Letting Go
Why do I have to go through all this
When it's love we obviously both miss
Just take a second to think of me
Understand the things you cannot see
And if this really is your chosen way
I wish you happiness on every single day
My last act of loving is setting you free
Hoping you know it means you're everything to me
I don't even want to get mad
Knowing it would make you feel sad
Getting that you would if you could
The moment I stopped thinking I should
Not excactly what I was looking for
Truthfully it left me wanting more
Not a thing I wouldn't try to do
But never could I be hurting you
So go and please be the better for it
Only remember once I mattered a little bit
