[Verse 1]
We often fool ourselves and say
That it's love only
'Cause when it's gone
We end up being lonely

[Refrain]
So how are we to know
That it just isn't so
That we just have to let each other go

[Verse 2]
There were many times
When we shared precious moments
But later realized they were only stolen moments

[Refrain]
So how are we to know
That it just wasn't so
That we just had to let each othеr go

[Chorus]
If loving you is all that means to me
When bеing happy is all I hope you'd be
Then loving you must mean
I really have to set you free
[Verse 3]
Each day we meet, my love for you
Keeps growing stronger
But every time we meet
Makes leaving you so much harder

[Refrain]
So how are we to know
That this just wasn't so
That we just have to let each other go

[Chorus]
If loving you is all that means to me
When being happy is all I hope you'd be
Then loving you must mean
I really have to set you free

[Bridge]
Letting go is not an easy task
When smiling feels like
I must wear this lonely mask
It hurts deep inside
And I just cannot hide
That there's anguish at the thought
That we should have to part
[Chorus]
If loving you is all that means to me
When being happy is all I hope you'd be
Then loving you must mean
I really have to set

[Outro]
Then loving you must mean
I really have to set
Then loving you must mean
I really have to set you free
