can't let go

well don't you know,
that's just the way the story goes,
just so you know,
my body aches for your embrace,
I hope you know,
we’ll always need each other so,
don't you know, you can't let go...

well don’t you know,
we’re barefoot down a gravel road,
and don't you know,
our hearts stay warm despite the cold,
so now we know,
love endures as we grow old,
so don’t you know, you can't let go...
