Trapped in a love for years
And now I think I've found the real thing
And when I think about your tears
And all the joy that true love can bring

What can I do?
I gotta find a way to tell you
What can I say?
'Cause I don't want to break your heart

Let her go and start over
There ain't nothing that you can do
Let her go and start over
Baby, it's up to you

Let her go and start over
There ain't nothing that you can say
Let her go and start over, yeah

And how can I tell you, baby
After all the good times we've seen
I know I gotta leave but maybe
You think I'm just trying to be mean

What can I do
Now I know I love another?
What can I say?
It hurts you when I say I love her

What can I do?
To be fair to me
To be fair to you
My friends tell me

Let her go and start over
There ain't nothing that you can do
Let her go and start over
Baby, it's up to you

Let her go and start over
There ain't nothing that you can say
Let her go and start over, yeah

And what can I do?
I gotta find a way to tell you
What can I say?
'Cause I don't want to break your heart that way

What can I do?
To be fair to me
To be fair to you
My friends tell me

Let her go and start over
There ain't nothing that you can do
And let her go and start over
Baby, it's up to you

Let her go and start over
There ain't nothing that you can say
(Let her go and start over)
Don't ever stand in the way

(Let her go and start over)
Let her go, let her go, let her go
Let her go and start over
(Let her go and start over)
There ain't nothing, there ain't you can do

(Let her go and start over)
Let her go, let her go, let her go
Let her go and start over
(Let her go and start over)
(Let her go and start over)
