I'm Letting You Go

I'm letting you go
setting my heart free
living out my life
without a "you and me"

This is how it happened
from the very start
I didn't think you'd break it
so I gave you my whole heart

Lovingly I fell for you
too early and way too fast
probably I wouldn't have
if I knew it wouldn't last

You said we lost our connection
but I knew better than to say
I loved you the whole time
since the very beginning of May

Instead I said "That's okay,"
and "Yeah, I'll be your friend,"
but deep down I knew the truth:
that I never wanted it to end

Maybe we just weren't right
maybe we weren't meant to be
I guess that doesn't matter now
cause you're no longer with me

All I know is that it's over
it's done, we're through, good-bye
now I'm mending my heart
never again, over you, will I cry

I'm taking it all back
you are finally free
now I have some closure
it's over, you and me

I will always love you
I know, you know that's true
but now I'm letting you go
there's nothing left to do
