Trapped in a love for years
And now I think I've found the real thing
And when I think about your tears
And all the joy that true love can bring
What can I do? -- I gotta find a way to tell you
What can I say? - 'cause I don't want to break your heart

Let her go and start over
There ain't nothing that'a you can do
Let her go and start over
Baby, it's up to you
Let her go and start over
There ain't nothing that'a you can say
Let her go and start over yea...

How can I tell you, baby?
After all the good times we've seen?
I know I gotta leave but maybe
You think I'm trying to be mean
What can I do? - Now I know I love another?
What can I say? - It hurts you when I say I love her
What can I do to be fair to me -- to be fair to you?

My friends tell me
Let her go and start over
There ain't nothing that'a you can do
Let her go and start over
Baby, it's up to you
Let her go and start over
There ain't nothing that'a you can say
Let her go and start over yea...
And - What can I do? -- I gotta find a way to tell you
What can I say? - 'cause I don't want to break your heart that way
What can I do to be fair to me -- to be fair to you?

My friends tell me
Let her go and start over
There ain't nothing that I can do
Let her go and start over
Baby, it's up to you
Let her go and start over
There ain't nothing that'a you can say
Let her go and start over yea...
Don't understand you anyway
Let her go and start over

Let her go, Let her go, Let her go, Let her go and start over
Let her go and start over
There ain't nothing, There ain't nothing that you can do
Let her go and start over
Let her go, Let her go, Let her go, Let her go and start over
Let her go and start over
