[Instrumental][Intro — Vocal 1: soft, intimate, airy] I kept a light on in the room For something I knew wasn't coming soon Held on tight to what we knew Till holding on meant losing you [Verse 1 — Vocal 1: emotional, restrained, melodic] Every road we took still leads me back To the place where everything we had went off track I spent so long trying to make it stay I never learned that love can change [Chorus — Vocal 1: big, soaring, anthemic] 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 Sometimes letting go is how we learn to walk [Drop — instrumental / vocal chops] [Verse 2 — Vocal 1: warmer, more hopeful, still emotional] Now every morning feels a little less heavy I'm not searching for a sign to tell me I'm ready What we were 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 I can miss you and still move ahead Carry the love without carrying the regret [Chorus — Vocal 1: bigger, soaring, layered] 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 [Drop — instrumental / vocal chops] [Outro — Vocal 1: soft, emotional, fading] I won't forget I won't go back I'll keep the good And leave the rest When we let go... We finally breathe.
