I Gotta Let You Go

Oh, you've hurt me
For the very last time
You can bet it won't happen again
Cause all over town
You've been playing around
This time with my best friend.

Boy, no need in explaining
Cause you'll just be
Wasting your time
Boy, I gotta let you.

I gotta let you go
Even though I love you.

I've got a fella that loves me
Those words I used to proudly say
But you've made me
So blue by being untrue
Tell me, what made
Your love go astray.

Boy, I was better to you
Ain't it true, than I was to myself
So I gotta let you.

I gotta let you go
Even though I love you, yeah.

I gotta let you go
Even though I love you.

Boy, I've accepted the fact
That you no longer belong to me
Though I want you to stay
Boy, be on your way
Consider yourself free, oh, baby.

I realize that
Everyone makes a mistake
Well, I gotta let you.

I gotta let you go
Even though I love you
I-I-I gotta let you go, boy
Even though I love you.

I know I'm gonna cry
But I've got to say bye bye
Even though I love you
The tears in my eyes
Show the hurt I feel inside
Even though I love you.

Ooh, I-I-I gotta let you go, boy
Even though I love you
Ooh...
