[Verse 1] You called it forever, I called it a warning We kept every window shut through the morning I wanted an answer, you wanted the distance Some things disappear when you force their existence We were a wildfire, beautiful danger I knew every heartbeat, now you’re a stranger And maybe I loved you more than I knew how But I don’t need to know where you’re going now [Pre-Chorus] I used to wait for your headlights Like they could bring me home Now I can sleep through the midnight Knowing I’m better alone [Chorus] So I let you go, let you go Out where the wild wind blows I don’t need your love to save me I don’t need to follow I let you go, let you go Somewhere I’ll never know There was a time I’d break to keep you Now I just let you go [Post-Chorus] Ooh, I let you go Ooh, I let you go No, I don’t need to follow I just let you go [Verse 2] The room isn’t empty, it’s finally quiet Your ghost used to live here, I don’t hear it tonight I’m opening curtains, I’m changing the colors Funny how endings can look like another Beginning is waiting under the wreckage No more decoding the weight of your message I thought losing you would mean losing me too Now every reflection is clearer without you [Pre-Chorus] I used to wait for your headlights Like they could bring me home Now I can dance through the midnight Knowing I’m better alone [Chorus] So I let you go, let you go Out where the wild wind blows I don’t need your love to save me I don’t need to follow I let you go, let you go Somewhere I’ll never know There was a time I’d break to keep you Now I just let you go [Bridge] No more running back No more almost us No more making gold Out of what was dust If I see your face Somewhere down the road I won’t lose my way I already know I already know I already know [Final Chorus] I let you go, let you go Out where the wild wind blows You don’t have to turn around now I don’t need you to I let you go, let you go And finally I know Love doesn’t always mean forever Sometimes love lets go [Outro] Ooh, I let you go Ooh, I let you go There was a time I’d break to keep you Now I just let you go After the rain, after the hurt After the words we couldn’t undo I thought the ending would leave me in darkness But look at the sky After the blue
