Alaska (UK) - Can't Let Go lyrics

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
