Can't Let Go Lyrics

In a world where being sensible
Means holding back,
How am I suppose to
Say what's on my mind?
In a world that taught me
How to say what's in my heart,
Why am I suppose to
Keep it to myself?
In a world where being honest
Always has it's price

How much do I pay,
And where do I sign?

And when the curtain falls too soon,
Alone inside an empty room,
I'll still be waiting there
For you...

The longer that it takes to say good-bye,
The stronger the fire will burn inside
But I,... I can't let go

In a world where getting hurt
Is just another fact of life,
Where am I suppose to go
To dry my tears?
In a world where common sense tells me
To turn the page,
Why do I find it so hard
To walk away?

And when the curtain falls too soon,
Alone inside an empty room,
I'll still be waiting there
For you...

And when the camera fades to gray,
And you've said all you've had to say,
There's still the memory of your face

The longer that it takes to say good-bye,
The stronger the fire will burn inside
But I,... I can't let go
