I Have To Let Go

I was young and so was he
I thought that he was the best for me
He got in the booze 
He got in the drugs 
Right there of course I realized that i had no hope

I felt so sad and lonely inside 
my emptiness can not hide
eventually i realized 
that it was the feelings that he had for the other girl no matter how hard it hurts 
no matter how much pain that it cost me inside 
i will eventually have to realize
that i have no chance 
even if i have no pants 
that it hurt to let go 
but i had no chance
