Yeah You know what's funny? Seems every time I try to forget about you My feelings pull you back in You know, 'cause I got somebody else And you got somebody else But you and I both know What it really is But still You know what I'm saying, B? Ran across a picture you took of me And you crossed my mind And it got me thinkin' 'Bout how it used to be It was just you and me I still hear you saying you love me When I close my eyes Put no one else above me But that was back then; now you're just a memory If I didn't go away to school Then where would we be? Probably still together and somewhere happy If I'm supposed to be moved on in a new relationship strong Then why are you still haunting me? They say If you love something, let it go And if it comes back, then that's how you know I got to the stop light then I made four rights Now I'm back where I started And you're back in my life The further I go, the closer I get back to you I say I moved on Till I'm reminded of you Can somebody help me? Help me get out of this circle (out of this circle) I drove past your house the other day I didn't even mean to I went the wrong way I ain't seen your mama in a while When she looked at me she smiled And asked me if I'm doing okay Took everything I had Not to bring up your name And wonder if you came home for the holidays, yeah She asked if I could stay awhile 'Cause you had come in town And you were just five minutes away If you love something, let it go And if it comes back, then that's how you know I got to the stop light then I made four rights Now I'm back where I started And you're back in my life The further I go, the closer I get back to you I say I moved on Till I'm reminded of you Can somebody help me? Help me get out of this circle (out of this circle) Anybody who's listening to this If you got that person that makes you wonder what if Let me hear you say yeah (yeah) Say yeah (yeah) Say yeah (yeah) Oh yeah (oh yeah) If you understand how I feel Then grab that person now and let 'em know what's real Let me hear you say yeah (yeah) Yeah (yeah) Yeah, hey If you love something, let it go And if it comes back, then that's how you know I got to the stop light then I made four rights Now I'm back where I started And you're back in my life The further I go, the closer I get back to you I say I moved on Till I'm reminded of you Can somebody help me? Help me get out of this circle (out of this circle)
