Oh love, would you kindly just please let me let you go
Aren't I such a fool now for letting you get this close
And I'll tell myself that in time, it won't be this bad
She had looks that could kill and sometimes now I wish they had

Don't hold me close now babe, just walk away
I'd love if I could hate for you to stay
I'm too old for this, and you're over it
Just tell me you're not sure
You'd only break the heart of me
By telling me I'm yours

So I'll take my leave and I'll keep you just as you are
Before it's too sour or too stale and someone gets hurt
And I'll do my best to forget her while I still can
She had eyes you could die for and inside I surely have

Don't hold me close now babe, just walk away
I'd love if I could hate for you to stay
I'm too old for this, and you're over it
Just tell me you're not sure
You'd only break the heart of me
By telling me I'm yours

Don't hold me close now babe, just walk away
I'd love if I could hate for you to stay
I'm too old for this, and you're over it
Just tell me you're not sure
You'd only break the heart of me
By telling me I'm yours

She had looks that could kill and sometimes now I wish they had
