Scatman John - Let It Go lyrics

rate me

I've got to tell you. I want to tell you

I've got to tell you

I've got to tell you that it's time to let you know

I want to tell you that you've got to let it go (2X)

I'm believin' too much in all the stuff in my head

It's a hassle in the mornin' to get up outta bed

I'm holdin' on to secrets that are too hard to see

An' I'm thinking everybody is a-better than me

I try to keep doing what I think I gotta do

If I make a mistake you're gonna think I'm a fool

I'm always back again to the point where I began

I'm afraid I need help - don't offer your hand

I know, you know, they know, we know

I don't know nuthin' but I gotta keep bluffin'

I'm thinking, they're thinking, you're thinking I'll drink

Feelin' so confused that I think I wanna sink

It's so hard to talk when you're walking in shock

It's so hard to see when you're pretending you're free

Don't know how to give, and I've had all I can take

Everybody's to blame, when you can't play the game

I've been namin' and a-gamin' and a-framin' and a-blamin'

It's a pattern I've been weaving for a long long time

It's hard to begin, but surrender means win

And it certainly is better than losing your mind

I know that you've been thinking

I've been talkin' 'bout me I made it that way,

For a purpose you see

Scatman's really only tryin' to get through

To help you discover - he be talkin' 'bout you

The things that hold me back are right here in my head

The sabateur, can't endure, he has to go to bed

I want to live life in spite of what I think

I think that my opinion should be thrown to the sink

I wanna do better, but I don't know how

But if I'm gonna start I better start right now

I try to survive and I've gotta let you know

If I want to live at all I gotta gotta let go
