What It Takes

There goes my old girlfriend
Well there's another diamond ring.
And all those late night promises
I guess they don't mean a thing.

So baby what's the story
Did you find another man?
Is it easy to sleep in the bed that we made?
When you don't look back I guess the feelings start to fadeaway.

I used to feel your fire
but now it's cold inside.
And you're back on the street
Like you didn't miss a beat, yeah.

Tell me what it takes to let you go.
Tell me how the pain's supposed to go.
Tell me how it is that you can sleep in the night
Without thinking you lost everything that was good
In your life to the toss of the dice.
Tell me what it takes to let you go.

Girl before I met you
I was F.I.N.E. fine.
But your love made me a prisoner
Yeah my heart's been doin' time.

Spent me up like money
Well then you hung me out to dry.
It was easy to keep all your lies in disguise
'cause you had me deep with the devil in your eyes.

Tell me what it takes to let you go.
Tell me how the pain's supposed to go.
Tell me how it is that you can sleep in the night
Without thinking you lost everything that was good
In your life to the toss of the dice.
Tell me what it takes to let you go. Gituar..

Tell me that you're happy that you're on your own.
Tell me that it's better when you're all alone.
Tell me that your body doesn't miss my touch.
Tell me that my lovin' didn't mean that much.
Tell me you ain't dyin' when you're cryin' for me.

Tell me what it takes to let you go.
Tell me how the pain's supposed to go.
Tell me how it is that you can sleep in the night
Without thinking you lost everything that was good
In your life to the toss of the dice.
Tell me who's to blame for thinking twice (no no no no)
'cause i don't wanna burn in paradise.

(let it go let it go ... )
