Can't Let Go

In a world where being sensible
 means holding back,
 how am I suppose to
 say what's on my mind?
 In a world that taught me
 how to say what's in my heart,
 why am I suppose to
 keep it to myself?
 In a world where being honest
 always has it's price
 how much do I pay,
 and where do I sign?
 And when the curtain falls too soon,
 alone inside an empty room,
 I'll still be waiting there
 for you...
 The longer that it takes to say good-bye,
 The stronger the fire will burn inside
 But I,... I can't let go
 In a world where getting hurt
 is just another fact of life,
 where am I suppose to go
 to dry my tears?
 In a world where common sense tells me
 to turn the page,
 why do I find it so hard
 to walk away?
 And when the curtain falls too soon,
 alone inside an empty room,
 I'll still be waiting there
 for you...
 And when the camera fades to gray,
 and you've said all you've had to say,
 there's still the memory of your face
 The longer that it takes to say good-bye,
 The stronger the fire will burn inside
 But I,... I can't let go
