[Intro]
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ah
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, hm-mm-mm
[Verse 1]
See it all coming down, falling down
Like the rain, like the sound
That we listen to
When you falling asleep 'cause you hate the silence
Always trying to feel like we in the islands
Life was never a breeze, oh, baby, let's be honest
Soon as it get too real, we're gonna sabotage this
And I put my feelings aside just to feel you one more night
Said it a thousand times
[Chorus]
I know, I know, I know
I gotta let you go
You never worked for me
It's never gonna grow
I know, I know, I know
I gotta let it go
You'll never work for keep
It's temporary, oh
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh (Yeah, yeah)
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ah
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, hm-mm-mm (Yeah)
[Verse 2]
Know I said I like a little give-and-take
But I can't be out here checking on you every day
Especially when I know you never do the same, baby, so
This the part where I leave 'cause mama said I should, and
You come looking for me, but this time you couldn't
Ever find me again, I reconnect with my friends
I found myself in the end, yeah, I'll be good
And even still, boy, I know I will see you everywhere
Wish my heart could have some chill 'cause
[Chorus]
I know, I know, I know
I gotta let you go
You never worked for me
It's never gonna grow
I know, I know, I know
I gotta let it go
You'll never work for keep
It's temporary, oh
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ah (Oh)
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, hm-mm-mm
[Chorus]
I know, I know, I know
I gotta let you go
You never worked for me
It's never gonna grow
I know, I know, I know
I gotta let it go
You'll never work for keep
It's temporary, oh
[Post-Chorus]
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh (Yeah)
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ah (Oh)
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, hm-mm-mm
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ah
Ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh
Ooh-ooh, hm-mm-mm

“Temporary” is just me being really honest about not knowing how to let go of something that I knew couldn’t last. My life over the last year has felt like a constant, rapid cycle of shedding my skin, and it still is. I hope it always will be. I now believe that there’s no limit to the amount of “fr...
