Lyrics

I held you like you were my link to heaven
God, I love you so
The moon and stars I could see forever
You're my angel on earth, you know
How could you let me go?
Can I really dream of far-off limits
Could I feel that much alone?
To fool myself with all that beauty
Will I ever seem to know?
How could you let me go?
How could you let me go?
Maybe I'm just having a bad dream
I would've staked my life, cross my heart, hope to die, you're the one
It never dawned on me, the possibility you'd be gone
Baby I'm so wild and crazy
Crazy 'bout you
It was as if my breath depended
On you as I'd wait for your call
You were birthdays and Christmas, all and forever
Each time that you'd come through my door
How could you let me go?
How could you let me go?
Maybe I'm just having a bad dream
I couldn't believe it when you told me that you're not the one
Not the one
Baby I'm so wild and crazy about you
Could I really dream of far-off limits
Could I feel that much alone?
To fool myself with all that beauty
Will I ever seem to know?
How could you let me go?
How could you let me go?
How could you let me go?
How could you let me go?
How could you let me go?
How could you let me go?
How could you let me go?
How could you let me go? (How could you let me go?)
