Let Go
Kristine Mirelle Lyrics

Every time I found the words to say
Whenever I tried to communicate with you

What I thought would make things okay
The things I believed would fix our problems

I kept it all inside
I bottled up my feelings

Slowly drowning in my pride
My ego prevented me from admitting fault and seeking reconciliation

I never could admit my own mistakes
I refused to own up to my errors

Some how I thought things would fall into place
I had unrealistic expectations of a happy ending

And I made a change too late
I took too long to make the necessary adjustments

Here, past all the lights
In this dark place

Where everything's clear
Where my situation is crystal clear

Nothing seems to change
Despite having a new awareness of my mistakes, nothing is getting better

How I love you and now
I have intense feelings for you and yet

You're gonna leave
You are going to abandon me

I'm just slowly dying here inside
I am in deep emotional pain

Trying to let go
Attempting to move on from our relationship

Maybe I just thought I had you here
Perhaps I assumed you would never leave me

I thought that you would not go anywhere
I believed that you would be by my side forever

I abused my position and I didn't care
I took advantage of my power and acted selfishly

And now that you no longer turn to me
You are no longer seeking my support

And it seems that you got over me
You have moved on from our relationship

I can hardly breathe
I am struggling to cope

You no longer need me
You do not rely on me any longer

I'm just sorry I found out late but all the choices I made
I regret not recognizing my faults sooner and my decisions were only self-serving

I thought of me
I only considered my own interests

And not how it'd be to watch you walk away
I did not think of the pain of losing you

I know I'll never make it right but every day I try
I know I cannot fix things but I am putting forth an effort

In hopes you might come back you're where my heart's at
I desire for our relationship to be restored as you hold a special place in my heart

I have to find a way
I need to discover a way to move on and find peace within myself

And everytime I think of you
Whenever I remember our relationship

It's hard for me to think of what I can do
I struggle to understand how to proceed

I used to have you here beside me
I recall when we were together and enjoyed each other's company

I just want you here beside me baby
I desire for us to be reunited

How can the sun keep shinin'
I do not understand how life is continuing despite my pain and suffering

When my whole body's cryin
My emotions are overwhelming me

I know I never told you why
I recognize that I did not effectively communicate my love for you

I need you in my life
I am aware that you are an essential part of my wellbeing
