Let Go

Standing in the cold Chicago air
I still smell your perfume
And I've been trying to find how not to care
But I still love you

And you say it's not enough
It's all going down the drain
And you bristle to the touch
You've thrown it all away

So take off and let go
We're falling out of touch
And don't let your heart know
To feel it would be too much

So take down your ramparts
You'll need them another day
And I know you felt love
Tears streaming 'til you're hauled away

Battling the feel, the thought of you
Even though you're miles away
Feel it everyday 'til it's nothing new
Still haven't found the right words to say

Well you made it out alive
While I'm still on the beach
And you swear we'll be alright
When I know you're out of reach

So take off and let go
We're falling out of touch
And don't let your heart know
To feel it would be too much

So take down your ramparts
You'll need them another day
And I know you felt love
Tears streaming 'til you're hauled away

Change keeps coming hard and fast
I can't love you if it can't last

So take off and let go
We're falling out of touch
And don't let your heart know
To feel it would be too much

So take down your ramparts
You'll need them another day
And I know you felt love
Tears streaming 'til you're hauled away
