Sondre Lerche - I Cannot Let You Go lyrics

We're sleight of hand And force of will Closets full of outsized shoes to fill I better be A gifted kid To undo some of the deeds you did And one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight You're gonna be alone gonna be alone it's gonna be late Forgive you anything Try to shake it but it just won't do And it's all coming back to me now So we'll pretend I'll make up something new You can push me away but I cannot let you go I cannot 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 laws But you defy all sense at any cost And one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight You're gonna be alone gonna be alone it's gonna be late Forgive you anything Try to shake it but it just won't do And it's all coming back to me now So we'll pretend I'll make up something new But there's 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 I cannot let you go I cannot let you go I cannot let you go And one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight You're gonna be alone gonna be alone gonna be late Forgive you anything Try to shake it but it just won't do And it's all coming back to me now So let's pretend to make up something new But there's no getting back to the start I'll be a father you can be a son Till I can't even tell us apart Try to shake it but the deal is done You can push me away but I cannot let you go I cannot let you go Try as I may I know I cannot let you go I cannot let you go I cannot let you go I cannot let you go I cannot let you go I cannot let you go
