There goes my ol' girlfriend, there's another diamond ring
And, uh, all those late night promises I guess they don't mean a thing
So baby what's the story? Did ya… find another man?
Is it easy to sleep in the bed that we made?
When you don't look back I guess the feeling starts to fade away
I used to feel yo' fire but now it's cold inside
And you're back on the street like you didn't miss a beat, yeah
Tell me what it takes to let you go
Tell me how's the pain supposed to go
Tell me how it is that you can sleep, in the night
Without thinking you lost everything that was good in your
life to the toss of the dice?
Tell me what it takes to let you go, yeah
Girl before I met you I was F.I.N.E, fine
But your love made me a prisoner, yeah my heart's been doin' time
You spent me up like money, then ya… hung me out to dry
It was easy to keep all yo' lies in disguise
'Cause you had me in deep with the devil in your eyes
Tell me what it takes to let you go… (yeee-hooh)
Tell me how's the pain supposed to go
Tell me how it is that you can sleep, in the night
Without thinking you lost everything that was good in yo'
life to the toss of the dice?
Tell me what it takes to let you go…
Guitar!
Tell me that you're happy that you're on your own… Yeah, yeah, yeah
Tell me that is better when you're all alone
Tell me that your body doesn't miss my touch
Tell me that my lovin' didn't mean that much
Tell me you ain't dying when you're cryin' for me!
Tell me what it takes to let you go, (ooooh)
Tell me how's the pain supposed to go
Tell me how it is that you can sleep, in the night
Without thinking you lost everything that was good in your
life to the toss of the dice?
Tell me who's to blame for thinkin' twice No, no, no, no
'Cause I don't wanna burn in paradise… oooooh!
Let go, let go, let go, I don't wanna burn in paradise
Let it go, let it go, let it go
I don't wanna burn, I don't wanna burn… Let go
Let it go, let it go, let it go
