Burn

I don't understand why

See, it's burning me to hold onto this

I know this is something I gotta do

But that don't mean I want to

What I'm trying to say is that, I love you, I just

I feel like this is coming to an end

And it's better for me to

Let it go now than hold on and hurt you

I gotta let it burn

It's gonna burn for me to say this

But it's coming from my heart

It's been a long time coming

But we done been fell apart

Really wanna work this out

But I don't think you're gonna change

I do but you don't

Think it's best we go our separate ways

Tell me why I should stay in this relationship

When I'm hurting, baby, I ain't happy, baby

Plus there's so many other things I gotta deal with

I think that you should let it burn

When the feeling ain't the same and your body don't want to

But you know gotta let it go 'cause the party ain't

Jumpin' like it used to

Even though this might bruise you

Let it burn (yeah)

Let it burn

Gotta let it burn

Deep down, you know it's best for yourself, but you

Hate the thought of her being with someone else

But you know that it's over

We knew it was through

Let it burn (let it burn)

Let it burn (let it burn)

Gotta let it burn

Sendin' pages I ain't supposed to

Got somebody here but I want you

'Cause the feeling ain't the same

Find myself callin' her your name

Ladies, tell me do you understand?

Now, all my fellas do you feel my pain?

It's the way I feel

I know I made a mistake

Now it's too late

I know she ain't coming back

What I got to do now

To get my shorty back?

Man, I don't know what I'm gonna do without my boo

You've been gone for too long

It's been fifty-eleven days, umpteen hours

I'ma be burnin' 'til you return (let it burn)

When the feeling ain't the same and your body don't want to

But you know gotta let it go 'cause the party ain't

Jumpin' like it used to

Even though this might bruise you

Let it burn

Let it burn

Gotta let it burn

Deep down, you know it's best for yourself, but you

Hate the thought of her being with someone else

But you know that it's over (know it's over)

We knew it was through

Let it burn

Let it burn

Gotta let it burn

I'm twisted 'cause one side of me is tellin' me that I need to move on

On the other side, I wanna break down and cry, ooh

I'm twisted 'cause one side of me is tellin' me that I need to move on

On the other side, I wanna break down and cry, yeah

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh, ooh (can you feel me burning?)

Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh

So many days, so many hours

I'm still burnin' 'til you return

When the feeling ain't the same and your body don't want to

But you know gotta let it go 'cause the party ain't

Jumpin' like it used to

Even though this might bruise you

Let it burn

Let it burn

Gotta let it burn

Deep down, you know it's best for yourself, but you

Hate the thought of her being with someone else

But you know that it's over

We knew it was through

Let it burn

Let it burn

Gotta let it burn
