Let Go (Cheap Trick)

I took your photographs

I threw them in the trash

Took all your old things, too

And burned it all to ash

Do you still wanna ask

For yet another chance?

There's something that you won't ever let go

Something you can never let go

You made so many oaths

Too many promises

But came up penniless

And now you're just a ghost

But you said you'd bring a dime

And I believed you every time

Well there's something that you can never let go

Something you should never let show

Something I've already let go

(chorus)

Let go, let go

Can't you see I've moved on?

Let go, let go

You're no good to me now

I'd rather spend life alone

Than be with you and feel another spark

Now you gotta let go

Of my heart

I took your photographs

I threw them to the side

Took all your so-called friends

to our old spot outside

I kissed them all goodbye

To get you off of my mind.

(added verse)

You took my dignity

All my precious pride

And I had an epiphany

'Bout what's wrong with life

And you still wonder why

I hide when you're nearby.

There's something you can never let go

There's something I shouldn't ever let show

Something I should've let go

(chorus)

Let go, let go

Can't you see I've moved on?

Let go, let go

You're no good for me now

I'd rather spend life alone

Than be with you and feel another spark

So you gotta let go

of my heart

(instrumental section)

There's something that you won't ever let go

Something you should never let show

Something you'll never let go

(added, final verses)

I took your photographs

Threw them all in a box

Blocked you on every app

Cause you won't leave my thoughts

You've got me all tied up

Was torture what you sought?

You stole my friends away

Took my sanity, too

But I guess that's just an average day

A normal evening for you

After all you put me through,

you think I'll forgive you?

(brief instrumental/build up; in the original song, this is the bridge between the 2nd and 3rd chorus)

Something you can never let go

Something you shouldn't ever let show

Something I didn't let go

Something I couldn't let go

(chorus)

Let go, let go

Can't you see I've moved on?

Let go, let go

You're no good for me now

I'd rather spend life alone

Than be with you and feel another spark

Now you gotta let go

Let go, let go

Can't you see I've moved on?

Let go, let go

You're no good for me now

I'd rather spend life alone

Than be with you and feel another spark

Now, just gotta let go

Gotta let go

Gotta let go

Gotta let go

Of your heart.
