Keepsake

Keepsake—Grace Potter & The Nocturnals

You always hated the way I lived

You never wanted the things I had to give

There's still something that keeps you holding on

Even if it's something only you can do

I'll never be the one to say we're through

But if you play the game I'm gonna play the fool

You're holding on to me like a keepsake

Holding on to me like a keepsake

Why won't you give my heart a break and just let me go

Baby let me go

You keep my love in a little box

I tried to pick the lock but

You keep me hiding out behind your closet door

Tell me why you got to treat me so unkind

You keep me out of sight and out of your mind

Come on and open me up I can't take it no more

You're holding on to me like a keepsake

Holding on to me like a keepsake

Why won't you give my heart a break and just let me go

Baby let me go

When you try to touch my soul

Your fingertips are always cold

In my chest your souvenir you buried me like treasure

Then you forgot you left me here

Holding on to me like a keepsake

Holding on to me like a keepsake

Why won't you give my heart a break and just let me go

Holding on to me like a keepsake

Maybe you love me but it's too late

Why won't you give my heart a break and just let me go

Baby let me go

Let me go
