Text: Edie Brickell & The New Bohemians. Stwisted.
I ain't gonna kill myself lovin' you
I ain't gonna break my own heart
I ain't gonna kill myself wantin' you
When you don't seem to want any part of my love
And I know I'll be fine just as soon as I let go
Yes, I know I'll be alright as soon as I let go
Get a strong case of weakness, a rich worthless love
Tell you straight out that it's twisted
Crack flash of lightnin' struck from above
Knocked down a cow and I kissed ya
Oh, now, now I know I'll be fine just as soon as I let go
Yes, I know I'll be alright as soon as I let go
But I keep holdin' on for a future
I keep waitin' for somethin' to change
And I keep holdin' on for a future
I keep lookin' for somethin' that I never see
I ain't gonna kill myself lovin' you
I ain't gonna die for a life together
I ain't gonna kill myself wantin' you
You don't seem to want me, oh, my days go by
But I know I'll be fine just as soon as I let go
Yes, I know I'll be alright as soon as I let go
Yes, I know I'll be fine just as soon as I let you go
Babe, I know I'll be alright as soon as I let go
Why make my heart go to bed, not hungry
Why make my heart go to bed, in that cold
Why make my heart go to bed in that feeling to know
I ain't gonna break my own heart
I ain't gonna kill myself wantin' you
When you don't seem to want any part of my love
And I know I'll be fine just as soon as I let go
Yes, I know I'll be alright as soon as I let go
Get a strong case of weakness, a rich worthless love
Tell you straight out that it's twisted
Crack flash of lightnin' struck from above
Knocked down a cow and I kissed ya
Oh, now, now I know I'll be fine just as soon as I let go
Yes, I know I'll be alright as soon as I let go
But I keep holdin' on for a future
I keep waitin' for somethin' to change
And I keep holdin' on for a future
I keep lookin' for somethin' that I never see
I ain't gonna kill myself lovin' you
I ain't gonna die for a life together
I ain't gonna kill myself wantin' you
You don't seem to want me, oh, my days go by
But I know I'll be fine just as soon as I let go
Yes, I know I'll be alright as soon as I let go
Yes, I know I'll be fine just as soon as I let you go
Babe, I know I'll be alright as soon as I let go
Why make my heart go to bed, not hungry
Why make my heart go to bed, in that cold
Why make my heart go to bed in that feeling to know
