Story Behind The Song
I woke up one night with a melody in my head and I got up and wrote this song in ten minutes. I did not change a thing after it was written, which is not strange for me.

Lyrics
LET IT GO
WORDS AND MUSIC:
MONTE R. THOMAS
VERSE:
IT SAYS TWO A.M. ON THE CLOCK
I'M SPINNING AROUND THE FM DIAL
LOOKING FOR A PLACE TO STOP
I HEAR A SONG FROM LONG AGO
MY MEMORY'S CALLING ME
SO I GO AHEAD AND GO
BACK IN TIME. I FIND HER FACE
A PICTURE IN MY MIND, I CANNOT ERASE
CHORUS:
I CAN'T LET IT GO, WHILE SHE'S STILL THERE
AS FAR AS I KNOW,SHE'LL NEVER DISAPPEAR..
I'M HOLDING ON WITH MY HEART, BUT I HOPE
SOME DAY SOON, I WILL LET IT GO
VERSE:
I FALL ASLEEP ON THE COUCH
THE NIGHT THAT SHE LEFT ME
IS ALL I DREAM ABOUT
HARD AS I TRY, I CAN'T FORGET
I GUESS SHE'LL KEEP ON HAUNTING ME
IF SHE STAYS IN MY HEAD
REPEAT CHORUS
