I Can't Let Go Lyrics

I try and I try but I can't say goodbye
Feel so bad baby, ooh, it hurts me
When I think of how you love and desert me
I'm the broken hearted toy you play with, baby

I can't let go, baby
I'm . . . I'm hung on you
Baby, I . . . I can't let go
Though I'm just one of your lovers
And I know there are so many others
You do something strange to me, baby, baby

You got me goin', I need you baby
I can't let go, and I want you baby
I gotta have you you know
And I can't let go
Though I'm just one of your lovers
And I know there are so many others
You do something strange to me, baby, baby
I try and I try but I can't say goodbye
I know that it's wrong and I should be so strong
But the thought of you gone makes me want to hold on

You got me goin', I need you baby
I can't let go, and I want you baby
I gotta have you, you know
And I can't let go
Though I'm just one of your lovers
And I know there are so many others
You do something strange to me, baby, baby
I try and I try but I can't say goodbye
I know that it's wrong and I should be so strong
But the thought of you gone makes me want to hold on

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
