Lyrics: There goes my old girlfriend There's another diamond ring And a all those late night promises I guess they don't mean a thing So baby, what's the story Did you find another man Is it easy to sleep in the bed that we made When you don't look back I guess The feelings start to fade away I used to feel your fire But now it's cold inside And you're back on the street Like you didn't miss a beat, yeah Tell me what it takes to let you go Tell me how the pain's supposed to go Tell me how it is that you can sleep In the night, without thinkin' you lost Everything that was good in your life To the toss of the dice Tell me what it takes to let you go Yeah, Girl, before I met you, I was F.I.N.E - fine But your love made me a prisoner Yeah, my heart's been doing time You spent me up like money Then you hung me out to dry It was easy to keep all your lies in disguise 'Cause you had me in deep With the devil in your eyes (Chorus) Guitar! Tell me that you're happy that you're on your own Yeah, yeah, yeah Tell me that it's better when you're all alone Tell me that your body doesn't miss my touch Tell me that my lovin' didn't mean that much Tell me you ain't dying When you're cryin' for me (Repeat Chorus) Tell me who's to blame for thinkin' twice 'Cause i don't wanna burn in Paradise Oh, let it go, let it go... I don't wanna burn....
