Alice (letting Go) Lyrics

When you told me that you loved me I had no reason to doubt it so I went about my life in such a selfish way and never really thought about it. Oh do I have to let go? Oh I had my chance and I've blown it, cos I loved you so much all these years and somewhere in myself, between my pride and fear just couldn't find a way to show it.

I know it doesn't give you joy to give me such pain but you're in love with him now, my old friend - I know all about that, there's no need to explain but why do I have to say goodbye when I love you still, and can only feel that I'm dying. Still every word I say just seem to come out wrong and none of them deny the face that you are gone and that I'm left here, crying.

What's the good of songs anyway they're just exercises in solitude. I should have been ready for today - I always prayed you wouldn't go, but I always knew you would.
I suppose you say to him now "I know that some day you'll leave me" just like you did to me, and I deny it, but you wouldn't believe me. Ooh do I have to let go of you ooh I don't think that I can do it - you're always going to be the guardian of my soul, and I'll always have a part of you to call my own, how stupid that I never proved it.

Oh I know I'll never let go oh because I don't want to be just your friend. We spent seven years together in our own way, I can't believe the story ends like this today...

Wherever you are do you really think so, Alice
