I've got to tell you. I want to tell you I've got to tell you
I've
got to tell you that it's time to let you know I want to tell you that
you've got to let it go (2X)
I'm believin' too much in all the stuff in
my head It's a hassle in the mornin' to get up outta bed I'm holdin' on
to secrets that are too hard to see An' I'm thinking everybody is a-better
than me I try to keep doing what I think I gotta do If I make a mistake
you're gonna think I'm a fool I'm always back again to the point where I
began I'm afraid I need help - don't offer your hand I know, you know,
they know, we know I don't know nuthin' but I gotta keep bluffin' I'm
thinking, they're thinking, you're thinking I'll drink Feelin' so confused
that I think I wanna sink It's so hard to talk when you're walking in shock
It's so hard to see when you're pretending you're free Don't know how
to give, and I've had all I can take Everybody's to blame, when you can't
play the game
I've been namin' and a-gamin' and a-framin' and a-blamin'
It's a pattern I've been weaving for a long long time It's hard to
begin, but surrender means win And it certainly is better than losing your
mind I know that you've been thinking I've been talkin' 'bout me I made
it that way, For a purpose you see Scatman's really only tryin' to get
through To help you discover - he be talkin' 'bout you The things that
hold me back are right here in my head The sabateur, can't endure, he has
to go to bed I want to live life in spite of what I think I think that
my opinion should be thrown to the sink I wanna do better, but I don't know
how But if I'm gonna start I better start right now I try to survive
and I've gotta let you know If I want to live at all I gotta gotta let go
