Didn't ever wonder why we never settled in,
We drank too much gin, we drank too much gin.
Didn't ever notice that the carpet there was thin
Been lived upon,
Before we laid our heads down there.
No I won't forget, but i'm getting stronger.
There's a place in my heart, I will move on.
I'll put it in a box, i'll bury it so low,
To sleep beneth the cliche love songs, we'll call this one letting go.
I thought i'd shut you down,
I thought i'd thrown away the key.
But then stepping and tripping you ring my bell
You keep running back to me.
No I won't forget, but i'm getting stronger.
There's a place in my heart, I will move on.
I'll put it in a box, i'll bury it so low,
To sleep beneth the cliche love songs, and we'll call this one letting go.
Even the best crystal breaks.
It's not dishwasher safe if it's not what it said on the box
So we smash it up.
Just get lost.
And if skin and bones is not that pretty,
I lost myself, but found somthing else.
And I swear I could make you understand,
If you'd just shut up and hold my hand.
But no baby, no change.
No, hearts did fade.
And the bells they chime
(......?)
And I swear i'll lay this one to rest,
With my skinny jeans and my purple vest.
But
No I won't forget, but i'm getting stronger.
There's a place in my heart, I will move on.
I'll put it in a box, i'll bury it so low,
To sleep beneth the cliche love songs, and we'll call this one letting go.
No I won't forget, but i'm getting stronger.
There's a place in my heart, I will move on.
I'll put it in a box, i'll bury it so low,
To sleep beneth the cliche love songs, and we'll call this one letting go.
Just letting go.
