LET HER GO
(Lou Stallman / Ruth Allison)

as recorded by Alma Cogan
1967


Just look at how sad you walk,
Tears in your eyes every time you talk;
She's been untrue and yet you've been pursuing her like a fool!

Just let her go, let her go, leave her behind,
Let her go, let her go, give me a chance and you'll find
You'll want me, need me
And you'll never leave me;
I'll kiss you, love you well!

I want to be near now,
Just bringing the love that could cheer you now;
You can be sure darling, forever more I'll be your true love!

So let her go, let her go, leave her behind,
Let her go, let her go, give me a chance and you'll find
You'll want me, need me
And you'll never leave me;
I'll kiss you and love you well!

Let her go, let her go, leave her behind,
Let her go, let her go, give me a chance and you'll find
You'll want me, need me
And you'll never leave me;
I'll kiss you and love you
And think only of you;
You'll want me and need me...
