Letting Go
My eyes start to water as I go through the past
I guess I've finally come to terms with myself
I can't go back in time
I can't change anything I've already done
Or ruined
I just have to let it all go
And thats exactly what I'm doing
I'm letting all the lost chances go
It's time I forget about past mistakes and broken promises
I'm throwing away the bad memories and making room for new ones
From now on I can walk around with a smile on my face
Knowing I won't let anything weigh me down anymore
I can stop dwelling on things I've done wrong
So I can focus on making things right in my life
This is for every boy I never kissed
Every word I never said
Every move I never made
Every chance I never took
I'm saying goodbye to all of those
I can promise myself that everything is over and done with
I'm letting go
I've held on to these tears for far too long
And they feel amazing falling down my face
My grip on the past is finally loosening
I can move on now
I can let go
And that's a good thing
It's over
It's done
This is for future songs in my life
It's for smiles and laughing
It's for hope
Hope that everything will be fine
As long as you are willing to let go
I'm tired of being tired
I'm done
I'm letting go
