Possessive Love - Marilyn Martin

I want you back within my heart

Lettin' go was the hardest part

Oh take me back into your heart

Lettin' go was the hardest part

Possessive love can never be right

And I found out the other night

You never gave me a reason to doubt

I was afraid when you walked out

I should’ve held back

But I felt my pride

Was welling up inside me

And now you’re gone

I held too tight and you went away

Come back to my heart

Letting go was the hardest part

I’d give my all just to hear you say

Take me back to your heart

Letting go was the hardest part

Two hearts are better

When they stay free

That’s what you always said to me

Don’t try to own or you will destroy

That very thing that brought you joy

My fantasy made a fool out of me

I always thought I was so strong

And now you’re gone

I think I finally understand

I let the reins slip through my hand

I held too tight

A caged bird always wants to fly

Letting go was the hardest part
