I remember when you whispered low
I will go with you wherever you go
Then I went and found someone new
No one ever made me feel the way that you do 

Sometimes you don't know
When to hold on or when to let go
Sometimes you don't know
Sometimes 

Then I came home one day
Your best friend told me you'd gone away
Had enough of my wild mispent youth
Now the tears in my eyes are the only truth 

Sometimes you don't know
When to hold on or when to let go
Sometimes you don't know 
Sometimes you don't know

When to hold on or when to let go
Sometimes you don't know
Hey 
Hey Mister D.J.

I don't need no sympathy
I made my choice
And when it all comes down
It all comes down on me 

Now if I gotta take this thing
With my back against the wall
Won't you play me some Chuck Jackson
And watch those blue shadows fall

I'm free but I am alone 
Sometimes you don't know
When to hold on or when to let go
Sometimes you don't know 

Sometimes you don't know
When to hold on or when to let go
Sometimes 
Sometimes

You better let go 
Oh whoa oh
Yeah
Oh whoa oh

Yeah

Oh whoa oh
Oh whoa oh
Oh whoa oh
Oh whoa oh
Oh whoa oh
