Softly now,
just a whisper Fading echoes in the night
Tried to hold on,
but it's over Time to let go,
time to set things right
You were the fire,
burning so bright I was the shadow,
lost in your light
You said forever,
swore it was true But forever was never meant for me and you
You held my heart,
but you dropped it cold Love turned to dust,
stories untold
I gave you chances,
I gave you time But love ain't love when it's only mine
Took all the blame, stood in the rain
Hoping you'd change, but you stayed the same
Now I see clearly,
now I know Some things are better when you let them go
You played the game,
I played the fool Falling for words that were never true
Now all the echoes are fading fast No turning back,
we are done at last
Send my love to the one who stays Hope she mends your broken
ways We gotta release what's already gone No more ghosts,
we're moving on
Send my love to the dreams we lost Every flame comes with a cost
I won't chase what's slipped away No regrets,
no need to stay
Send my love to the stars above Not every heartache is built for love
We tried and fell,
now we know Some things heal when you let them go
Send my love,
but not my pain Learn to dance in the pouring rain
I won't look back,
I won't pretend This is goodbye,
this is the end
If you're ready, I'm already gone
If you're waiting, don't wait too long
If you're calling, I won't reply
If you're falling, I won't ask why
If you're hurting,
I wish you peace If you're lost,
may you find release
If you're dreaming, dream something new
If you're healing, a hope can do
I gave you love,
I gave you trust Now it's ashes, now it's dust
I gave you nights,
I gave you days But love shouldn't feel this way
I gave you time,
I gave you grace Now it's time to leave this place
I gave you me,
I gave you more Now I'm walking out the door
