Lyrics
I Just Can't Let Her Go
Words & Music: Jeff Horn
(c) Jeff Horn
It's the same thing over and over since the day she and I went separate ways;
I pick up most of the pieces and then her name comes up again.
There's a sadness I find when she crosses my mind,
And that long train of "what ifs" starts to roll.
I Just Can't Let Her Go,
I Just Can't Let Her Go
Saying goodbye was an angry scene; ugly words we didn't mean.
How'd the best shot at happiness I ever had wind up that bad?
'Cause there were other nights when the feeling was so right,
She'd look in my eyes and call my name soft and low.
I Just Can't Let Her Go,
I Just Can't Let Her Go
She was special I knew that from the start
Time will never take her from a place inside my heart
Lately, I do OK. I'm educated by mistakes
Thank God time heals you as it moves along, the hurtin's mostly gone.
Though every once in a while I remember her smile
And miss her more than she'll ever know.
I Just Can't Let Her Go, oh no
I Just Can't Let Her Go
