|
Why won't you let me be |
|
Well you told me that you wanted me |
|
To be the one |
|
But all you ever wanted |
|
Was to have some fun |
|
You cheated and you lied |
|
I hope you're satisfied |
|
Oh why won't you let me be |
|
Well I try to walk away |
|
But every time I do |
|
You tell me that you're sorry |
|
And that you'll be true |
|
I take you back and then |
|
You lie to me again |
|
Oh why won't you let me be |
|
(Why don't you set me free) |
|
Oh baby, baby, why |
|
(Why don't you let me be) |
|
Baby, baby, why |
|
(Now all want to know) |
|
Why won't you let me go |
|
I guess that I will always be |
|
In love with you |
|
And yet I know that you're the kind |
|
That can't be true |
|
So let me go my way |
|
Don't try and make me stay |
|
Oh please, won't you let me be |
|
Why don't you let me be |
|
(Why don't you set me free) |
|
Oh baby, baby, why |
|
(Why don't you let me be) |
|
Baby, baby, why |
|
(Now all want to know) |
|
Why won't you let me go |
|
(Ad lib) |
|
Why won't you let me be |
