Alaska: Can't let go [lyrics]

Alaska

Can't let go

Oh selfish lover, someday you'll discover

That you're chasing a game, just a losing game

You said that you were running when really you were gunning

For a boy to come on naturally

Oh lonely heart, you know you're worlds apart

From a friend to lend a guiding hand

Oh it's time you learned your lesson, girl I'm no possession

You know I ain't no one-night stand

You left me standing you left me out of control

You left me standing you left me out of control

No matter what you do I'm never coming back to you

No matter what you say you're gonna have to find another way

They call you the stealer but you were just a dealer

And you wouldn't know a friend if he held you by the hand

No good in me explaining, this heart that you've been claiming

Can't take another sleepless night

The smile that won me over really turned me over

Has got me thinking like a fool

You took me without warning, now I think I'm stalling

Tell me why you treat me so cruel

You don't understand - I'm only doing the best I can

How was I to know that I'd have to let you go
