Will Swanda - Can't Let Go Lyrics

The hazel filter in my life
It burned as embers burn in coal
And as I lay my heart down to die
I strip a piece out of my soul

I am abandoned on a corner
With no desire and not complete
The stampede keeps on pounding
I'm drifting alone at sea

And the floors can't hold me like you could
And I can't move on, though I should

I was made to take a place beside you just so you could know I'm wrong
I made the same mistakes I've made before even though you weren't the one
And I shoulda known that we were never meant to be so
But oh I can't let go

You said we were two different people
That we could never be right
I didn't wanna have to move on
But I can't put up no fight

And the rope around my neck
Was either tightened or released
But I can't stand to have a future
Where you're with him instead of me

And she can't make me smile like you did
Still the only word I see for you is perfect

But I was made to take a place beside you just so you could know I'm wrong
I made the same mistakes I've made before even though you weren't the one
And I shoulda known that we were never meant to be so
But oh I can't let go

I can't let go
I can't let go
I can't let go

And I just want you to be happy
That's why I can't put up a fight
Because you know I'm still in love with you
Like how the moon loves the night
