 | [Spoken]:
I don't understand why.
See, it's burning me to hold onto this.
I know this is something I've gotta do,
but that don't mean I want to.
What I'm trying to say is that I love you,
I just-I feel like it's coming to an end.
And it's better for me to let it go now
than to hold on and hurt you.
I've gotta let it burn.
[Sang]:
It's gonna burn for me to say this,
but it's coming from my heart.
It's been a long time coming,
but we've done bent and fell apart.
I really wanna work this out,
but I don't think you're gonna change,
and I do, but you don't.
Think it's best we go our seperate ways.
Tell me why I should stay in this relationship
when I'm hurting, baby.
I ain't happy, baby.
Plus, there's so many other things I've gotta deal with.
I think that you should let it burn.
When the feeling ain't the same,
and your body don't want you to know,
gotta let it go, 'cause the party ain't jumping like it used to.
Even though this might bruise you, let it burn.
Let it burn.
Gotta let it burn.
Deep down, you know it's best for yourself,
but you hate the thought of her being with someone else,
but you know that it's over.
You know that it's through.
Let it burn.
Let it burn.
Sending pages I ain't supposed to.
Got somebody here, but I want you,
'cause the feeling ain't the same.
I find myself calling her your name.
Ladies, tell me, do you understand?
Now, all my fellas, do you feel my pain?
It's the way I feel.
I know I made a mistake.
Now, it's too late, and I know she ain't coming back.
What I gotta do now to get my shorty back?
Man, I don't know what I'm gonna do without my boo.
She's been gone for too long.
It's been fifty-leven days, ump-teen hours.
I'mma be burning 'till she return.
When the feeling ain't the same,
and your body don't want you to know,
gotta let it go, 'cause the party ain't jumping like it used to.
Even though this might bruise you, let it burn.
Let it burn.
Ooh.
Deep down, you know it's best for yourself,
but you hate the thought of her being with someone else,
but you know that it's over.
You know that it's through.
Let it burn.
Let it burn.
Gotta let it burn.
I'm twisted, 'cause one side of me is telling me that I need to move on.
On the other side, I wanna break down and cry.
Ooh.
I'm twisted, 'cause one side of me is telling me that I need to move on.
On the other side, I wanna break down and cry.
Can you feel me burning?
So many days.
So many hours.
I'm still burning 'till you return.
When the feeling ain't the same,
and your body don't want you to know,
gotta let it go, 'cause the party ain't jumping like it used to.
Even though this might bruise you, let it burn.
Let it burn.
Ooh.
Deep down, you know it's best for yourself,
but you hate the thought of her being with someone else,
but you know that it's over.
You know that it's through.
Let it burn.
Let it burn.
Gotta let it burn.
