Lyrics
0:26With sleight of hand and force of will
0:32Closets full of odd-sized shoes to fill
0:39I better be a gifted kid
0:46To undo some of the deeds you did
0:51In 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
0:58You're gonna be alone gonna be alone it's gonna be late
1:04Forgive you anything
1:06I try to shake it but it just won't do
1:10And it's all coming back to me now
1:12So we'll pretend or make up something new
1:16You can push me away but I cannot let you go (let you go)
1:22I cannot let you go (let you go)
1:26I cannot let you go
1:38The rubber band is wearing thin
1:45Bursting as reality kicks in
1:51All hope should be at long last lost
1:58But you'll defy all sense at any cost
2:03In 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
2:10You're gonna be alone gonna be alone it's gona be late
2:16Forgive you anything
2:18I try to shake it but it just won't do
2:22And it's all coming back to me now
2:24So let's pretend or make up something new
2:29But theres no getting back to the start
2:31I try to shake it but it just won't do
2:36You can push me away but I cannot let you go (let you go)
2:41I cannot let you go (let you go)
2:45I cannot let you go I cannot let you go
2:52In 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
3:24You're gonna be alone gonna be alone it's gonna be late
3:29Forgive you anything
3:32I try to shake it but it just won't do
3:36And it's all coming back to me now
3:38So let's pretend or make up something new
3:43But there's no getting back to the start
3:45I'll be a father you can be the son
3:49Till I can't even tell us apart
3:52I tried to shake it but the deal is done
3:56You can push me away but I cannot let you go (let you go)
4:01I cannot let you go (let you go)
4:06Try as I may I know I cannot let you go (let you go)
4:13I cannot let you go
With sleight of hand and force of will Closets full of odd-sized shoes to fill I better be a gifted kid To undo some of the deeds you did In 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 You're gonna be alone gonna be alone it's gonna be late Forgive you anything I try to shake it but it just won't do And it's all coming back to me now So we'll pretend or make up something new You can push me away but I cannot let you go (let you go) I cannot let you go (let you go) I cannot let you go The rubber band is wearing thin Bursting as reality kicks in All hope should be at long last lost But you'll defy all sense at any cost In 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 You're gonna be alone gonna be alone it's gona be late Forgive you anything I try to shake it but it just won't do And it's all coming back to me now So let's pretend or make up something new But theres no getting back to the start I try to shake it but it just won't do You can push me away but I cannot let you go (let you go) I cannot let you go (let you go) I cannot let you go I cannot let you go In 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 You're gonna be alone gonna be alone it's gonna be late Forgive you anything I try to shake it but it just won't do And it's all coming back to me now So let's pretend or make up something new But there's no getting back to the start I'll be a father you can be the son Till I can't even tell us apart I tried to shake it but the deal is done You can push me away but I cannot let you go (let you go) I cannot let you go (let you go) Try as I may I know I cannot let you go (let you go) I cannot let you go
