Burn

Original

I don't understand why

See it's burning me to hold onto this

I know this is something I gotta do

But that don't mean I want to

What I'm trying to say is that I... love you, I just

I feel like this is coming to an end

And its better for me to

Let it go now than hold on and hurt you

I gotta let it burn

It's gonna burn for me to say this

But it's comin' from my heart

It's been a long time coming

But we done been fell apart

Really wanna work this out

But I don't think you're gonna change

I do but you don't think it's best we go our separate ways

Tell me why I should stay in this relationship

When I'm hurting baby, I ain't happy baby

Plus there's so many other things I gotta deal with

I think that you should let it burn

When the feeling ain't the same and your body don't want to

But you know gotta let it go 'cause the party ain't

Jumpin' like it used to even though this might bruise you

Let it burn

Let it burn, gotta let it burn

Deep down you know it's best for yourself but you

Hate the thought of her being with someone else

But you know that it's over, we knew it was through

Let it burn

Let it burn, gotta let it burn

Sendin' pages I ain't supposed to

Got somebody here, but I want you

'Cause the feelin ain't the same

Find myself callin' her your name

Ladies, tell me do you understand?

Now all my fellas, do you feel my pain?

It's the way I feel

I know I made a mistake, now it's too late

I know she ain't comin' back

What I gotta do now to get my shorty back?

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh...

Man I don't know what I'm gonna do without my boo

You've been gone for too long

It's been fifty-leven days, umpteen hours

I'ma be burnin' 'til you return (Let it burn)

When the feeling ain't the same and your body don't want to

But you know gotta let it go 'cause the party ain't

Jumpin' like it used to, even though this might bruise you

Let it burn (Let it burn, you gon' learn)

Let it burn, gotta let it burn

Deep down you know it's best for yourself but you

Hate the thought of her being with someone else

But you know that it's over, we knew it was through

Let it burn

Let it burn, gotta let it burn

I'm twisted 'cause one side of me is tellin' me

That I need to move on

On the other side I wanna break down and cry (Ooh)

I'm twisted 'cause one side of me is tellin' me

That I need to move on

On the other side I wanna break down and cry (Yeah)

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, oooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh (Can ya feel me burnin'?)

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

So many days, so many hours

I'm still burnin' 'til you return (Let it burn)

When the feeling ain't the same and your body don't want to

But you know gotta let it go 'cause the party ain't

Jumpin' like it used to even though this might bruise you

Let it burn (Let it burn)

Let it burn, gotta let it burn

Deep down you know it's best for yourself but you

Hate the thought of her being with someone else

But you know that it's over we knew it was through

Let it burn

Let it burn, gotta let it burn
