[Intro] [Verse 1] I hold the pen above your name Trying to find the words to say I promised I would wish you well And let you go your separate way [Pre-Chorus] But every line I try to write Turns into tears I cannot hide How can I give my blessing now When all my pride is stripped inside [Chorus] I can't finish this goodbye The ink runs dry, the memories stay I want to say I’m happy now But my broken heart gets in the way Oh, I can't let you go today [Verse 2] I see his name beside your own It cuts me deeper than you know I meant to sign my soul away And let you build a new sweet home [Pre-Chorus] But every line I try to write Turns into tears I cannot hide How can I give my blessing now When all my pride is stripped inside [Chorus] I can't finish this goodbye The ink runs dry, the memories stay I want to say I’m happy now But my broken heart gets in the way Oh, I can't let you go today [Bridge] Maybe I'm a fool to stay Holding on to what was lost I tear the page and fall apart No matter what it's gonna cost [Chorus] I can't finish this goodbye (I can't say goodbye) The ink runs dry, the memories stay (They stay with me) I want to say I’m happy now But my broken heart gets in the way Oh, I can't let you go today [Outro] I can't sign my name No, I can't let you go (I can't let you go) I can't say goodbye (No no no) Forgive me baby (I can't let you go)
