I Canu2019t Let Go - Jennifer Hudson
They say nothing lasts forever Well, I wish that that were true Cause this aching in my heart won't go away They say everything must change They say that time will see it through Well, I've listened and I've waited for that day But I wake up with this anger And the pain won't let me be And the smile I share Is only there for show If I hang on to this heartache Then my soul will not be free So I keep trying But I just cannot let go I can't let go I need it to remind me I can't let go Oh, I just repeat the past And though your arms are saying yes I feel my heart keeps saying no I want to love you But I can't let go I have lived through bad beginnings And I've seen unhappy ends So I close the book Before the story starts I'm just a witness to my lifetime And I'm a stranger to my friends I'm a trafficker Of broken, damaged hearts Now you ask me to start over But it's easier said than done 'Cause the memories are strong when they arise And when heartache comes a'calling I won't even try to run 'Cause it's all that makes me know that I'm alive I can't let go I need it to remind me I can't let go Oh, I just repeat the past And though your arms are saying yes I feel my heart keeps saying no I want to love you (I want to love you) I want to love you (I want to love you) Oh, I want to love you But I can't let go (I can't let go) No, I can't let go (I can't let go) Would you help me? Help me to let go.
