Letting You Go

He picked up the phone right before it quit ringing

Stepped outside the bar as the band started playing Marina Del Rey

And he figured she'd sing

Can you pick something up on your way back home?

But the silence he heard from her end of the phone told him something was wrong

She said this won't take long

I just called to let you know I'm letting you go

On that trip with your friends on my birthday weekend up to Idaho

I thought it through, do what you wanna do

I'm used to being on my own

I just called to let you know I'm letting you go

He said, "Okay, now hang on just a minute

I pay my tab, call a cab and get in it

We can talk this out"

She said, "It's too late now"

I just called to let you know I'm letting you go

Wherever you please don't worry about me

I don't care anymore

Yeah, I thought it through at all, thanks to you

I'm used to being on my own

I just called to let you know I'm letting you go

So go on back inside and enjoy your time

I won't bother you anymore

I just called to let you know I'm letting you go

Yeah, I just called to let you know I'm letting you go
