Hold me tight
But just for tonight
And not as tight as before
We're not that close anymore

As least not in that way
We've drifted further apart
With each day

We have waited it out
Just to see
If we could love one another casually

But I've been a good friend to you
I've always been there for you

You say you don't know
Where did the people we used to be go
You say you don't understand
What ever made made me let go of your hand
But you never asked me to stay, and
If you wanted me to
You did not say
Now for old times sake
Go ahead and repeat that mistake

Cause the moment is past now
I've stopped counting the days somehow

Let it be what it is
Though we never intended
For it to turn into this
We had something good, it did not last
Let's not be constantly re-living the past
I have nothing but love for you
Though you've often questioned
How that could be true
Well you better
Start believing me
If you ever wish to see yourself free

From this long and drawn-out process of letting go
All this grief and regret has kept your spirit low
