Steve Earle
Can’t Let Go
[Verse 1]
Told you, baby, one more time
Don't make me sit all alone and cry
Well, it's over, I know it but I can't let go

[Verse 2]
I'm like a fish out of water, a cat in a tree
You don't even want to talk to me
Well, it's over, I know it but I can't let go

[Chorus]
He won't take me back when I come around
Says he's sorry then he pulls me out
I got a big chain around my neck
And I'm broken down like a train wreck
Well, it's over, I know it but I can't let go

[Verse 3]
See I got a candle and it burns so bright
In my window every night
Well, it's over, I know it but I can't let go

[Verse 4]
You don't like to see me standing around
Feel like I been shot and didn't fall down
Well, it's over, I know it but I can't let go
[Chorus]
He won't take me back when I come around
Says he's sorry then he pulls me out
I got a big chain around my neck
And I'm broken down like a train wreck
Well, it's over, I know it but I can't let go

[Verse 5]
Turn off the trouble like you turn off a light
Went off and left me, it just ain't right
Well, it's over, I know it but I can't let go

[Verse 6]
Around every corner, something I see
Brings me right back how it used to be
Well, it's over, I know it but I can't let go

[Chorus]
He won't take me back when I come around
Says he's sorry then he pulls me out
I got a big chain around my neck
And I'm broken down like a train wreck
Well, it's over, I know it but I can't let go
He won't take me back when I come around
Says he's sorry then he pulls me out
I got a big chain around my neck
And I'm broken down like a train wreck
Well, it's over, I know it but I can't let go
[Outro]
It's over, I know it but I can't let go
It's over, I know it but I can't let go
It's over, I know it but I can't let go
