I Can't Let Go (SMASH Cast Version) [feat. Jennifer Hudson]

I Can't Let Go (SMASH Cast Version) - SMASH Cast/Jennifer Hudson (詹尼佛·哈德森)

They say nothing lasts forever

Well I wish that that were true

Cause this aching in my heart won't go away

They say everything must change

They say that time will see it through

Well I've listened and I've waited for that day

But I wake up with this anger

And the pain won't let me be

And the smile I share is only there for show

If I hang on to this heartache

Then my soul will not be free

So I keep trying but I just cannot let go

I can't let go

I need it to remind me

I can't let go

Oh I just repeat the past

And though your arms are saying "Yes"

I feel my heart keeps saying "No"

I want to love you but I can't let go

I have lived through bad beginnings

And I've seen unhappy ends

So I close the book before the story starts

I'm just a witness to my lifetime

And I'm a stranger to my friends

I'm a trafficker of broken damaged hearts

Now you ask me to start over

But it's easier said than done

And the memories are strong when they arise

And when heartache comes a'calling

I won't even try to run

'Cause it's all that makes me know that I'm alive

I can't let go

I need it to remind me

I can't let go

Oh I just repeat the past

And though your arms are saying yes

I feel my heart keeps saying no

I want to love you (I want to love you)

I want to love you (I want to love you)

Oh I want to love you

But I can't let go (I can't let go)

No I can't let go (I can't let go)

Won't you help me

Help me to let go
