Can’t Let You Go Lyrics

Rainbow

Day after day I keep waking up
To find that youre slipping away
Night after night
I cant fight the emptiness inside
Nothing I can say
Now I know youre turning me away
Youre wearing a disguise
You dont have to hide cause
The truth is in your eyes tonight
I dont want to live a lie
But I dont want to say goodbye
And I cant let you go even though its over
I just cant let you go
Though your love is growing colder
One look in my eyes and youd realize
That you got my heart in your hands
Wont you let me know something more
Where did we go wrong?
I dont want to fight
All I want to do is try to understand
Im reaching out for you babe
What can I do
Ive been holding on so long
I dont want to live a lie
But I dont want to say goodbye
I cant let you go
Even though its over
I just cant let you go
I feel your love is growing colder
I dont want to live a lie
But I dont want to say goodbye
I want you by my side
And I cant let you go
Even though its over
I just cant let you go
I feel your love is growing colder
I cant let you go even though its over
