But I Can't Let You Go
Unbreakable Bonds: Navigating Love's Bittersweet Farewell
Lyrics
I can say that we are through
I can declare the end of our relationship
And I will almost mean it
My declaration is sincere, but not absolute
But simple words just can't undo
Simple words cannot erase the strong connection between us
All the ties between us
There are significant bonds that exist between us
Part of me will hang on
A part of me will remain attached even after you leave
Long after your gone
Emotional remnants will persist long after your departure
Though it's the right thing for you I know
Despite being the right decision for you, it's emotionally challenging for me
I can watch you leave
I can witness your departure
But I can't let you go
I cannot emotionally detach or release you completely
I will be your friend
I am willing to be a supportive friend
I will dry your tears
I will offer comfort during your moments of sadness
Though I won't be the one you give your love to
Even though I won't be the recipient of your love
Through the years
Over the years
And I will do my best
I will make an effort to hide my true feelings
Not to let you know
Suppressing my emotions to avoid revealing my struggle
That I can watch you leave
I can witness your departure
But I can't let you go
I cannot emotionally detach or release you completely
I will smile and say I'm fine
I will pretend to be fine and put on a smile
Anytime you ask me
Regardless of how you inquire about my well-being
I wish for you a love like mine
My wish for you is to find a love similar to mine
But one that makes you happy
As long as it brings you happiness
You'll always own every part
You will always have a place in my wounded heart
Of this broken heart
Every part of my heart belongs to you
Though I would die before I'd let it show
I would rather suffer silently than reveal my pain
I can watch you leave (I can watch you leave)
I can witness your departure (repeated)
But I can't let you go
I cannot emotionally detach or release you completely (repeated)
I will be your friend
I am willing to be a supportive friend
And I will dry your tears
I will offer comfort during your moments of sadness
Though I won't be the one you give your love to
Even though I won't be the recipient of your love
Through the years
Over the years
And I will do my best
I will make an effort to hide my true feelings
Not to let you know
Suppressing my emotions to avoid revealing my struggle
That I can watch you leave
I can witness your departure
But I can't let you go
I cannot emotionally detach or release you completely
And I will do my best
I will make an effort to hide my true feelings
Not to let you know
Suppressing my emotions to avoid revealing my struggle
That I can watch you leave
I can witness your departure
(I can watch you leave)
I cannot emotionally detach or release you completely (repeated)
But I can't let you go
-(Can't let you, can't let you, can't let you go)
-Can't let you go
