It Won't Let Go

Sittin' on the floor of my bedroom cryin'

Tears like rain on rooftops

Scars on my heart from the war I've been fightin'

And I pray like hell but the pain won't stop

When you know that the boy you love keeps lettin' you down

When the boy you love is killin' you right now

When the boy you love keeps runnin' around

You got two eyes, but you don't see

And you ain't blind, but you won't leave him

I've tried to walk away

I've tried to leave him before

Threw it all in an old suitcase

Got as far as the front door

No it ain't no perfect love

It's all that I've ever known

My heart's still holdin' on tight

So tight that it won't let go

It won't let go

My heart's still holdin' on tight, and it won't let go

A small town girl, small town options

Like another camp song on the radio

Your heart skipped a beat and the beat hadn't stopped

But this ain't Jack and Dianne, gotta let him go

Y'all ain't Jack and Dianne, gotta let him go

I've tried to walk away

I've tried to leave him before

Threw it all in an old suitcase

Got as far as the front door

No it ain't no perfect love

It's all that I've ever known

My heart's still holdin' on tight

So tight that it won't let go

It won't let go

My heart's still holdin' on tight, and it won't let go

Go, it won't let go

My heart's still holdin' on tight, and it won't let go

And you know that the boy you love keeps lettin' you down

And the boy you love is killin' you right now

And the boy you love keeps runnin' around

I've tried to walk away

I've tried to leave him before

Got as far as the front door

I've tried to walk away

I've tried to leave him before

Threw it all in an old suitcase

Got as far as the front door

No it ain't no perfect love

It's all that I've ever known

My heart's still holdin' on tight

So tight that it won't let go

It won't let go

My heart's still holdin' on tight, and it won't let go
