Lynn Anderson – How Can I Unlove You Lyrics
How can I unsay the things I said to you?
How can I undo the things that we used to do?
Tell me how can I unfeel the way I feel for you?
How can I unlove you?
How can I untight the hold that you got on me?
When you won't unchain my heart and set me free
I can't unremember every memory
So how can I unlove you?
I'll never, never uncry the tears
That I cried when you said goodbye
No, I'll never, never unmiss
The thrill that I missed when we used to kiss
How can I unsay the things I said to you?
And how can I undo the things that we used to do?
Tell me how can I unfeel the way I feel for you?
How can I unlove you?
Woah, I'll never, never uncry the tears
That I cried when you said goodbye
No, I'll never, never unmiss
The thrill that I missed when we used to kiss, oh
How can I unsay the things I said to you?
How can I undo the things that we used to do?
And tell me how can I unfeel the way I feel for you?
How can I unlove you?
How can I unlove you?
How can I unlove you?
