I've been crying tears
For so many years
Wondering how long
It will take to catch up to me
Now I understand
Yes I've shown my hand
It's up to you to let me stay or to leave

Girl I've got to stay
That's the only way
If you leave me now
We can work it out
Try to see me straight
Let's not hesitate
Please, don't let it go
Hold me close and let it go

All those wasted times
That you spent I find
Teally meant more
Than I ever knew
And when you needed me I just couldn't be
The one to find the straight and narrow

Girl I've got to stay
That's the only way
If you leave me now
We can work it out
Try to see me straight
Let's not hesitate
Please, don't let it go
Hold me close and let it go

It doesn't take a desert to show you
You know you need the water to live, live, live

Now you got the choice
Please don't turn your voice
In the cross way
Or to sentence me
See we made it here
I just won't disappear
And let you carve this into eternity

You've just gotta
You've just gotta
You've just gotta
You've just gotta let it go
Gotta let you go
I just gotta let you go
