[Verse 1]
You still call me late at night
Like nothing’s really changed
Say you miss the way it felt…
But you don’t stay
You keep one foot out the door
Like you’ve done a hundred times
And I keep letting you back in…
And I don’t know why
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m holding on to something
That you already let go
[Chorus]
So let me go… (gooo)
If you don’t love me like before (beforeeeee)
If I’m just someone you come back to
When you’re feeling alone (aloneeeeee)
Let me go… (gooo)
I can’t keep doing this no more (moreeeee)
If your heart ain’t really in it
Don’t say it is
Just let me go
[Verse 2]
I see it in the way you talk
Like something’s missing now
Like you’re already somewhere else…
Just not out loud
I tried to be enough for you
Tried to fix what I could fix
But love ain’t something you can force…
And this ain’t it
[Pre-Chorus]
I’m tired of pretending
We’re something we’re not
[Chorus]
So let me go… (gooo)
If you don’t love me like before (beforeeeee)
If I’m just someone you come back to
When you’re feeling alone (aloneeeeee)
Let me go… (gooo)
I can’t keep doing this no more (moreeee)
If your heart ain’t really in it
Don’t say it is
Just let me go
[Bridge (stripped, steel emotional)]
[(drums drop, steel cries softly)]
I’d rather hurt right now than slowly break
Watching you walk in and out every day
[(steel answers)]
If this is all we’re ever gonna be…
Then set me free
[Final Chorus (emotional lift)]
So let me go… (let me gooooooo)
Even if it tears me apart (aparttttt)
I’d rather lose you all at once
Than lose you piece by piece in my heart (heart)
Let me go…
I’ll find a way to heal somehow
But I can’t keep holding onto something
That’s not here now
Just let me go
[Outro (steel fade)]
[(steel bends, fading out)]
