Let You Go

Last night was the last time we would ever speak.
I walked away from the best thing in my life, feeling so weak.

I left because I was scared of what the future might hold.
As I lay there, my life began to unfold.

We were no longer together because of me.
I need to be with you, but I can't let that be.

I'll ruin your life without trying.
Because I made you go, I fell asleep crying.

Feelings of fear and hopelessness filled my mind last night.
Am I honestly worth the fight?

You say that I'm worth it, but why?
Give it a few weeks and you'll be fine.
You'll find someone so much better.
I can't be with you anymore, this is why I'm writing this letter.

I'm cold-hearted and rude.
I constantly get in these bad moods.
I continue to push you away,
even though my heart is telling you to stay.

You are the greatest guy that I know.
I don't know if I can always be there for you, so I have to let you go.
I don't want to ruin your precious life.
Even now I cause you so much strife.

Imagine if you lived with me...
I would tear you apart.
Please do me a favor and break my heart.

I can't handle this anymore.
I'm sure you'll be happy to go back to the way your life was before.

Can't you see that I'm scared and lonely?
I believe that you're my one and only,
But because I love you so,
I have to give you up to someone who deserves you;
I have to let you go.
