Lyrics

[Verse 1] Sweetie Little Jean, where did you go? Everyone's been searching high and low And your mother's worried sick Dearest daddy's lost his grip While the whole world's watching Candlelight vigils being held in silence On the channel four And they've knocked on every door Every place you've been before [Refrain] How long will we let it go? I think we should just let go [Chorus] I, I want you back Let's get back Lay my weary head against your bones Where all my troubles will be dead and gone [Refrain] How long will we let it go? I think we should just let go [Verse 2] Has melancholy taken you for good? You know that I would save you if I could Watched your laughter turn to tears Then you vanished in thin air Well we pinned your missing persons picture up On every mother-loving post How's it feel to be a ghost? You're the one I love the most [Chorus 2] I, I want you back Let's get back Lay my weary head against your breast Where all our troubles will be laid to rest [Verse 3] I pushed and I pulled 'til I pushed you aside Now all that is left are the tears that you cried I'm sorry love for all of the damage done My only hope is someday to be back beside you [Chorus] I, I want you back Let's get back Lay my weary head against your bones Where all our troubles will be dead and gone [Refrain] How long will we let it go? I think we should just let go
