| You don’t want all of me, you want a piece of me
|
| The part of me I used to give away
|
| And though it’s over now your pride will not allow
|
| For anybody else to take your place
|
| I’ve tried to tell you patiently
|
| Can’t take these feelings casually
|
| 'Cause when it’s down to you and me
|
| I lose my reserve, my moral start to swerve
|
| and suddenly I’m lost in you again
|
| Just when I think I’ve got you out of my mind
|
| You’re at my door and I can’t tell you no
|
| You make it impossible to leave you behind
|
| So back off slow, let me let you go
|
| Let me let you go
|
| You’ve got a jealous streak a look that’s telling me
|
| That maybe you’re not through with me just yet
|
| You saw me yesterday down at the street cafe
|
| With someone who’s been helping me forget
|
| But whenever you come into view
|
| There’s no making room for someone new
|
| I see those eyes still burning blue
|
| And I lose my resolve the room starts to revolve
|
| And suddenly you’re in my arms again
|
| Just when I think I’ve got you out of my mind
|
| You’re at my door and I can’t tell you no
|
| You make it impossible to leave you behind
|
| So back off slow, oh baby, let me let you go
|
| Can’t get you out of my head, out of my head
|
| Keeping me holding, holding
|
| You stop me from moving ahead, moving ahead
|
| Keeping me holding, holding
|
| Can’t get you out of my mind, out of my mind
|
| Keeping me burning, burning
|
| You stop me from moving ahead, moving ahead
|
| Keeping me burning, burning
|
| Whenever you come into view
|
| There’s no making room for someone new
|
| Just when I think I’ve got you out of my mind
|
| You’re at my door and I can’t tell you no
|
| You make it impossible to leave you behind
|
| So back off slow, oh baby, let me let you go
|
| Let me let you go
|
| You gotta let me go
|
| Let me let you go
|
| (Let me let me let you, let me let you go) |
