Lyrics

[Verse 1]

I know it's time for a change

Mmm but when that change comes

Will it still feel the same?

[Verse 2]

How many times have I tried to turn this love around

I don't wanna give up

But baby it's time I had two feet on the ground

Can you release me?

Can you release me?

Now that you're gone I can't help myself from wonderin'

Oh if you'd have come down from your high

Would we've been alright?

Release me

Can you release me?

[Verse 3]

Come on baby, come on baby

You knew it was time to just let go

'Cause we want to be free

Somehow it's just not that easy

Come on darlin', hear me darlin'

'Cause you're a waste of time for me

I'm trying to make you see

That baby you've just got to release me

Release me

Release me

I'm not goin' back to you anymore

Finally my weakened heart is healing though very slow

So stop comin' around my door

'Cause you're not gonna find what you're looking for

[Verse 4]

Whoa-oh-whoa

Come on baby, come on baby

You knew it was time to just let go

'Cause we want to be free

But somehow it's just not that easy

Oh, oh, oh baby

Come on darlin', now hear me darlin'

'Cause you're a waste of time for me

I'm trying to make you see

That baby you've just got to release me

[Verse 5]

(Now tell me) What is this power you've got on me?

(What is this power?)

What is this power, oh?

(What is it, what is it?)

[Verse 6]

Come on baby, come on baby

You knew it was time to just let go

'Cause we want to be free

Somehow it's just not that easy

Ho-oh-oh, oh baby

Come on darlin', now hear me darlin'

'Cause you're a waste of time for me

I'm tryin' to make you see

That baby you've just got to release me

[Verse 7]

Release me

Release me

Release me

Will you release me?

[Verse 8]

Ah, release me

Release me

Will you release me?
