The Letting Go

All the questions that you never thought to ask
Always thinking he was there to watch your back
Years that you've wasted... gone

Always in the name of loyalty and faith
All the memories you wish you had not made
Tears, as you taste them, each one a piece of your soul
So cold, as the truth starts to unfold

One voice calling, one tear falling
They echo in emptiness
One bridge burning, last page turning
Don't waste time on regrets

One world's ending, broken, bending
It's time to walk out that door
And to savor the taste of good-bye
It's time for the letting go

Up till now the road was straight, and smooth, and clear
All at once the path's completely disappeared
Clouds bring the darkness down

Here's a candle and a match to help you on
Till the storm is done, and then you're on your own
A shoulder to lean on, just till you're back on your feet,
Till you're free... till that old smile starts to show

One voice calling, one tear falling
They echo in emptiness
One bridge burning, last page turning
Don't waste time on regrets

One heart breaking, rude awakening
Some things you just can't control
One world's ending, broken, bending
It's time to walk out that door
And to savor the taste of good-bye
It's time for the letting go
It's time for the letting go
