The Letting Go
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
All the questions that you never thought to ask
Always thinking he was there to watch your back
Years that you've wasted gone
Always in the name of loyalty and faith
All the memories you wish you had not made
Tears, as you taste them
Each one a piece of your soul, so cold
As the truth starts to unfold
One voice calling, one tear falling
They echo in emptiness
One bridge burning, last page turning
Don't waste time on regrets
One world's ending, broken, bending
It's time to walk out that door
And to savor the taste of good-bye
It's time for the letting go
Up till now the road was straight, and smooth, and clear
All at once the path's completely dissapeared
Clouds bring the darkness down
Here's a candle and a match to help you on
Till the storm is done, and then you're on your own
A shoulder to lean on
Just till you're back on your feet, 'till you're free
'Til that old smile starts to show
One voice calling, one tear falling
They echo in emptiness
One bridge burning, last page turning
Don't waste time on regrets
One heart breaking, rude awakening
Some things you just can't control
One world's ending, broken, bending
It's time to walk out that door
And to savor the taste of good-bye
It's time for the letting go
It's time for the letting go
It's time for the letting go
Time, time for the letting go
