Goo Goo Dolls - Can't Let It Go lyrics

[Verse 1] You said you'd light a candle And you'd say a prayer for me I feel the light has dimmed and gone Half the world is begging While the other half steals Where did everything go wrong? [Chorus 1] Some days I can't believe Others, I'm on my knees Trying to be heard [Chorus 2] I was your anger And you were my fear Now that it's over Of course it's so clear But you were no angel And I was no sin Somehow I can't let it go I can't let it go [Verse 2] And half the world is sleeping While the other half dreams You close your eyes And then you're gone And maybe my intentions Have been misunderstood I know you feel so beautifully wronged [Chorus 1] [Chorus 2] [Bridge] And laughter is my soul's release But we're not smiling anymore And can't we try to win this peace? 'Cause we're never going to win Never going to win this war [Chorus 2]
