Let You Go
LINN KRISTIN Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We go in circles and around once more
It hurts me that you never listen or learn
There's no action you just wanna cause a distraction
Oh I know that you're no good for me
Oh we keep this record on repeat
You say that I can never let you go
Oh I wish I could but how I don't know
Keep going back to what we never had
Keep on distracting me with words and your laugh
I cannot lie cause this is what I always do
Run back to comfort my comfort zone is you
Oh I know that you're no good for me
Oh we keep this record on repeat
You say that I can never let you go
Oh I wish I could but how I don't know
Oh
How I don't know
I wanna know
I wanna know
I wanna know
How to let you go
I wanna know
I wanna know
I wanna know
How to let you go
Oh I know that you're no good for me
Oh we keep this record on repeat
You say that I can never let you go
Oh I wish I could but how I don't know
Oh
How I don't know
I wanna know
I wanna know
I wanna know
How to let you go
