[Verse 1]
I can still remember yesterday
We were so in love in a special way
And knowing that you love me
Made me feel, oh, so right
But now I feel lost
Don't know what to do
Each and every day I think of you
Holdin' back the tears
I'm trying with all my might

[Pre-Chorus]
Because you've gone and left me standin' all alone
And I know I've got to face tomorrow on my own

[Chorus]
But baby, before I let you go
I want to say, "I love you"
I hope that you're listenin' 'cause it's true, baby
You'll be forever in my heart
And I know that no one else will do, ooh-yeah
So before I let you go
I want to say, "I love you"

[Verse 2]
I wish that it could be just like before
I know I could've given you so much more
Even though you know I've given you all my love
I miss your smile, I miss your kiss
Each and every day I reminisce
'Cause baby it's you that I'm always dreaming of
[Pre-Chorus]
Because you've gone and left me standin' all alone
And I know I've got to face tomorrow on my own

[Chorus]
But baby, before I let you go
I want to say, "I love you"
I hope that you're listenin' 'cause it's true, baby
You'll be forever in my heart
And I know that no one else will do, ooh-yeah
So before I let you go
I want to say, yeah

[Bridge]
Letting love go is never easy
But I love you so that's why I set you free, yeah
I know someday, somehow I'll find a way
To leave it all behind me
I guess it wasn't meant to be

[Chorus]
But baby, before I let you go
I want to say, "I love you"
I hope that you're listenin' 'cause it's true, baby
You'll be forever in my heart
And I know that no one else will do, ooh-yeah
So before I let you go
I want to say, yeah
[Outro]
So before I let you go
I want to say, yeah-yeah
"I love you"
