I've gone hungry I've gone blind
I've had nights where you're the only thing that's on my mind
I've given you all I know
So why
Why the hell should I let you go

I've sacrificed and I've forgiven
I've had nights where I thought you're the only reason I'm living
You're already all I know
So why
Why the hell should I let you go

They say love is where the heart is
But does it have to be the hardest
I don't know what my favorite part is
When all I've done is only start it

They say if you love them let them go
But since you never loved me back I'm gonna keep you close
So why
Why the hell should I let you go

(Why) Why the hell should I let you go
(Why) Why the hell should I let you go
(Why) Why the hell should I let you go
(Why) Why the hell should I let you go

(Why) Why the hell should I let you go
Since you never loved me back
I'm gonna keep you close
So why
Why the hell should I let you go

They say love is what you make it
There's not something to replace it
Soon I'll find out what heartbreak is
Cause it's not even love I'm chasin'

They say if you love them let them go
But since you never loved me back I'm gonna keep you close
So why
Why
Why
Oh tell me why
So why
Why the hell should I let you go
