[Fabolous]
You don't need to prolong, you can let him know
You ain't gotta hold on, you can let him go
I know you probably need a soldier, yo
You can tell him that Bobby V. told you so
You don't need to prolong, you can let him know
You ain't gotta hold on, you can let him go
I know you probably need a soldier, yo
You can tell him that Loso told you so

I see the temperature's rising
It's too hot for you to stay in there
What he's puttin' you through
It doesn't fit you, and it's hurtin' me deeply
You're from the best side of town
Grew up with both parents around
But your man don't know love
So he can't show love like you need it
(In the beginning everything was fine
Spending money on you all the time)
It's never too late; I'll help you escape and fly

[Chorus:]
(Baby, just let him go)
There's no tears left to cry; don't cry no more
(Baby, just let him go)
Oh baby (baby, let go, and, baby, let go)
(Baby, just him go)
Ain't nothin' wrong with moving on to get what you want
(Baby, just let him go)
(Baby, let go, and, baby, let go)
(Baby, just let him go)

You're feeling all alone and scared
'Cause you let him get in your head
He's filling your mind with all those lies
Like without him your nothin'
Baby, don't believe a word
He's gonna get what he deserves
But in the meantime just hop in my ride
I'll show you what love is
(Baby, don't pack nothing
Leave the memories and all that pain)
It's never too late; baby, escape tonight

[Chorus]

[Fabolous]
They say when you had enough of 'em, you let him go
Baby, I ain't into cuffin' him; I let 'em know
Sometimes you gotta shuffle 'em and spread 'em slow
And just when you think you bluffin' 'em, you let 'em show
I keep the poker face; ain't nothin' funny, son
Soon as the joker chase, that's when the money run
Like twenty-one, I'm a winner who can make you fold that
Nigga, get a new hand
New man and a new deck of cards
You wanna play with squares, buy a new checkerboard
Dude, check a broad; if she too extra God
I throw 'em out; no problem to take 'em broads
Let 'em go; I can be wit' two naked broads
In a mansion have them two neckin' hard
So, baby, loose your grip
You could use a trip away
Fabolous vay cay

[Bridge:]
I know you don't need no help
But you be better by yourself
You're headed down a dead end road
Don't let him kill your soul
My love is here for you
Even if you ain't wit' me
Just promise you'll run away
What I'm tryin' to say...

[Chorus]

All you gotta do is just let him go
All you gotta do is just let him go
All you gotta do is just let him go
All you gotta do is just let him go
All you gotta do is just let him go
All you gotta do is just let him go
All you gotta do is just let him go
All you gotta do is just let him go

Light Up The Sky
Van Halen
The song lyrics were written by the band Van Halen, as they were asked to write a song for the 1979 movie "Over the Edge" starring Matt Dillon. The movie (and the lyrics, although more obliquely) are about bored, rebellious youth with nothing better to do than get into trouble. If you see the movie, these lyrics will make more sense. It's a great movie if you grew up in the 70s/80s you'll definitely remember some of these characters from your own life. Fun fact, after writing the song, Van Halen decided not to let the movie use it.

Bron-Y-Aur Stomp
Led Zeppelin
This is about bronies. They communicate by stomping.

Holiday
Bee Gees
@[Diderik:33655] "Your a holiday!" Was a popular term used in the 50s/60s to compliment someone on their all around. For example, not only are they beautiful, but they are fun and kind too ... just an all around "holiday". I think your first comment is closer to being accurate. The singer/song writers state "Millions of eyes can see, yet why am i so blind!? When the someone else is me, its unkind its unkind". I believe hes referring to the girl toying with him and using him. He wants something deeper with her, thats why he allows himself to be as a puppet (even though for her fun and games) as long as it makes her happy. But he knows deep down that she doesnt really want to be serious with him and thats what makes him.

Page
Ed Sheeran
There aren’t many things that’ll hurt more than giving love a chance against your better judgement only to have your heart crushed yet again. Ed Sheeran tells such a story on “Page.” On this track, he is devastated to have lost his lover and even more saddened by the feeling that he may never move on from this.
