Letting Go

[Verse 1]
Lettin' my guard down for you
Was a big mistake
Tore down my walls just for you
And yet it caused me pain
Gave you my all and I thought
You would do the same
Instead you left me with nothing
But someone to blame

[Pre-Chorus]
For the inner war
My heart still can't fight, up until this day
Or the rough nights I wake up crying 'cause you didn't stay
For those people holding hands walking down the street
They got me thinking that could've been you and me

[Chorus]
Loving you means letting go
Yeah, I tried, but I have to go on
'Cause we're not on the same track
Walkin' different paths and I can't pull you my way
So loving you means letting go

[Verse 2]
By now, I know, there isn't much more I can do
But still, I don't want the right man if I can't have you
I tried so hard to get you with me on this road
Till my friend said sometimes lovin' means letting go

[Pre-Chorus]
Feelin' trapped inside, my heart's running on empty
Oh, I'm so tired
It's inevitable, I have to leave it all behind

[Chorus]
Loving you means letting go
Yeah, I tried, but I have to go on
'Cause we're not on the same track
Walkin' different paths and I can't pull you my way
So loving you means letting go

[Bridge]
I thought that holding on to
Was worth the pain I went through
Too afraid of losing you
Though I'd lost you already
I held on for too long
Became a prisoner of my own
Now I'm finally movin' on

[Chorus]
Loving you means letting go
Yeah, I tried, but I have to go on
'Cause we're not on the same track
Walkin' different paths and I can't pull you my way
So loving you means letting go

[Outro]
Yeah, loving you means letting go
Yeah, I tried, but I have to go on
'Cause we're not on the same track (same track)
Walkin' different paths (oh) and I can't pull you my way
So loving you means letting go
