Let Me Go Lyrics - The House Rules - Christian Kane

They were sitting on his tailgate 

She was loving on his rough neck 

She was talking 'bout running away 

He was puffing on a cigarette 

Just thinking, "How am I gonna say goodbye?" 

He said, "Girl, you got it good here 

You don't need to mess with 

A guy going nowhere" 

She said, "How's about Texas?" 

He got up and shook his head, then he said 

"Ain't you been listening? 

It's never gonna work out 

And I think it'd be a good time now" 

"To let me go, you don't need me, baby 

Stop holding on the way you are 

Don't you know I'm no good for you? 

And it'll only break your heart if you don't let me go" 

He said, "Other than a dreamer 

I ain't nothing but a drifter 

And you could do a lot better" 

He leaned over and he kissed her 

He said, "You got another year of college 

And a good mama and a daddy 

And me I got 93 dollars 

And this old 82 Chevy" 

"So let me go, you don't need me, baby 

'Cause I'm holding on the way you are 

Don't you know I'm no good for you? 

And it'll only break your heart if you don't let me go" 

She said, "Nice try but you can't hide 

Behind those shades there on your face 

You see I don't think you're all that tough 

I just think you're scared of love 

And I think I won't take up that much space" 

"So let me go, take me with you, baby 

I belong where you are 

We both know that you're not as strong 

As you think you are" 

"Let me go, take me with you, baby 

Well, I belong where you are 

Don't you know I'm so good for you 

And it'll only break your heart 

Way down the road if you go?" 

"Let me go with you, baby 

Let me go with you, baby 

Just let me go, yeah 

Let me go"
