You don't care if it's wrong or right.
you just want to give up the fight.
But i can see that there's something left,
something that makes you want to stay.
[chorus]
So i can't let you go.
i can't stand by and watch you leave.
I've gotta make you see that there's more to life than what you're living.
and I'm not ready to say goodbye.
I think you need to look around.
at yourself, at your thoughts and not at the ground.
cause i can tell that you're just misunderstood.
And you would start again if you could.
[chorus]
So i can't let you go.
i can't stand by and watch you leave.
I've gotta make you see that there's more to life than what you're living.
and I'm not ready to say goodbye.
[bridge]
and there's no point in wanting to be somebody else.
and there's no use in watching your life go to waste.
So just pick yourself up off the floor,
and remember that you were happy before.
So i can't let you go,
i can't stand by and watch you leave.
I've gotta make you see,
that it's not as bad as it may seem...
I won't let you go,
i won't stand by and watch you leave.
i will make you see that there's more to life than what you're living.
and you, you're not ready to say goodbye.
