Lyrics for Song: You Won't Let Me Go
Lyrics for Album: Six Classic Albums [2011]
I want you, I need you, I'm all packed up to go
But darlin', if you love me, you won't let me go
If a love a true love, it never runs smooth you know
So if your love is a true love, you won't let me go
Well if you don't say you love me
I'm gonna walk right out the door
And I'll hope that you l stop me
So I can hear you call me darlin once more
I tell you I love you
Yes I love you with all my heart and soul
So darlin if you love me you wont let me go
[Incomprehensible] I love you now, I say I love you
Oh with all my heart and soul
So darlin' well if you love me
I know you won't let me go
Hey lady you won't let me go oh yeah
