I’ve seen you step out of the restroom, girl

Wiping those swollen eyes

You say you’re handling your wrath, huh girl?

You know that’s just dreams and lies

I’ve heard you yell at him to stay away, while cursing the day you met

But you’re so hung up on how to make him pay

I ain’t seen him move out yet

It’s time you realized the blame is yours

Make yourself responsible

You can’t go on talking by slamming doors

That’s not how you take control

It’s not to late to mend that life of yours

Though love’s unrepairable

But what you need now is a change of course

Him breaking won’t make you whole

Just let him go

Let him go

He’s got to go

Let him go

I’ve heard you tell her you just came from work

When I’ve seen you stroll downtown

And then you wonder why she goes berserk

Boy, I would have turned you down

I know you’re not seeing nobody else

You’re just afraid to make her mad

I know you’re still loving that lady of yours

But man, she just makes you sad

It’s not to late to mend that life of yours

Though love’s unrepairable

But what you need now is a change of course

Her breaking won’t make you whole

Just let her go

Let her go

She’s got to go

Let her go

You can’t forgive him

For that, he won’t forgive you, no

Can’t go on living, loving him but not letting him know

You can’t desert her, and still think you deserve her trust

Now, you’re just hurting

But if you’d just say

“Thank you and goodbye”

“Thank you and good luck”

“Off to try your luck”

So you can start mending that life of yours

Start mending that life

It’s not to late to mend that life

And let him go

Let her go

You’ve got to let go

Let her go

You need to let go and just go

Let her go

He’s got to go…
