Píseň: Let Me Go

Interpret:
Barry Manilow
Album:
This One's For You ‎
I never feared the devil
or the gypsy in my soul
But you're not on the level
and I'm not in control
And I'm afraid your baby blues
are just too much for me
And I'm afraid I'll lose my heart
if you don't set me free


Let me go!
I don't wanna believe you
I just wanna be gone
I just wanna be gone
Let me go!
Don't say how much I need you
Say goodnite and move on
Say goodnite and move on


If you get me under your spell
I'll be lost for good, I can tell
Let me go!
Don't let me love you
Let me go!


Hey, I never bought a hustle
and I never took a dive
I've always had the muscle
to get through love alive
But I'm afraid your lovely lies
might just do me right in
And I'm afraid to play tonite
cause I know that I won't win


Let me go!
I don't wanna be lovers
I just wanna be free
I just wanna be, wanna be, wanna be free
Let me go!
You've got so many others
Have some pity on me
Some pity on me


On my own I'm doin' just great
So don't mess around with my fate
Let me go!
Don't let me love you
Let me go!
