How do you tell someone you're letting go

I wish that I could tell you

But you're asking me things that I don't know

I wish that I could tell you

The words that I would say

Sound as empty as the way

I feel inside

While the silence in-between

Tells me everything that you deny

I don't know how to help you

I wish that I could tell you

How to tell me goodbye



I don't know how you leave it all behind

I wish that I could tell you

Is it true a heart heals itself with time

I wish that I could tell you

How do you choose

Do you hurt 'em with the truth or with a lie

Where do you go to find courage

You know I could never find

I don't know how to help you

I wish that I could tell you

How to tell me goodbye

Where do you turn, where do you go

When you've finally reached the end of the road

How do you say it I just don't know

When it comes to leaving you're on your own

How do you tell someone you're letting go

I wish that I could tell you

I wish that I could tell you
