Let Go Lyrics

I was getting younger
you were going under
the hurricanes in your mind
standing on the corner
waiting for another
you and I were so unkind

everything you promised,
everything I wanted
when you told me it would be alright

has fallen at the end of day
everything is stripped away

oh and I know, I know
that I won't let go
I know it's over
but I won't let go
oh, I know that
I won't let go I
know it's over
but I won't let it go

I can't let go oh
and I know I can't let go

I knew that you were running,
knew that it was coming
half a million miles away
it isn't getting better,
I talk about the weather
but everything calls your name

keeping to the shallows,
every single hour
the world becomes more the same

I'm losing what you never gave
I give what you could never take

oh and I know, I know
that I won't let go
I know it's over
but I won't let go
oh, I know that
I won't let go I
know it's over
but I won't let it go
I can't let go oh
and I know I can't let go

stand out there
in the cold summer air
I've been waiting for you
to come home

now I'm down to the end,
I'm not trying to pretend
that there's some way I can go on

so I hold out my heart
I surrender my arms
this feeling is all that I am

I'll lay down in the road
in the arms of your ghost
and I'll stay there as long as I can
