VERSE
I’m letting go of you slowly
I didn’t mean to
If we were close, for pictures only
Guess I didn’t need you

Like I thought I did
and the optimist in me would say
I’ll see you again
but I think I’m headed
A different way

i can count the ones
I love on one hand
You can’t hold everyone
I understand
On this ride called life
We try to get along
But the train goes faster
when some people just get off
It keeps moving on

An empty seat always gets taken
Lovely to meet you
Though I’m no good at conversation
I’ll see where it leads to

Keeping both arms crossed
Makes a good one harder
to find these days
And I wish you well
Even if you’re headed
a different way

on this ride called life
Never lasts too long
When the train goes faster
Let some people just get off
