Lyric

The destination of your laughing voice

Still sways within my chest without a choice

The scenery I thought I let go of

Returns on quiet nights, the ghost of love

"I’m doing fine," I said it first back then

Just to leave before the pain began

But truth is, I still wanted you to stay

My own excuses gently block the way

I let you go, more quiet than a last goodbye

I cared so much, but here is where the truths reside

The wish to hold you and the reason I turned away

Are tangled in the same old place

Even still today

Searching for a new and different key

The weight of then is still inside of me

Even when I tell my heart to just be free

My heavy breathing is the only thing I see

"Let's laugh someday," we made a promise then

But you won't be in that "someday" ever again

I know that I will never reach your side

But still, my heart is waiting for the tide

I let you go, more quiet than a last goodbye

I loved you truly, but we couldn't make it right

The bright tomorrow and the today we had to lose

Are crossing paths within my chest

Tangled in the blues

If I had only chosen different words

Would things have changed or would they be unheard?

I’ll never know, so I must walk ahead

But still, my heart looks back

At all the things we said

I let you go, more quiet than a last goodbye

A whispered "be happy," even if I start to cry

I won't blame us for the end that we have found

I’ll gently start to let the memories

Unravel on the ground
