Well, you're the closest thing I have
To bring up in a conversation
About a love that didn't last
But I could never call you mine'Cause I could never call myself yours
And if we were really meant to be
Well, then we justify destiny
It's not that our love died, just never really bloomedNo, I can't let go , no, I can't let go of you
You're holding me back without even trying to
I can't let go, I can't move on from the past
Without lifting a finger you're holding me backAnd then we saw our paths diverge
And I guess I felt okay about it
Until you got with another man
And then I couldn't understand why it bothered me soHow we didn't die
We just never had a chance to growI can't let go, no, I can' let go of you
You're holding me back without even trying to
I can't let go, I can't move on from the past.
Without lifting a finger you're holding me backAnd it might not make much sense to you or any of my friends
Though somehow still you affect the things I do
And you can't lose what you never had, I don't understand why I feel sad
Every time I see you out with someone newI can't let go, no, I can't let go
No, I can't let go of youI can't let go, no, I can't let go of you
You're holding me back without even trying to
I can't let go, I can't move on from the past
Without lifting a finger you're holding me backI can't let go, no, I can't let go of you
You're holding me back without even trying to
I can't let go, I can't move on from the past
