(Go . . . go . . . go)
|
|
Oh, let me go
|
Let me go
|
Let me go, lover
|
Let me be
|
Set me free
|
>From your spell
|
|
You made me weep
|
Cut me deep
|
I can't sleep, lover
|
I was cursed
|
>From the first
|
Day I fell
|
|
You don't want me
|
But you want me
|
To go on wanting you
|
Now I pray that
|
You will say that
|
We're through
|
|
Please turn me loose
|
What's the use?
|
Let me go, lover
|
Let me go
|
Let me go
|
Let me go
|
|
You made me weep
|
Cut me deep
|
I can't sleep, lover
|
I was cursed
|
>From the first
|
Day I fell
|
|
You don't want me
|
But you want me
|
To go on wanting you
|
Now I pray that
|
You will say that
|
We're through
|
|
Please turn me loose
|
What's the use?
|
Let me go, lover
|
Let me go
|
Let me go
|
Let me go
|
|
