Sometimes after a break-up, you can't let go, b/c you wonder, 'Who's going to replace me?' And this ballad is all about that!
Hip, Pop, Soul, R&B
I'm a 23 year old Hip-Pop-Soul singer from Austin, TX. I currently reside in Dallas, TX. I'm influenced by SO many different artists and so many different types of music. I don't like to define my sound. I like to try and open to all sorts of different ideas. I write every lyric to every song I sing. [That is SO important to me.] When you hear a track, I always want you to feel like you were there living it with me. And by the time the song is over, you won't have any questions about what I was thinking/feeling or going through. Tune in, have FUNN, dance, and feel me!
Lyrics
chorus
I know I need to let this go. [let go]
I know I need to let this ride. [that's right]
Some say I should move on.
But I couldn't if I tried.
Because it hit me that I may have actually made a mistake.
And I wanna make it right but, it's too late.
So, I'll never, [never forget you]
And if I could I, [I'd get back with you]
Can't stand the thought of, who's gonna get you.
And who's gonna hold you?
And love you after me?

Sometimes I know I,
I can be hard to read.
And I don't like depending on someone else to,
Make me complete.
So, I close myself.
I raise my guard.
I do my best,
To protect my heart.
It's all I know,
This cycle never ends.
It's starts over, and over, and over again.
My friends said, "what's your deal? You wanna end up all alone?"
And I thought, "Hm? Hm? Hm? I don't know?"
What's with this attitude that you can make it on your own?
I still thought, "Hm? Hm? Hmm? I don't know?"
I usually make decisions, and stick with them right or wrong.
But I can't help but think that you were,
The one that got away.
It was my biggest mistake.
I know I need to let this go. [let go]
I know I need to let this ride. [that's right]
Some say I should move on.
But I couldn't if I tried.
Because it hit me that I may have actually made a mistake.
And I wanna make it right but, it's too late.
So, I'll never, [never forget you]
And if I could I, [I'd get back with you]
Can't stand the thought of, who's gonna get you.
And who's gonna hold you?
And love you after me?
V2
The thought of it ain't easy.
I wonder who's gonna love me?
Will I find what we had again?
Or am I facing a dead end?
'Cause I found that if you find someone who can put up with you.
And the feelings reciprocal and you can put up with them too.
It can be the most perfect fit of your life.
And I let that go,
But I didn't know.
Guess I got afraid,
And that feeling made,
Me protect my heart,
This cycle never ends.
It starts over and over and over again.
And my friends asked, what it's gonna take to get you off my mind.
And I thought, "Hm Hm Hmm? I don't know?"
They said I gotta do what's best, and move on with my life.
I still thought, "Hm Hm Hmm? Don't think so!"
This pain is haunting me.
My tears won't set me free.
Things won't look up for me,
Until I make this right.
I know I need to let this go. [let go]
I know I need to let this ride. [that's right]
Some say I should move on.
But I couldn't if I tried.
Because it hit me that I may have actually made a mistake.
And I wanna make it right but, it's too late.
So, I'll never, [never forget you]
And if I could I, [I'd get back with you]
Can't stand the thought of, who's gonna get you.
And who's gonna hold you?
And love you after me?
