Let It Go

(album: Love, War And The Ghost Of Whitey Ford - 2008)

Changed your look, cut your hair
And I pretended like I don't care
You're so lovely, girl, stop crying

Bite my lip, I close my eyes
Try to tell myself you're no prize
Can't forget you, girl, but I'm trying

No one else will ever be
The things that you are to me, girl
Kind of special, hey, I ain't lying

Bite your neck, I pull your hair
You're so innocent and unaware
I'm so lonely, I'm so scared, girl
I'm dying here

Every single time I went and fell in love
Push came down to shove, I really tried to work it out
And every single time I couldn't let it go
Baby girl, don't you know your heart was too full of doubt?

Grab your shoes, walk out the door
Like you've done a thousand times before
But you got nowhere you can go to

Try to run, girl, but you can't hide
All the voices deep down inside
Repeat all the things that I told you

You're steadily on my mind
Girl, spooning you from behind
That's my favorite way that I hold you

For every time I let you down
For every tear that touched the ground
For every sincere apology that I owe you, girl

Every single time I went and fell in love
Push came down to shove, I really tried to work it out
And every single time I couldn't let it go
Baby girl, don't you know your heart was too full of doubt?

I've been loving you a little too long
And still I keep holding on
It's been a year since you been gone, girl
Check it out now

Every single time I went and fell in love
Push came down to shove, I really tried to work it out
And every single time I couldn't let it go
Baby girl, don't you know your heart was too full of doubt?

Every single time I went and fell in love
Push came down to shove, really tried to work it out
And every single time I couldn't let it go
Baby girl, don't you know your heart was too full of doubt?
