[Verse 1: soft, close-mic female vocal] You left your shadow on my wall Still warm from yesterday I say your name to empty rooms And hear it fade away Tell me how to hold a door That's already closing Tell me how you let go When your hands keep hoping [Pre-Chorus: synth glide rising, bass pulling back] When do I let you go? When does the aching slow? Every road I take comes back to you [Drop: booming bass enters, rolling groove, bells] [Chorus: warm, open vocal, layered harmonies] How do I let you go When you're still in everything I know? Why do I have to let you go When my heart won't learn to say no? Hold me one more time, then I'll let go Let go, let go [Break: filtered bass, bells, bare pads] [Verse 2: intimate, slightly stronger] We built a home out of almost Stitched with maybe and soon I kept the light on for a ghost Dancing in an empty room If love is only staying Then why does leaving hurt this much? I'm learning that a goodbye Can still be a kind of love [Pre-Chorus: synth glide rising] Now I'm ready to let you go Not because I want to, but I know Some doors open only when they close [Final Drop: full bass, driving groove, glides and bells] [Chorus: layered, emotional, ad-libs] This is how I let you go Softly, like the final note I know I'll let you go, I'll let you go Though every part of me says no Thank you for the light, now I'll let go Let go, let go Let you go... [End]
