I want you back within my heart
Lettin' go was the hardest part
Oh take me back into your heart
Lettin' go was the hardest part
Possessive love can never be right
And I found out the other night
You never gave me a reason to doubt
I was afraid when you walked out
I should've held back
But I felt my pride
Was welling up inside me
And now you're gone
I held too tight and you went away
Come back to my heart
Letting go was the hardest part
I'd give my all just to hear you say
Take me back to your heart
Letting go was the hardest part
Two hearts are better
When they stay free
That's what you always said to me
Don't try to own or you will destroy
That very thing that brought you joy
My fantasy made a fool out of me
I always thought I was so strong
And now you're gone
I think I finally understand
I let the reins slip through my hand
I held too tight
A caged bird always wants to fly
Letting go was the hardest part
