(Go . . . go . . . go)



Oh, let me go

Let me go

Let me go, lover

Let me be

Set me free

From your spell

BR

BRYou made me weep

BRCut me deep

BRI can't sleep, lover

BRI was cursed

BRFrom the first

BRDay I fell

BR

BRYou don't want me

BRBut you want me

BRTo go on wanting you

BRNow I pray that

BRYou will say that

BRWe're through

BR

BRPlease turn me loose

BRWhat's the use?

BRLet me go, lover

BRLet me go

BRLet me go

BRLet me go

BR

BRYou made me weep

BRCut me deep

BRI can't sleep, lover

BRI was cursed

BRFrom the first

BRDay I fell

BR

BRYou don't want me

BRBut you want me

BRTo go on wanting you

BRNow I pray that

BRYou will say that

BRWe're through

BR

BRPlease turn me loose

BRWhat's the use?

BRLet me go, lover

BRLet me go

BRLet me go

BRLet me go
