Lyrics
Can't You See
Written by: Martina Cline
Verse 1: I've been so lonely,
I've been so blue,
I think it's time I got over you,
I've been callin' out your name,
But you're never there,
I cry in vain.
Chorus: Can't you see my heart,
It's broken in two,
Can't you hear my soul,
It cries out to you,
Can't you see how hard it's been for me,
You gotta let me go,
Gotta set me free.
Verse 2: You know I've been waiting,
For you each day,
Hopin' you'll be by,
Every mornin' I pray,
But you never call & you never come,
Guess I realize the time for me is done.
Chorus: Take away these chains,
That have a hold on me,
Pull out this thorn,
That's caused my heart to bleed,
Can't you see how hard it's been for me,
You gotta let me go,
Gotta set me free.
(Music Solo)
Verse 3: Can't you see,
I'm all dried up inside,
You turned your back,
And tossed my love aside,
Now I realize that it's all been lies,
Every word you spoke,
And every breath you sighed
Chorus: Lord only knows the darkness inside,
I gotta let you go,
Because you let me down,
Can't you see how hard it's been for me,
You gotta let me go,
Gotta set me free.
Bridge: Maybe it's all true the stories I've heard,
Maybe it was you or maybe I'm to blame.
End: Can't you see how hard it's been for me?
I gotta let you go.
Oh baby let you go,
So that I'll be free.
So That I'll be free.
