David Hayder - Let You Go lyrics

[Intro] [Hook] I let you go so reluctantly, but I could still hear your lazy symphony... [Verse 1] Have you ever thought about the one that got away? Thinking of what could've been, and regret it to this day? Let me take you through my memories before it starts to fade... It all started in high school, back in 12th grade The years were boring, until I met this Puerto Rican chick She had the face of a model and her a** was so thick Her hair had intricate designs paired with beautiful eyes She had the guys in the cla** staring at her nice thighs And she sat beside me in Biology cla** After we chatted for a bit, it was mythology cla** The thoughts that I had were sick, they were driving me mad Wanted to mix up our genes in Biology labs She said that she was from New Jersey and she had a lot of enemies But that didn't matter, she was more than a friend to me But I didn't tell her, that would mess things up I had a good thing going but the act was getting tough [Hook] I let you go so reluctantly, but I could still hear your lazy symphony... I let you go so reluctantly, but I could still hear your lazy symphony... [Verse 2] Two months pa**ing by, I knew I had to make a move The other guys in the cla** wanted some of her too So I asked the scary question and waited in silence... She thought about it like it wasn't even part of her knowledge After that, she said that her boyfriend was a soldier Crushed by the answer, but I had to get some closure Story of my life, and that moment was the poster Always hiding how I felt was getting to be torture It didn't stop there, she had more news for me She said, that she was moving to Florida in two weeks Calculated in my mind, that was the week before my birthday I swore this always happened to me, someone must have cursed me Now I had to bury what was always been inside of me But it was so alive and raw, I couldn't let it die in peace The week before you left, I had to let you know That the time we spent together were the best and let you go [Hook] [Breakdown] [Hook]
