Analysis of I cant let go

I cant let go 2003 (Orange farm)



After all these years I can't seem to get you out of my mind. I can still smell your scent. I tried to get rid of the flavour of your kisses, I tried getting rid of our memories by getting into another relationship and I ended up suffering so much.

No matter how much I wished and hope to replace you I couldn't. Even after your love nearly killed me and there was nothing to do but leave. But still my heart yearns for you.

I loved you during your happy and sorrowful days but still that didn't stop you from loving me so poorly. I watched myself slowly die hoping that you would change.

After all these years you still the one I want,but there is no way I'm going to let you back into my life so that you can always choose the other woman.

I tried getting rid of the flavour of your kisses,I tried getting rid of our memories but I failed instead I suffered so much.
