Let You Go

(album: The Pierces - 2000)

Passion can be
As quiet as a whisper
In your head
Pain can be
So silent you won't even
Know it's there
If rage could be
So soft
I might stay here
With you
If you could see my heart
It might turn
Your eyes to blue

But I've gotta let you go
It's harder to learn than
It is to know
I wanna watch you fly
It's easier to hurt
Than to say goodbye
It's easier to hurt
Than to say goodbye

God is as good
As he is kind
As he is just
He knows just how I feel
Ashes to Ashes
Dust to Dust
But I want a bigger cup
This one won't hold enough
A love and painted heartache
And other fancy stuff

But I've gotta let you go
It's harder to learn than
It is to know
I wanna watch you fly
It's easier to hurt
Than to say goodbye
It's easier to hurt
Than to say goodbye

It's gonna hurt…
When I say goodbye…
