Let me go

This affair is finished - dead

I tried giving you the velvet gloves

I tried giving you the knockout punch

Let me go

Let me go

Let me go

Let me go

With a smile, don't you?

You'll never find that perfect love

That you read about

That you dream about

Maybe I'll become a playboy

Hang around in gay bars

And move to the west side of town

Let me go

So you think I'm giving you the brush off

Well I'm just telling you to shove off

This ain't no time to waste my breath

We're going into sudden death

This affair is dead as a doornail

Hey, baby won't you let me go

The bell has rung, and I've called time

The chair is on the table, out the door baby

Baby won't you let me go

Let me go...
