Let Go

It's getting harder and harder
To keep the secrets locked inside
I'd tell you if I were braver
But it's something I had to hide

Dozens of times I've called you up
Just to hear your voice on the phone
But smiles soon turn into tears
Because then I'd feel so alone

Whenever you had someone interesting
And you'd sing her a love song
I'd find myself dreaming
Hoping it wouldn't be long

And you'd realize how hard I've fallen
And how much in love I am
And you'd come to your senses and tell me
That it's me you love not them

So much for happy endings
So much for love
So much for dreams
And things we lose sight of

And just when I thought
That friendship wasn't bad at all
The floor gave way
And I started to fall

How could I love you
Then how could I try
To love yet to leave you
And to whisper my sad goodbye

Maybe someday I'll forget you
And maybe the sun would cease to shine
Maybe I can be happy too
When someone else calls you "mine"

Maybe I can learn to live
With a broken heart
If the happiness I can give
Is only when we're apart

Maybe then I've reached my rainbow
Maybe then I'd let you know
That someone loved you great enough
Enough to let you go
