Let Him

I let him kiss me at a party

I let him walk me home

Let him listen to my music

Let him laugh at all my jokes

Let him take me out to dinner

And lead me to my room

Let him hold me every night

I let him always leave too soon

Oh, I let him meet my family

I let him pet my dog

And fly me out to Athens and say I was the one, oh

I let him plan our future

I let him share a home

And I watched him as his heart turned to stone

So, when he wanted to leave and break me in pieces

I just let him, ooh

When he wanted to see his life without me in it

I just let him, ooh

Oh, I just let him

I let him tell me that he's tired, and focus more on work

Let his eyes grow, oh, so distant, let him get up from desert

Let him make me feel so helpless, like it was all my fault

Oh, I took all of his problems

But I couldn't fix it all

So, when he wanted to leave and break me in pieces

I just let him, ooh

When he wanted to see his life without me in it

I just let him, ooh

Oh, I just let him

I let him miss me when his sure thing's not texting him back

His mom's asking him how I've been

Same dead end job, same high school friends

Still stalk me on the internet

I'm just some girl he used to know

His friends buy tickets to my show

Let him miss me everywhere he goes

So, if he wanted to see his life without me in it

I just let him, ooh
