Jeffrey Steele - I Can't Stop You lyrics

rate me

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
