[Verse 1] I kept the light on in the room For something I knew was coming soon [Pre-Chorus] Held on tight to what we knew To holding out then losing you [Chorus] Every road we took still leads me back To the place where everything went off track When off track, I spent so long trying to make it stay I never learned that love can't change When we let go, we don't disappear When we let go, the road gets clear Maybe losing you was how I found The part of me I left underground And I don't know where this goes I only know I can't stay low When we let go, we don't lose it all Sometimes letting go is how we learn to walk [Verse 2] Now every morning feels a little less heavy or not Searching for a sign to tell me I'm ready What still matters, I won't deny But I don't need to hold it just to keep it alive There's a strange kind of peace in an open door When you stop asking what you were fighting for Can miss you and still move ahead Carry the love without carrying the regret [Chorus] When we let go, we don't disappear When we let go, the road gets clear Maybe losing you was how I found The part of me I left underground And I don't know where this goes I only know I can't stay low When we let go, we don't lose it all Sometimes letting go is how we learn to walk [Outro] I won't forget I won't go back I'll keep the gold and be the rest When we let go We finally breathe
