Edwards Meredith - But I Can't Let You Go lyrics

I can say that we are through And I will almost mean it But simple words just can't undo All the ties between us Part of me will hang on Long after your gone Though it's the right thing for you I know I can watch you leave But I can't let you go I will be your friend I will dry your tears Though I won't be the one you give your love to Through the years And I will do my best Not to let you know That I can watch you leave But I can't let you go I will smile and say I'm fine Anytime you ask me I wish for you a love like mine But one that makes you happy You'll always own every part Of this broken heart Though I would die before I'd let it show I can watch you leave (I can watch you leave) But I can't let you go I will be your friend And I will dry your tears Though I won't be the one you give your love to Through the years And I will do my best Not to let you know That I can watch you leave But I can't let you go
