Let It Go by Tom Russell Lyrics

You've been actin' so tough but you're fallin' apart
Let it go
Everybody knows you've got a broken heart
Let it show
When you wake up alone in the middle of the night
In cold, cold sweat you turn on the light
If she ain't there
Give it up and let it go

When you're thinkin' of things that you might have said
Let it go
When the lies that you told her buzz around in your head
Let it go
"Should've done" - that's a devil's game
Ask anyone that's been driven insane
Should have done, could have done -
Givе it up and let it go

Give it up
Let it go
Lеt it fly away
Time is a healer -
That's what the wise folks say
When you know that you're losing all your self-respect
Let it go
When you're dreamin' of your lips on the back of her neck
Let 'em go
The taste of her skin, the smell of her hair
The Spanish Eyes with their bedroom stare
It ain't fair
So give it up and let it go

When you're reachin' for her in the middle of the night
In cold cold sweat you turn on the light
It ain't fair
Give it up and let it go
