I Cannot Let You Go Lyrics

We're sleight of hand
And force of will
Closets full of outsized shoes to fill
I better be
A gifted kid
To undo some of the deeds you did
And one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight
You're gonna be alone gonna be alone it's gonna be late
Forgive you anything
Try to shake it but it just won't do

And it's all coming back to me now
So we'll pretend I'll make up something new
You can push me away but I cannot let you go
I cannot let you go
I cannot let you go

The rubber band is wearing thin
Bursting as reality kicks in
All hope should be at long last laws
But you defy all sense at any cost
And one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight
You're gonna be alone gonna be alone it's gonna be late
Forgive you anything
Try to shake it but it just won't do
And it's all coming back to me now
So we'll pretend I'll make up something new
But there's no getting back to the start
I try to shake it but it just won't do
You can push me away but I cannot let you go
I cannot let you go
I cannot let you go
I cannot let you go

And one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight
You're gonna be alone gonna be alone gonna be late
Forgive you anything
Try to shake it but it just won't do
And it's all coming back to me now
So let's pretend to make up something new
But there's no getting back to the start
I'll be a father you can be a son
Till I can't even tell us apart
Try to shake it but the deal is done
You can push me away but I cannot let you go
I cannot let you go
Try as I may I know I cannot let you go
I cannot let you go
I cannot let you go
I cannot let you go
I cannot let you go

I cannot let you go
