Let you go

It’s the toughest decision I’ve had to make

But this is the opportunity you have to take

I can’t be the one who stops you and your dream

I don’t want to be the dam stopping your stream

Inside it’s hurting and I’m screaming my love for you

But on the outside I’m blank, wanting nothing from you

The tears I shed are memories of us leaving me

Your bright future ahead is all I want you to see

I have to let you go

I have to tell you lies

My heart is breaking

There’s grey in the skies

I have to let you go

Step to one side

I have to forget

You’re on another ride

I have to escape and find a way to move one

I keep looking around, pretending you haven’t gone

The pain of you leaving is crushing my heart

Why isn’t life simple?  Can we go back to the start?

Bridge

Will I ever see you again? Will our lives past once more?

I’ll always be here waiting ready to open love’s door
