letting go 'cause i know
you were only half way there
even though we were close
i was holding on just long enough to know
i should be letting go

thinking back on when you used to
fill my head with empty words
wishing now that i refused to listen
how did i ever let it happen
never thought i'd ever say
gotta leave this life and all the foolish pain
now i see that i've been wasting time
i had a picture of us painted in my mind
now it's fading and there's nothing left to do
letting go 'cause i know
you were only half way there
even though we were close
i was holding on just long
