Katie Powderly - Let Me Go lyrics

rate me

Good morning says the equinox

As thunder wakes me before my alarm clocks

Burrow into bed

Deeply as I'm able

Make my coffee all alone

Can't stop looking at my telephone

I miss his handwriting

In the crossword on the table

There are ghosts in these rooms

And it'll be my doom

If I meet one face to face

I'm haunted by the echo of his boots down my front stairwell

The doorknob turns and my stomach churns

But it's never him returning

I hallucinate the sound

Of tables, turning

Chorus

So let me go

Let me go

I've got to go

I've got to go

Just because I have to leave you

Doesn't mean that I don't love you

It seems like everything I had here

One by one just disappeared

You say that once upon a time

I'd crack a smile

That there's proof I used to laugh

But those are memories in old photographs

Things haven't seemed

Very funny for a while

You think I'd learn from my mistakes

Wonder how many times it takes

Before I shed this skin and fly

So far from here

Things will grow so small below me

In each new town no one will know me

And everyone from here

Will think I just disappeared

Chorus

So let me go

Let me go

I've got to go

I've got to go

I've got to go

I've got to go (but you say please don't go)

Just because I have to leave you

Doesn't mean that I don't love you
