Smash Cast - I can't let go (smash cast version) lyrics

They say nothing lasts forever Well, I wish that that were true 'Cause this aching in my heart won't go away They sing, "Ev'rything must change" They say that time will see you through Well I've listened and I've waited for that day But I wake up with this anger And the pain won't let me be And the smile I share Is only there for show If I hang on to this heartache Then my soul will not be free So I keep trying But I just cannot let go I can't let go Oh, I need it to remind me I can't let go Oh, I just repeat the past And though your arms are saying yes I feel my heart keeps saying no I want to love you But I can't let go I had to live through bad beginnings And I've seen unhappy ends So I close the book Before the story starts I'm just a witness to my lifetime And I'm a stranger to my friends I'm a trafficker Of broke and damaged hearts Now, you ask me to start over But it's easier said than done And the memories are strong when they arise And when heartache comes a-callin' I don't even try to run 'Cause it's all that makes me know that I'm alive I can't let go Oh, I need it to remind me I can't let go Oh, I just repeat the past And though your arms are saying yes I feel my heart keeps saying no I want to love you I want to love you I want to love you But I can't let go No, I can't let go Won't you help me? Help me to let go
