Can’t Let It Go Lyrics by The Goo Goo Dolls

Let Love In

2006

[Verse 1]
You said you'd light a candle
And you'd say a prayer for me
Well, I feel the light has dimmed and gone
And half the world is begging
While the other half steals
Where did everything go wrong?
[Pre-Chorus]
Some days I can't believe
Others, I'm on my knees
Trying to be heard
[Chorus]
I was your anger
And you were my fear
And now that it's over
Of course it's so clear
But you were no angel
And I was no sin
But somehow I can't let it go
Can't let it go
[Verse 2]
Half the world is sleeping
While the other half dreams
You close your eyes
And then you're gone
And maybe my intentions have been misunderstood
I know you feel so beautifully wronged
[Pre-Chorus]
Some days I can't believe
Others, I'm on my knees
Hoping I belong
[Chorus]
I was your anger
And you were my fear
And now that it's over
Of course it's so clear
But you were no angel
And I was no sin
But somehow I can't let it go
Can't let it go
[Bridge]
And laughter is my soul's release
But we're not smiling anymore
And can't we try to win this peace?
'Cause we're never gonna win
Never gonna win this war
[Chorus]
I was your anger
And you were my fear
And now that it's over
Of course it's so clear
But you were no angel
And I was no sin
But somehow I can't let it go
Can't let it go
