Let Me Go Melissa Etheridge

[Verse 1]
Am I the snake inside your garden?
The sugar in your tea?
The knock upon your back door?
The twist that turns your key?
Am I the sweat you feel on your hand?
The shadow on your face?
The tune inside your head
That put you here in the first place?
Well, I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be
I don't wanna be your sweet temptation
Don't wanna be your new sensation
It's such a delicate distraction
With just a hint of satisfaction

[Chorus]
Look me in the eye and let me know
If you can't love me, then let me go
Let me go
Let me go
Let me go
Oh

[Verse 2]
Do you try to stay suspended
In your deepest fantasy?
After night has ended
The scent of mystery
The power of suggestion
Tangles up your soul
A neutral state between love and hate
Is bound to take its toll
Well, I don't think you know
I don't think you know
I don't think you know about the screaming
You don't understand the meaning
You could trade it in for laughter
To keep your happy ever after
