Letting Go
Flatt Lonesome Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Do you ever think of me? Have I even crossed your mind?
Do you have any regrets of the life you left behind?
Did you even care for me or am I the one to blame?
Love is blind, it's hard to see that you're losing either way.

Wishing you could feel the same as you did so long ago.
Wondering if you ever will, maybe I should let it go.

Talk about you every day and wonder why you're not around.
I never know just what to say about the new love you found.
So I'll lie here in my tears, tread the rising of the Sun.
Looking back on all the years when I was your only one.

Wishing you could feel the same as you did so long ago.

Wondering if you ever will, maybe I should let it go.
Wondering if you ever will, I guess my heart will never know.
