LET YOU FLY
Verse 1
Before we close the door
There’s something I should say
I’ve been walking circles in my mind
Trying to find another way
Every sentence starts with you
Then I erase the page
There are things I’ll never understand
And things I cannot change
My heart doesn’t fit the way it did before
Maybe that’s what love can do
So I won’t ask you to stay anymore
I’ll open my hands and let go of you
Pre-Chorus
Don’t cry
I know this hurts tonight
Sometimes loving someone means
You have to let them fly
Chorus
So I’m letting go of your hand
Even though a part of me still wants to hold on
I need you to know
This goodbye doesn’t mean that the love is gone
It’s hard to walk away
But I won’t hide from what I know
I loved you enough to stay
Now I love you enough to let you go
Let you go
Let you go
I’m finally ready to let you go
Verse 2
I fill every hour of every day
Just to keep you off my mind
But somehow in the quiet moments
You’re the only thing I find
Your memory lives beneath my skin
Like ink I can’t erase
And sometimes I still almost call Megan
Just to hear her voice again
But we can’t rebuild yesterday
By wishing hard enough
Maybe moving forward is the final way
That I can honor what we were
Pre-Chorus
No blame
No anger left to hold
Just two people who once burned so bright
Learning how to let it go
Chorus
So I’m letting go of your hand
Even though a part of me still wants to hold on
I need you to know
This goodbye doesn’t mean that the love is gone
It’s hard to walk away
But I won’t hide from what I know
I loved you enough to stay
Now I love you enough to let you go
Let you go
Let you go
I’m finally ready to let you go
Bridge
Where are you tonight?
Who makes you laugh now?
Do you ever see the same stars
And think of how it all went down?
I hope someday the rain clears
And all the pain turns small
Maybe we’ll meet again as strangers
Who are grateful for it all
I’ll remember the sky above us
The roads we used to know
Some memories aren’t meant to disappear
Just because we let them go
Final Chorus
So I’m letting go of your hand
And this time I won’t reach back for you
I need you to know
Walking away is the hardest thing I’ll do
It’s hard to say goodbye
But I’m not running anymore
I loved you with everything I had
Now I’m opening the door
Go find the life that’s waiting
I hope every dream comes true
And if loving you means releasing you
Then I’ll let you fly
I’ll let you fly
I’m finally ready
To say goodbye
