Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We were just little kids, we were ambiguous
My crush was serious, it's crazy how
As we were growing up I could just set you up
But it just wasn't love, I guess the stars
Never aligned for us, life just snuck up on us
You got a girlfriend and stuff
Feelin's all bottled up
Hide 'em in this song
Took the key and lock it up
But when I see you again
No, I can't even pretend
[Verse 2]
It's always you I go back to
I know it's danger
It's always you my heart runs to
But I'm a stranger
Baby, what happened?  What am I to do?
Wanna move on, but I'm scared of losing you
I can't seem to master
The art of letting you go
No, I can't seem to master
The art of letting you go
[Verse 3]
Try not to dwell on it
But sometimes I can't help it
So I paint pictures with it
Even when I was always on the road
I was always doin' shows
Yeah, my life was never slow
Don't you know?
Your love stayed in the back of my head
In a house full of memories is where I lived
Right when I came home, oh no, there I go
Saw you again and I can't even pretend
[Verse 4]
It's always you I go back to
I know it's danger
It's always you my heart runs to
But I'm a stranger
Baby, what happened? What am I to do?
Wanna move on, but I'm scared of losing you
I can't seem to master
The art of letting you go
No, I can't seem to master
The art of letting you go
[Verse 5]
Not letting you go
It's just the art of letting you go
[Verse 6]
All of me, I give you everything
If you could only see
How much you mean to me
I know you'll always be the one
That stays with me, haunting me
And maybe I'll never know (Maybe I'll never know)
Just how to let you go
[Verse 7]
Ooh, it's always you I go back to
I know it's danger
It's always you my heart runs to
But I'm a stranger, oh yeah
Baby, what happened? What am I to do?
Wanna move on, but I'm scared of losing you
I can't seem to master
The art of letting you go
No, I can't seem to master
The art of letting you go
[Verse 8]
I'm wishing that I could be happy with you
(Just the art of letting you go)
With you, with you, with you
