Day after day

I can hear you thinking of words you just won't say

So out of my way

Will it hurt; who knows

Well I hope and I pray

That you will forgive me

That I have to leave this way



So long (so long) so long

Before you break my heart

And I thought I had to let you know

Hold on (hold on) hold on

It's tearing me apart

Now it's all about letting

All about letting go



It's all I can do

To protect my heart from falling into you

I've gotta get through

To lift myself from out of these blues

Darling forgive me

That I have to leave this way



So long (so long) so long

Before you break my heart

And I thought I had to let you know

Hold on (hold on) hold on

It's tearing me apart

Now it's all about letting

All about letting go



So would you believe it

If I packed up my bags and just go

You should've seen it

But do you still care I don't know

I don't care



So long (so long) so long

Before you break my heart

And I thought I had to let you know

Hold on (hold on) hold on

It's tearing me apart

Now it's all about letting

All about letting go
