away
I can’t let, I can’t let her get away
I can’t let, I can’t let her get away
I can’t let, I can’t let her get away

Bridge:
I got the feeling, trouble’s gotta stop
I got the feeling, she’s never gonna try
I got the feeling, she’s never gonna stop
I got the feeling but she’s never gonna know
My friends thought she’s gonna like it
I got the feeling but she’s never gonna take it
I got the feeling, her head’s all fucked up
I got the feeling, she’s out to play
Can’t let go
Can’t let go

Hook:
I can’t let, I can’t let her get away
I can’t let, I can’t let her get away
I can’t let, I can’t let her get away
I can’t let, I can’t let her get away
