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 breakdown 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 shape
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 thing come true
(Make this 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
I can't let
I can't let her get away
I can't let
I Can't let her get away(no)
I can't let
I can't let her get away
I can't let
I can't let her get away
I tried to mastermind it
By saying let it be
But evertime 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 sets you free
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(no)
I can't let
I can't let her get away
Hoo
Are you ready
Hoo
You know how to stop
Tell me that she's never gonna drop
I got a feeling she left me aside
I get the feelin that she never gonna move
I'm right she got to fight girl
I'm feeling she never gonna take it
I get the feeling that she never gonna fight
I got the feelin that she left me aside
(Her)
(Her)
Oh boy I got a felling that she never gonna go(I can't let it go)
That girl I have to get her aside
That girl I never gonna get her side(I can't let it go)
I can't let
I can't let her get away(no no)
I can't let
I can't let her get away
(She gonna, she gonna, she gonna)
I can't let
I can't let her get away(I won't let it)
I can't let(no no)
I can't let her get away(no no no no)
I can't let
(Get away)
I can't let
(She gonna, she gonna, she gonna)
(Hoo)I can't let(hoo)
Hoo
Hoo
I can't let(oh no)
She never gonna live a better life girl
I can't let(she's gone)
I can't let her get away(Oh no)
I can't let(she's gone)
I can't let her get away(Oh mine)
I can't let(Oh no)
I can't let her get away(she won't)
I can't let(she won't, she won't, she won't)
I can't let her get away(she won't, she won't)
I can't let(I'm never gonna meet me)
(I'll never get on the front of her)
I can't let(I'm never gonna go she never gonna stop)
I can't let(She gonna stop me)
I can't let her get away()
I can't let()
I can't let her get away()
(Get away)
