Learn To Let You Go

When I was eighteen, nobody loved me

Nobody ever asked for my time

No champagne moments, no love to fly to

No heat to warm family time

I hit the forest and I found a castle

And i met the others who were empty like me

A hand that touched me

Her words so freely

All thoughts of home were taking their leave

Oh, oh how did I learn to let you go

Oh, oh how did I learn to let you go

We’d spend our seconds dreaming of oceans

And I’d bathe those sea urchins every night

I heard them whisper about our secrets

And I knew they’d judge every action of mine

Oh, oh how did I learn to let you go

Oh, oh how did I learn to let you go

And if you die it wouldn’t change where I am

See I never lie, just found a home with these hands

I hear you weeping, my cousin’s grave

And I read your letters every night

I hear you calling but I hate listening

I’m never coming back to the light

Oh, oh how did I learn to let you go

Oh, oh how did I learn to let you go

Oh, oh how did I learn to let you go

Oh, oh how did I learn to let you go
