We often fool ourselves And say that it's love Only 'cause when it's gone We end up being lonely So how are we to know That it just isn't so That we just have to let each other go? There were many times When we shared precious moments But later realized They were only stolen moments So how are we to know That it just wasn't so That we just had to let each other go? If loving you is all that means to me When being happy is all I hope you'd be Then loving you must mean I really have to set you free Each day we meet My love for you keeps growing stronger But everytime we meet Makes leaving you so much harder So how are we to know That this just wasn't so That we just have to let each other go? If loving you is all that means to me When being happy is all I hope you'd be Then loving you must mean I really have to set you free Letting go is not an easy task When smiling feels like I must wear this lonely mask It hurts deep inside and I just cannot hide That there's anguish at the thought That we should have to part If loving you is all that means to me When being happy is all I hope you'd be Then loving you must mean I really have to set you free If loving you is all that means to me When being happy is all I hope you'd be Then loving you must mean I really have to set you free
