I just came back to life. I just took my first breath. I hadn’t realized that I was even dead. Oh, I’m not the same sitting here next to you, and I don't know what to do. Oh, it started in my limbs. I felt it slowly moving through, and now it’s finally setting in that this isn’t what I was meant to do. It’s time to let you go. Baby, it’s time to let you go. I was waiting for us to change. I was waiting for us to grow, but I’ve lost hope that things will ever flow I’m gonna claim my voice; step into a way to heal this gap between what I say and how I feel. I’ve opened up my eyes, and I finally see the truth - that i’ve wasted so much time and baby I’ve got shit to do. It’s time to let you go. Baby, it’s time to let you go. I think I knew it all along, saw little signs along the way. and if it’s just a matter of time, then baby I gotta tell you straight: It’s time to let you go. Baby it’s time to let you go. Oh it’s time - it’s time to let you go.

We stood on different ground, our love left out to fade The earth around our feet, it gave away I learned to hide you in the corners of my mind And as I drift away to sleep, You visit in the night Oh it seems in my dreams I’m betrayed Brick by brick that I have laid to try and keep you away I can’t make my feelings disintegrate, you will simply not erase I grow my roots down in the wake of our decay, our string cut short, the loose ends left to fray I’ve buried feelings for you, I tell myself we’re through But when I fall asleep at night, my dreams unearth the truth oh it seems, in my dreams I'm betrayed Brick by brick that i have laid, to try and keep you away I can't make my feelings disintegrate you will simply not erase When I dream of you and I It doesn’t seem like you ever left my life These hidden thoughts exposing how I feel The morning breaks and leaves me grasping for what’s real oh it seems, in my dreams I'm betrayed Brick by brick that i have laid, to try and keep you away I can't make my feelings disintegrate you will simply not erase Brick by brick that I have laid To try and keep you away You will simply not erase oh it seems, in my dreams I'm betrayed Brick by brick that i have laid, to try and keep you away I can't make my feelings disintegrate you will simply not erase

I just scratch my head and look sideways cause i don’t have directions to our life maze oh babe well I don’t got the answers but I got moves and I’ll dance around these questions you have cause I got no clue So I’ll shuffle to the left, and I’ll hustle to the right We’ll be dancing at it step by step and through the night so let’s not sweat the small stuff, cause that’s not what life’s about I just need you by my side while we figure this out Shall we go left of right choose right or wrong everyone else’s advise can only last so long Oh babe well I don’t got the answers but I got moves and I’ll dance around these questions you have cause I have no clue So I’ll shuffle to the left, and I’ll hustle to the right We’ll be dancing at it step by step and through the night so let’s not sweat the small stuff, cause that’s not what life’s about I just need you by my side while we figure this out

These satin sheets You don't know what they do to me These satin sheets, 1000 thread count can't be beat Sometimes I waste my day away sleeping in my satin sheets all day I don't know what else that I can say You're more than welcome to come and play My sheets, aren't they shiny Get your hands off my heiny And leave me with my satin sheets These cotton sheets You don't know what they do to me These cotton sheets, they really feel so very neat Come on and let's get cozy Feel free to rub my toesies You make my cheeks so rosy We have all day so mosey My sheets, oh they’re magnificent my troubles, insignificant when I’m within my cotton sheets These flannel sheets You don't know what they do to me These flannel sheets, look at my tray of deli meats Sometimes in bed, I'm hungry Don’t take my goodies from me My sheets feel so yummy I can’t sleep they're so crumby My sheets oh they're incredible Stop licking, they're not edible And leave me with my flannel sheets

There’s just no room for your books on the shelves anymore They’re all dusty and taking up way too much space And it’s time they just got ignored Please take your mixed cds, i left them next to your door Next to your sweater, your watch, and your letters I don’t know what I saved them for I don’t want them, these memories of you Please take your stuff, cause well I’ve had enough I don’t wanna love you When I wake up in the morning I hate to remember you’re not there Then I walk to the kitchen and open the cupboards Realize they’ve gone bare I don’t want them, these memories of you Please take your stuff, cause well I’ve had enough I don’t wanna love you Why won’t these memories fade away They haunt me every single day I miss the smell of your skin You used to hold me so tight It felt so right But now you’ve worn my heart out thin I don’t want them, these memories of you Please take your stuff, cause well I’ve had enough I don’t wanna love you

Even now when I see you, I feel through down through my limbs I’m ignited by memories of touching your lips. I can’t help when I’m near you - you just pull me right in. It’s like nobody else exists. Oh, now something beckons me closer to that border between our skin. We both know how easy it is to do now we’ve broken each other in. On and on through the evenings and through that all that I do, I go days, even weeks, even months without you. And I’m good, and I’m happy, and I think that I’m through oh but when you appear I’m doomed. Oh, now something beckons me closer to that border between our skin. We both know how easy it is to do now we’ve broken each other in.
