Shy on the onset
Smooth with the words
She gave him stories
Didn’t even have to ask for it
Parisian pale dusk
Tokyo dawns
They promised each other
Each other the world
Something in back of his mind
Said take time
Don’t rush where you can’t see ahead
But he didn’t listen
Heart wrapped up in kisses
Feeling like the right thing
Right thing
But if it ain’t broke
Then why you tryna fix it?
If it ain’t broke
Then why you tryna fix it?
‘Cause if it ain’t broke
Then leave it alone
She made vow
Gave him her heart
He broke it
Broke it into pieces
All the kings horses
And all the kings men
Couldn’t put her back together again
Picked up the pieces herself
Didn’t need no one
To make it better
But now he’s coming back around
Think she’s down for the thrill
But she prefer to heal now
Heal now
So if it ain’t broke
Then why you tryna fix it?
If it ain’t broke
Then why you keep tryna repair it
Cause if it ain’t broke
Then leave it alone
Like seasons
People come
You gotta let ‘em go
Don’t you hold yourself down
Let ‘em go
If people don’t believe in you
Let em go
Ain’t doing you no favors
So let ‘em go
Everything is changing
Let it go
Don’t you be afraid of change
Just let it go
Keep yourself focused
And let it go
Don’t get caught up
Baby let it go
Let it go
Just let it go
Ohhh, Ohhh
