Let You Go

lauren howard

Verse:

Maybe you could the power line

And I could be the crow

You could be the shitty weather

And I could be the leaves you blow

Pre-chorus:

You left me waiting by the water

Waiting for you to pass me by

I’d just sit and wait forever

Wait for your last goodbye

Chorus:

I won’t let you go

Verse:

You could be the rushing water

And I could be the damn you overflow

Maybe you could be the ringleader

And I could be your little show

Pre-chorus:

You left me waiting by the water

Waiting for you to pass me by

I’d just sit and wait forever

Wait for your last goodbye

Bridge:

Let you go

Let you fly

Let you feel

When you want to cry

Let you fall

Beneath your high

Lift you up

When you wanna die

Chorus:

I won’t let you go
