Jaybird

I saw a photo of us yesterday
And it took over my mind
It's a picture of a story
Just writing its opening lines
It's never been clearer
That time was not on our side

I get visits from the devil
He comes and he goes
He whispers what might've been

Then that little Jaybird, he settles on my mind and he says
To love again, you've got to let go
You've got to let go

I trace the lines across your face
And wipe the tears from my cheek
As my heart starts to turn back
I reach out for your hand
Then remember why we said goodbye

I get visits from the devil
He comes and he goes
He whispers what might've been

Then that little Jaybird settles on my mind and he says
To love again, you've got to let go
You've got to let go

I've gotta let go
Gotta let go
Gotta let go
But darling, what if we try and this time we fly?

You've got to let go
I've got to let go
You've got to let go
We've got to let go
I've got to let go
