I Can't Stop You Lyrics - Singles - Jeffery Steele

Up all night, pen to paper 

Four page letter, should've known better 

Than to think you would read it 

Guess I wanted you to know 

I didn't want to let you go 

Been dreadin' this day since the day you told me 

That director called, said he liked your pictures 

And he wanted to meet you 

I died the day I said to you 

You gotta do whatcha gotta do 

CHORUS 

I can't stop you 

You're a wheel already rollin' 

I can't keep you 

You're a bird on a wing, you're about to fly 

I can't hold you 

You were never mine to hold 

Guess I gotta let you go, let you go, let you go 

Heaven knows I don't wanna let you go 

But I can't stop you 

Rubber to road, pedal to metal 

Couldn't care less, halfway to memphis 

When the blue lights slowed me down 

State trooper said ninety-one 

Who the hell you chasin' son 

I told him all about your angel face 

Your green-eyed dreams, your head-strong ways 

He took my license and ran my plates 

I counted eighty-four trucks go by 

And on that Shoulder I began to cry 

CHORUS 

It finally hit me you were gone 

Just outside Jackson on the drive back home 

CHORUS
