I know it's past tense

It's been a minute since

We were a couple

And, walking and holding hands

Kisses and I love yous

Doing what lovers do

Baby

But baby that was then

'cause now we don't

Talk no more

You gotta a new man

And, it shouldn't bother me

But girl its driving me, crazy

And everybody says

Boy why don't you just leave it alone

But I don't think I can

[Chorus (x2)]

I sit up all night

Thinkin' about you

And know it ain't right, baby

But I don't

I don't think, don't think that I

That I can let go (Don't think I can let you know)

I'm holdin' on to hope

I know its a foolish thought

Think that someday she might come back

Wish on it all the time

Knowin' it never may happen

But see I'm not a fool

'cause no we don't

Talk no more

You gotta new man

But, I'm gonna keep the faith

I've got the patience

That some lack...

But everybody says

Boy why don't you just leave it alone

But I don't think I can

[Chorus]

I sit up all night

Thinkin' about you

And know it ain't right, baby

But I don't

I don't think, don't think that I

That I can let go (Don't think I can let you know)

[Interlude]

I don't think I can let you go

I can't let you go

No....

I don't think that I can let you go

Let go...

And everybody says...

And I don't think I can...

[Chorus (With Ad-Libs)]

I sit up all night

Thinkin' about you

And know it ain't right, baby

But I don't

I don't think, don't think that I

That I can let go (Don't think I can let you know)
