Wake up
I really think this time
It's gone too far
You're drifting away from me
Stuck in this mess
With nowhere to hide
And it cuts me up
Been down this road before
This broken path leads to your door
It's time to turn and walk away
Why are we holding on
When all the love has gone?
I need you to know
That I'm letting go
Of you today
Where did it all go wrong?
I thought our love was strong
I need you to know
That I'm letting go
Of you today
Echoes
Of words that bring you down
It's killing me, the sound
Of silence as you leave
I can't embrace
The tears on your face
It cuts me up
Been down this road before
This broken path leads to your door
It's time to turn and walk away
Why are we holding on
When all the love has gone?
I need you to know
That I'm letting go
Of you today
The time has come to say goodbye
I surrender, and please don't cry
I'm letting, I'm letting go
Where did it all go wrong?
I thought our love was strong
I need you to know
That I'm letting go
Of you today
Where did it all go wrong?
