Lyrics:
Let me go, let me go, let me go

Oh, please release me, let me go
I don't love you anymore
To live together is a sin
Release me and let me love again

I, I have found upon new love dear
And don't you know
I'll always, I'll always want him near

His lips are warm while yours are cold
Release me, my darling
Why don't you just let me go

Oh, please release me, let me go
I said, I don't love you
I just don't, I just don't love you anymore

To live together, to live together
Lord knows, is a sin
Release me and let me love again

Let me go, let me go
