Westlife – If I Let You Go

"If I Let You Go" as written by David Bengt Kreuger, J�rgen Kjell Elofsson and Per Olof Magnusson....
Day after day
Time pass away
And I just can't get you out my mind
Nobody knows
I hide it inside
I keep on searching
But I can't find
The courage to show
To letting you know
I never felt so much love before
And once again
I'm thinking about
Taking the easy way out

But if I let you go
I will never know
What's my life would be
Holding you close to me
Will I ever see
You smiling back at me
How will I know
If I let you go

Night after night
I hear myself say
What can't this feeling just fade away
There's no one like you
Can speak to my heart
It's just a shame we worlds apart
I'm too shy to ask
I'm too proud to lose
But sooner or later
I've got to choose
And once again
I'm thinking about
taking the easy way out

But if I let you go
I will never know
What's my life would be
Holding you close to me
Will I ever see
You smiling back at me
How will I know
If I let you go

    General Commentdammn this song is a perfect description of my love dilema at the moment. shes my classmate and i really love her, but i think another classmate, my good friend likes her as well. another girl likes me too and im really thinking of giving up the one i love now to settle for the other girl.

    Im to shy to ask, im to proud to lose
    But sooner or later i've got to choose.

    spot on, this is

    General CommentThis song relates to me a lot. This may sound sad, but i've had a very strong relationship with a girl over the net, and she is just amazing. But with the distance has come doubt, and she is thinking about calling it a day without making the effort.

    Anyway, a long distance relationship, which could work, but one party doesn't want it to end. This would be lifechanging for both parties if they stuck with it leading a happy life together.

    General CommentSomeone who loves this girl . She understands him like no other and he hides it fo whatever reason but doesn’t let her go because he can’t stand the thought of being away from her outand not knowing
    Again he says he’s shy and proud at the same time and thinks of taking the easy way out
    Wor ld apart could be literal or inhis his mind.

    Don’t le her go
