Here I am holding to your mem'ry like it was made of purest gold
That old flame still burns within me in my heart and in my soul
I can't keep from thinking of you what we had was just so good
I can't help if I still love you I'd forget you if I could
Even the sparrow knows to fly with the wind
And the willow tree it knows when to bend
Even a fool knows when to go with the flow
I know you don't so when will I let go
[ steel ]
I think of all we shared together and it tears me up inside
To really think that it's all over and I still can't say goodbye
Even the sparrow knows...
I know you don't so when will I let go
