I know we're past tense
Its been a minute since
We were a couple
And, walking and holding hands
Kisses and I love you's
Doing what lovers do
Baby
But baby that was then
Cause now we don't
Talk no more
You've got a new man
And, it shouldn't bother me
But girl it's driving me, crazy
And everybody says
Boy why don't you just leave it alone
But I don't think I can

[Chorus:] I sit up all night
Thinkin' bout ya
And I know it ain't right, baby
But I don't
I don't think that I
Don't think I can let go (Don't think I can let you go)
I sit up all night
Thinkin' bout ya
And I know it ain't right, baby
But I don't
I don't think that I (Can let go)

I'm holding on to hope
I know it's foolish though
Thinking that someday she might come back
Wish on it all the time
Knowin' it never may happen
But see I'm not a fool
'cause now we don't
Talk no more
You got a new man and
But, I'm gonna keep it safe
I've got the patience
That some lack…
But everybody says
Boy why don't you just leave it alone
But I don't think I can

[Chorus:] I sit up all night
Thinkin' bout ya
And I know it ain't right, baby
But I don't
I don't think that I
Don't think I can let go (Said I don't think that I can let you go)
I sit up all night
Thinkin' bout ya
And I know it ain't right, baby
But I don't
I don't think that I (That I)
Can let go

[Interlude] I don't think that I can let you go
I can't let you go
Oh no….
I don't think that I can let go
Let go…
And everybody saaaaaays… Hey
And I don't think I can

[Chorus (With Ad-Libs)] I sit up all night
Thinkin' bout ya
And I know it ain't right, baby
But I don't
I don't think that I
Don't think I can let go (I don't think that I can let you go)
I sit up all night
Thinkin' bout ya
And I know it ain't right, baby
But I don't
I don't think that I can let go
