Letting Go

[Verse 1]
Put the money that I owed just inside your porch
And the lights were on but I guess you weren't around
Saw the plastic Christmas tree
In the kitchen through the blinds
And the bowl-cap stars
Being hung by the tangled lights
And I thought about hangin' around
Thought maybe we could work this out
But you wouldn't see me then
And I couldn't face you now
I been sleeping in my car
In a worker stars and jars
Yeah I got some work
And I sold my guitar to pay you back
To pay you back

[Chorus]
The snows piling up outside
If there's a bus 'round here tonight
I wanna be on it
Holding on for a reason
While you're letting go
While you're letting go

[Verse 2]
Maybe checking in on Swade
Yeah I heard he's on the slide
I left a message at his work
He never replied
He said his brother went to jail
And they gave him five years
We'll tell while we're drinking man if I ever get back from here
And I heard about your tattoo, and how Mike covered it up
Well they say it doesn't hurt if you don't look
So I won't look
So I won't look

[Verse 3]
And the gray trucks are rolling by
The snow glows orange in the light
It might feel warm in a love passed time
But since you said goodbye
Yeah, since you said goodbye

[Verse 4]
Well this is my last phone call home
My last pennies in a payphone
Well this is my last phone call home
My last pennies in a payphone
This is goodbye
This is goodbye
Goodbye
This is goodbye
Goodbye
Goodbye
