Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I kept your old shirt
Folded in the drawer
Still smells like your soap
On the sleeve at the door
You kissed me like home
I held on too tight
I saw your bright world
And stepped out of the light
[Pre-Chorus]
I tried to fit
Where I should've been
But my hands shook
Every time you came in
[Chorus]
Let me go, my love
I was never enough
I still reach for your hand
In the dark, in the hush
Let me go, my love
I was never enough
I still want your smile
Like a prayer I can't touch
[Verse 2]
Your laugh in my chest
Like rain on dry glass
I hear it at dusk
And the whole room goes black
I wore my small fears
Like a chain on my heart
You gave me the sun
I was falling apart
[Pre-Chorus]
I saw it too late
What you needed from me
A stronger kind of fire
A softer kind of peace
[Chorus]
Let me go, my love
I was never enough
I still reach for your hand
In the dark, in the hush
Let me go, my love
I was never enough
I still want your smile
Like a prayer I can't touch
[Bridge]
If I could be the girl
You deserved that day
I’d stand in the storm
And not look away
But love, I know now
Some hearts don't stay
Mine keeps your name
When yours fades away
[Final Chorus]
Let me go, my love
I was never enough
I still reach for your hand
In the dark, in the hush
Let me go, my love
I was never enough
I still want your smile
Like a prayer I can't touch
Let me go, my love
I was never enough
I will love you forever
Even if I must let you go
