Just Enough To Let You Go

The sounds of good-bye begin to echo in my heart

and, in my silence, I stare into the night.

Do I love you?

I love you just enough to let you go.

Just enough to know that I will always miss you.

The shadows of yesterday creeps over me,

The music draws to a close,

The melodies echo how love once burned.

The sounds of dawn begins to fill my soul,

The music of hope, the dreams of tomorrow,

Are now but fading echoes

Playing within my empty soul.

The sounds of good-bye echo

And as I remember the shadow of your smile

My own tears begin to form.

The shadows of yesterday remind me of all I am,

All that I have become

Since the day you looked my way.

I dare not say how empty good-bye feels

Or how shallow life now seems.

The sounds of good-bye echoes in my soul.

I never said how much I needed someone

Or how I thought it was you.

The shadows of yesterday burns the memories

Of your eyes peering into my soul

Along the edges of my heart.

Do I love you?

I love you just enough to let you go.

Even if it is at the cost of my soul

The sound of good-bye lingers in the air

and now that I've finally learned how to say

I care

I've lost you

To the shadows of all our yesterday

And the tears we have tried to hide way

The sounds of dawn begins to fill my soul

And I must learn how to face it alone

For I loved you just enough

To let you go
