Verse 1
It's been about 5 years since we met, had no clue what you'd do to me
2 years since you left, after you had grew on me
8 months since you finally moved on and ruined me
And just a month ago you said you want nothing to do with me
But I did everything for you, maybe you've forgotten now
Heart is like an aircraft, you're the one who shot it down
Friends don't wanna hear about it, so that's why I jot it down
But you can bet that I can help anyone when I spot a frown
You made me empathetic, sympathetic
Used to walk around alone and tell myself I am pathetic
Cried in front of people that I barely knew, my brain was dead it
Didn't understand the pain, took me years to comprehend it
Until you said it
Told me that we'll never be together, told me you regret it
Made me think that I was wrong, so listen baby don't forget it
All my thoughts and dreams of you could ruin my life, but I won't let it!
(Chorus-Paige)
Because the minutes they pass and they turn into hours
And this dirt that you left, I will turn into flowers
But don't you dare, don't you dare, try to dig me up
Because it's time for me to let it go and give you up
It's time to give you up
Verse 2
You tell me that you love me still but you don't even show it
My pain you say you understand but you don't even know it
And I wonder why the door was opened, just so you could close it
I never left a note, but it was me who sent the roses
I wonder if you ever think about me like I think of you
Wonder if you ever dream about me like I dream of you
Hoping that you listen to every word that I sing for you
Knowing that you've moved on, but still I have a thing for you
I'm going down memory lane
And every time I take a trip, I swear it's never the same
Because I'm losing sight of memories I never ingrained
But here's some things that I won't forget, burned forever in my brain:
The day you told me that you loved me back with such a pretty laugh
Back when we would talk about how many babies we would have
Had me thinking that I was your first, and you were my last
Every day you hurt me gives me reason to forget the past
(Chorus-Paige)
Because the minutes they pass and they turn into hours
And this dirt that you left, I will turn into flowers
But don't you dare, don't you dare, try to dig me up
Because it's time for me to let it go and give you up
I said I'll give you up
Verse 3
You're flooding my mind with memories just let me go!
Why don't you get your face out of my brain it's time to let me grow
And if you truly never loved me back, it's time to let me know
Just tell me why you did it, I don't know what I did wrong!
I told you I was dead inside I told you I was broken
I told you that I'm losing breath, you knew that I was chokin'!
I opened up my heart for you, and still I leave it open
Cause I'm holding on and hopin' you'll remember we were golden
Now I'm chasing stars, hoping I could let you go
And where I'm headed is a mystery you'll never know
Triple C 1030, now I'm moving on
I'm seeing clearly now and everything's incredible
To my loyal fans that understand and feel the same way too
Say it with me proudly: I'm letting go of you
To all my fans I understand what you've been going through
Just say it with me: I'm forever letting go of you
(Chorus-Paige)
Because the minutes they pass and they turn into hours
And this dirt that you left, I will turn into flowers
But don't you dare, don't you dare, try to dig me up
Because it's time for me to let it go and give you up
I said I'll give you up
I said I'll give you up
