Can't Let Her Get Away
Michael Jackson
Dangerous (1991)

I thought she had to have it
Since the first time she came
Who knows the situation
Mysteries remain
And now I wonder why
I break down when I cry
Is it something I said
Or is it just a lie
(Is it just a lie)

I try so hard to love you
Some things take
Time and shame
I think the whole world of you
Your thoughts of me remain
I'll play the fool for you
I'll change the rules for you
Just say it and I'll do
Just make this thing come true
(Make this dream come true)

If I let her get away
Though I'm begging on my knees
I'll be crying everyday
Knowing the girl
That got away

Chorus:
I can't let
I can't let her get away
I can't let
I can't let her get away
I can't let
I can't let her get away
I can't let
I can't let her get away

I tried to mastermind it
By saying let it be
But every time I did it
The hurt came back at me
I told you that I need you
A thousand times and why
I played the fool for you
And still you said goodbye
(Still you said goodbye)

Chorus
(Repeat to end)
