INTRO


We often fool ourselves and say that it's love only
'Cause when it's gone, we end up being lonely


REFRAIN 1
So how are we to know
That it just isn't so
That we just have to let each other go


There were many times when we shared precious moments
But later realized they were only stolen moments


[Repeat REFRAIN 1]


CHORUS
If loving you is all that means to me
When being happy is all I hope you'd be
Then loving you must mean I really have to set you free


Each day we meet my love for you keeps growing stronger
But every time we meet makes leaving you so much harder


REFRAIN 2
So how are we to know
That this just wasn't so
That we just have to let each other go
Ooh ooh


[Repeat CHORUS]


BRIDGE
Letting go is not an easy task
When smiling feels like I must wear this lonely mask
It hurts deep inside and I just cannot hide
If there's anguish at the thought that we should have to part


CHORUS
If loving you is all that means to me
When being happy is all I hope you'd be, yeah
Then loving you must mean I really have to set you free

Loving you is all that means to me
Being happy is all I hope you'd be
Loving you must mean I really have to set you free
