Can't Let It Go (Album Version)

You said you'd light a candle

And you'd say a prayer for me

I feel the light has dimmed and gone

Half the world is begging

While the other half steals

Why is everything so wrong?

Some days I can't believe

Others I'm on my knees

Trying to be heard

I was your anger

And you were my fear

Now that it's over

Of course it's so clear

But you were no angel

And I was no sin

Somehow I can't let you go

I can't let you go again

And 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

Some days I can't believe

Others I'm on my knees

Hoping I belong

I was your anger

And you were my fear

Now that it's over

Of course it's so clear

But you were no angel

And I was no sin

Somehow I can't let you go

I can't let you go again

And laughter is my soul's release

But we're not smiling anymore

Can't we try to win this peace

'Cause we're never gonna win

Never gonna win this war

I was your anger

And you were my fear

Now that it's over

Of course it's so clear

But you were no angel

And I was no sin

Somehow I can't let you go

I can't let you go again
