Just Can’t Go Like That

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Like a fistful of the finest sand Love was hard to hold but it felt so grand As it slipped through both of our hands Now we're left with this goodbye The agreement was if you wanted out It's an even split and we had no doubt That if we crossed the T's and dotted all the I's There'd be no need to cry [Pre-Chorus] And in theory it was fine All the good times underlined This one yours and that one mine It was supposed to be so easy Now I know our deal is done But as my first act as the one you leave alonе I have to let you know [Chorus] That I just can't go like that Just can't go likе that And I won't let go like that If I have to let go I just can't go like that Just can't go like that And I won't let go like that If I have to let go [Verse 2] As I recall we made a deal The less we say the less we feel And the less we'd hurt, the quicker we heal It added up so easily then But we would swear to anything That choked the song of sorrow And we'd sing "Hurry up tomorrow" Like it was whiskey for the pain [Pre-Chorus] And theory it was fine All the good times underlined This one yours and that one mine It was supposed to be so easy I promised all my corners Would be neatly tucked and folded But I never said that my heart Would never show [Chorus] 'Cause I just can't go like that I just can't go like that And I won't let go like that If I have to let go I just can't go like that Just can't go like that And I won't let go like that If I have to let go [Pre-Chorus] And in theory it was fine All the good times underlined This one yours, that one mine It was supposed to be so easy Maybe you're just hiding Then again, you always did have So much more Control [Chorus] But I just can't go like that Just can't go like that And I won't let go like that If I have to let go Just can't go like that Just can't go like that And I won't let go like that If I have to let go [Outro] Mmm I just can't let go
