She Can't Let Go

When I talk to her, I know she doesn't hear me

She seems to be a million miles away

When the lights start to dim she'll be thinking of him

She loves him so, she can't let goIt's been long enough for her to just forget him

But still she sees his face in every crowd

She walks out of the room when they're playing that tune

That's how I know she can't let goShe can't let go though she knows it's really over

She can't let go though she knows he's really gone

And I can't compete with a rose-colored memory

A memory that lingers on and onI've tried everything but now there's only waiting

For the last dying embers to fade

Oh, she wants to be free but when she's holding me

That's when I know she can't let go

I love her so but she can't let go
