She Can't Let Go

When I talk to her, I know she doesn't hear me

She seems to be a million miles away

When the lights start to dim

She'll be thinking of him

She loves him so

She can't let go

It's been long enough for her to just forget him

But still she sees his face in ev'ry crowd

She walks out of the room

When they're playing that tune

That's how I know

She can't let go

She can't let go, though she knows it's really over

She can't let go, though she knows he's really gone

And I can't compete with a rose colored memory

A memory that lingers on and on

I've tried ev'rything, but know there's only waiting

For the last dying embers to fade

Oh, she wants to be free

But when she's holding me

That's when I know

She can't let go

I love her so

But she can't let go
