Can't Let It Go

You said you'd light a candle and you'd say a prayer for me

Well I feel the light has dimmed and gone

And half the world is begging while the other half steals

Oh where did everything go wrong?Well some days I can't believe

Others I'm on my knees

Trying to be heardI was your anger and you were my fear

and now that it's over, of course it's so clear

But you were no angel and I was no sin

But somehow I can't let it go, can't let it goHalf the world is sleeping while the other half dreams

You close your eyes and then you're gone

And maybe my intentions have been misunderstood

I know you feel so beautifully wrongedSome days I can't believe

Others I'm on my knees

Hoping I belongI was your anger and you were my fear

And now that it's over, of course it's so clear

But you were no angel and I was no sin

But somehow I can't let it go, can't let it goAnd laughter is my soul's release

But we're not smiling anymore

And can't we try to win this peace?

'Cause we're never gonna win, never gonna win this warI was your anger and you were my fear

And now that it's over, of course it's so clear

But you were no angel and I was no sin

But somehow I can't let it go, can't let it go
