In this song, the singer expresses his conflicting feelings about an ex. He oscillates between lamenting the loss of the relationship (“should’ve never let you go”) and deciding its time to move on (It’s time to let it go") while acknowledging that he’s looking at the past through rose-colored lense...
[Verse 1]
You were never a soldier, you were never a prize
You were never a song in my eyes
Yeah, you are childhood, twisted and disguised
Oh, I am drowning in a world that's always been dry
You're the sun I never see rise
Yeah, it is midnight but my day only just arrived
[Pre-Chorus]
I never breathe the air without you
Somehow entering my mind
I only breathe the air to keep you inside
So you would always be mine
[Chorus]
Should have never let you go
Everybody knows, everybody knows
Should have never let you go
Everybody knows, everybody knows
Three years and, baby, don't you know, it's time to let it go
Three years and, baby, don't you know, it's time to let it go
[Verse 2]
You were never a stranger, you were never unkind
But I had fiction on my side
Yeah, I had fiction strongly on my side
[Pre-Chorus]
I never kept you like a secret, I never tried to make you hide
I only ever meant to keep you inside
So you would always be mine
[Chorus]
Should have never let you go
Everybody knows, everybody knows
Should have never let you go
Everybody knows, everybody knows
Three years and, baby, don't you know, it's time to let it go
Three years and, baby, don't you know, it's time to let it go
[Chorus]
Should have never let you go
Everybody knows, everybody knows
Should have never let you go
Everybody knows, everybody knows
Three years and, baby, don't you know, it's time to let go
Three years and, baby, don't you know, it's time to let go
[Outro]
Should have never let you go
Everybody knows, everybody knows
Three years and, baby, don't you know, it's time to let go
