Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I wanna meet tomorrow
Yesterday made me a fool today
I tried my best to follow
But you movin' too fast on your daddy long legs
[Verse 2]
You say I'm destined to live in stories
I can't let go of 2008
You say my nostalgia grows when don't you know
That the way you're proposing to say my name
[Verse 3]
I gotta let you go
I'm letting you know
I gotta let you go
Baby, now I know
[Verse 4]
You think about our ending
I think about when I met you, though
Dad says I'm just pretending
Said that I'm just scared that I'll end up alone
[Verse 5]
I walked around Hawaiian mazes
I didn't care I forgot my bra
'Cause the dragon teeth ain't worried
About letting go of the tightness
I hold on the rope like a soldier
[Verse 6]
I gotta let you go
I'm letting you know
I gotta let you go
Baby, now I know
[Verse 7]
I make myself believe that I can go
'Cause we been up and over then below
For heaven's sake, would you leave?
Shut the door, let me go
Let you know why
[Verse 8]
It's gonna take a minute to unfold
The way that I been feeling's over told
Telling me why you left and then complain
You're alone and I don't know why
But, babe, it was something 'bout the way you loved me
[Verse 9]
Now I don't know
Now I don't know me anymore
I'm letting go
And you don't have to tell me twice
And you should know
I never needed your advice
I shoulda known back then
Now I know it's right
[Verse 10]
I gotta let you go
I gotta let you go
I gotta let you go
I gotta let you go
