The One You Should've Let Go

(album: The Lone Bellow - 2013)

Come on, my love
I'm not the one that you were looking for
I'm not the shoulder you should cry on
I am the one you should've let go
[x2]

Out my door, on the street
You will walk next to me
Through the cold, through the heat
Calm me down in my sleep
Grab my arm, whisper deep
I'm alone when I think
You're my soul, we're in sync
I'm your crutch

Come on, my love
I'm not the one that you were looking for
I'm not the shoulder you should cry on
I am the one you should've let go
[x2]

Sit by you, city bus
City streets, city crushed
All my songs, all my dreams
Yeah, I ponder what you think of me
As you sit, do you pray
Do you wish for a break
All my promises made
I'm your crutch

Come on, my love
I'm not the one that you were looking for
I'm not the shoulder you should cry on
I am the one you should've let go
[x2]

I will work my hands till they bleed
So my little babies can sleep
And all of the plans that we made
Fall just like a rose on a grave
[x2]

Come on, my love
I'm not the one that you were looking for
I'm not the shoulder you should cry on
I am the one you should've let go
[x2]

I am the one you should've let go
I am the one you should've let go
