Sondre Lerche - I Cannot Let You GoLyrics

With sleight of hand and force of will Closets full of odd-sized shoes to fill I better be a gifted kid To undo some of the deeds you did In 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 You're gonna be alone, gonna be alone, it's gonna be late Forgive you anything I try to shake it but it just won't do And it's all coming back to me now So we'll pretend or make up something new You can push me away but I cannot let you go (let you go) I cannot let you go (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 lost But you'll defy all sense at any cost In 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 You're gonna be alone, gonna be alone, it's gona be late Forgive you anything I try to shake it but it just won't do And it's all coming back to me now So let's pretend or 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 (let you go) I cannot let you go (let you go) I cannot let you go, I cannot let you go In 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8 You're gonna be alone, gonna be alone, it's gonna be late Forgive you anything I try to shake it but it just won't do And it's all coming back to me now So let's pretend or make up something new But there's no getting back to the start I'll be a father, you can be the son Till I can't even tell us apart I tried to shake it but the deal is done You can push me away but I cannot let you go (let you go) I cannot let you go (let you go) Try as I may I know I cannot let you go (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
