Lyrics
[Verse 1]
We built a house in borrowed time
Hung our hopes on every wall
Thought if I loved you hard enough
It might stop you from the fall
You packed your bags in quiet words
Eyes on anything but me
I held my breath like maybe that
Could keep you here
Could keep you
[Chorus]
If love means letting you be
Then I'll be learning how to set you free
Even if it cuts right through me
Even if it steals my sleep
I won't drag your shadow home
Won't beg a heart that wants to roam
Hurts like hell
But I know
Sometimes love is letting someone go
[Verse 2]
Your sweater still on my old chair
Coffee cup with your red stain
Tiny ghosts of simple days
Haunt the corners of my brain
I replay every almost-fight
All the truths I never said
But you can't bargain with goodbye
Once it's left
It's left
[Chorus]
If love means letting you be
Then I'll be learning how to set you free
Even if it cuts right through me
Even if it steals my sleep
I won't drag your shadow home
Won't beg a heart that wants to roam
Hurts like hell
But I know
Sometimes love is letting someone go
[Bridge]
One day you'll laugh in someone else's light (oh)
I'll drive past our street and not look twice
I'll wish you calm
I'll wish you peace
I'll wish myself the strength to finally
[Chorus]
If love means letting you be
Then I'll be learning how to set you free
Even if it cuts right through me
Even if it steals my sleep
I won't drag your shadow home
Won't beg a heart that wants to roam
Hurts like hell
But I know
Real love stays
And if it won't
Sometimes love is letting someone go
