Letting Go

I'm afraid to look into your eyes

So wide you open, so deep you stare

Feels like you'll read me, all I hide inside

And what I feel for you. Never mind

You're untouched, like a bloom yet to unfold

So tender, so sacred, too rare to ever hold

It's certain you'll bring springtime to my soul

But I fear I'd bring the autumn and the cold

I'm letting go of you, of me, and the us that never was

I'm letting go of dreams, of hope, and what we never touched

I'm afraid to look into your eyes

So wide you open, so deep you stare

Feels like you'll read me, all I hide inside

And what I feel for you. Never mind

You're untouched, like a bloom yet to unfold

So tender, so sacred, too rare to ever hold

It's certain you'll bring springtime to my soul

But I fear I'd bring the autumn and the cold

I want to give you something true

But I see the harm I'd bring to you

You deserve more than I could be

So letting go sets both of us free

I'm letting go of you, of me, and the us that never was

I'm letting go, but a part of you still lingers in the dust
