Let Her

You just walked into the quiet after the storm, yes

It's chillingly silent, and you sense that something's wrong

Hmmm, something's surely wrong

And you saw the letter, with the keys laying on the counter

But you know just what it means, and grab the phone to call her

Now is this another of her cruel jokes or

She made good those threats to finally leave you

Tears well up in your eyes which your worn-down nerves won't let you cry, and finally

Chorus:

She's gone, bye-bye, so long

Let her go

She's gone, bye-bye, so long now

Love goes on

Apartment stripped in silence

Still you hear each fighting, sobbing make up

And all those crazy ways you forgave each time she loved you

Now that you're all alone

You realize she filled your life with litter

Her kisses used to thrill

Now the aftertaste is bitter

With the memories from the mess you've endured when...

Chorus:

She's gone, bye-bye, so long

Let her go

She's gone, bye-bye, so long now

Love goes on
