Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You put your hands on, on my body and told me
Mmm, told me you were ready
For the big one, for the big jump
I'd be your last love, everlasting
You and me mmm, that was what you told me
I’m giving you up i've forgiven it allYou set me free
Send my love to your new lover
Treat her better
We've gotta let go of all of our ghosts
We both know we ain’t kids no more
Send my love to your new lover
Treat her better
We've gotta let go of all of our ghosts
We both know we ain't kids no more
I was too strong, you were trembling
You couldn't handle the hot heat rising
(rising) mmm, baby, I'm still rising
I was running, you were walking
You couldn't keep up, you were falling down
(down) mmm, there's only one way down
I'm giving you up i’ve forgiven it all
You set me free, oh
Send my love to your new lover
