Driving home they were playing that song
Take me back to where we belong
Now and then I stumble but I think you agree
Each day I'm learning to take care of me

And there's the reason why I know
But nobody tells you 'bout the letting go
There's the reason why I know
But nobody tells you 'bout the letting go

Maybe it's the rain we've been having recently
Something about the rain keeps reminding me
But these days I'm sure you'd be surprised
I'm a different person you'd hardly recognize

And there's the reason why I know
But nobody tells you 'bout the letting go
There's the reason why I know
But nobody told me 'bout the letting go

Take my fears away, lift me high
High above the sky
I'm out here on a limb
Like a bird that's forgotten how to fly

Maybe it's the rain or should I blame the snow
Maybe it's every tiny little thing that reminds me of you
Maybe this hurt in my heart will take time to go
But at least I know, at least I know
And there's the reason why I know
'Cause nobody told me 'bout the letting go
And there's the reason why I know
But the letting go, the letting go

Forget the reasons, they don't soften the blow
Nobody told me 'bout the letting go
The letting go
