But I Can't Let You Go

Meredith Edwards

(David Nail/Robin Wiley) 

Hoah 

I can say that we are through 
And I will almost mean it 
But simple words just can't undo 
All the ties between us 
Part of me will hang on 
Long after your gone 
Though it's the right thing for you I know 
I can watch you leave 
But I can't let you go 

I will be your friend 
I will dry your tears 
Though I won't be the one you give your love to 
Through the years 
And I will do my best 
Not to let you know 
That I can watch you leave 
But I can't let you go 

I will smile and say I'm fine 
Anytime you ask me 
I wish for you a love like mine 
But one that makes you happy 
You'll always own every part 
Of this broken heart 
Though I would die before I'd let it show 
I can watch you leave (I can watch you leave) 
But I can't let you go 

I will be your friend 
And I will dry your tears 
Though I won't be the one you give your love to 
Through the years 
And I will do my best 
Not to let you know 
That I can watch you leave 
But I can't let you go 

And I will do my best 
Not to let you know 
That I can watch you leave 
(I can watch you leave) 
But I can't let you go 
(Can't let you, can't let you, can't let you go) 
Can't let you go
