[Verse 1]
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
[Pre Chorus]
That you will forgive me
That I have to leave this way
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 2]
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
[Pre Chorus]
Darling forgive me
That I have to leave this way
[Chorus]
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
[Bridge]
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
[Chorus]
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
