I Can't Let Go

{guitar intro on overmuted G-chord}

Oh I try and I try but I can't say goodbye.



Feel so bad, baby.

Oh, it hurts me

when think of how you lovin' desert me.

I'm the broken-hearted toy you play with, baby.



You got me going (I can't let go)

I need you, baby.

I can't let go, and I want you, baby (and I want you, baby)

I got a habit you know: I can't let go.



Though I'm just one of your lovers,

and I know there are so many others,

you do something strange to me, baby, baby, baby, baby.



You got me going (I can't let go)

I need you, baby.

I can't let go, and I want you, baby (and I want you, baby)

I got a habit you know: I can't let go.



{intro replayed}

I try and I try but I can't say goodbye.

Know that it's wrong and I should be so strong

but the thought of you gone makes me want to hold on.



{guitar interlude}



You got me going (I can't let go)

I need you, baby.

I can't let go, and I want you, baby (and I want you, baby)

I got a habit you know: I can't let go.



You got me going (I can't let go)

I need you, baby.

I can't let go, and I want you, baby (and I want you, baby)

I got a habit you know: I can't let go.



I can't let go.

I can't let go.

{fade out}

I can't let go.

I can't let go ...
