What we used to hang on to is gone

We might as well throw in the tower and call it quits
We patched things up too many times now nothing fits
Since we both feel the way we do we can't keep hanging on
Now that what we used to hang on to is gone
There's no more love you in my heart you'd know it
And the love lights burned out in your eyes they'd show it
Why don't we both just face facts we can't keep hanging on
Now that what we used to hang on to is gone
Let's let our mem'ries rest in peace and leave the past behind
We'll bury all our dyin' dreams and break the ties that bind
There's no use being prisoners we'll regret it so let set one another free forget it
It's the only thing to do we can't keep hanging on
Now that what we used to hang on to is gone
Now that what we used to hang on to is gone
