Take your time love, it's slow but it's steady I'm not blind I just don't think you're ready 'Cause you're holding me like you lost somebody else I'm asking for your sake and not for myself Let him go I know you're hurt and you're trying to forget You're working through things that you're not over yet But don't hold me while thinking on somebody else I'm asking for your sake and not for myself Let him go God knows I've waited for a night such as this Hard as it is I know I should resist you While every word that you said may be true There are still things you need to work through And there's no point pretending you don't know any better, you do You know I want you, to say that you will 'Cause I've always loved you, and I love you still But you're holding me thinking of somebody else I'm asking for your sake and not for myself Let him go God knows I've waited for a night such as this Hard as it is I know I should resist you While every word that you said may be true There are still things you need to work through And there's no point pretending you don't know any better, you do
