When you said goodbye
But you just can't leave
When you hold so tight
That your hands they bleed

So take these lungs
'Cause you were my air
I keep breathing in and out
But you're not there

But we never think that we'll run out of time
Always believed we can keep it alive
Didn't know then you were everything
I'm haunted by all the words that I said
Waking up in a hospital bed
I didn't know then you were everything

When the time comes you gotta let it go

When the time comes you gotta let it go

Every star that lights up the sky
Will always burn the brightest as they die

But we never think that we'll run out of time
Always believed we can keep it alive
Didn't know then you were everything
I'm haunted by all the words that I said
Waking up in a hospital bed
I didn't know then you were everything

When the time comes you gotta let it go

When the time comes you gotta let it go

When the fire dies and there's no light
And I see you for the last time, I
I have to let it go
When I lose to the skyline
Can't follow you to the other side, I
I have to let it go

When the time comes you gotta let it go
When your whole life depends on these hands that you hold
When the time comes you gotta let it go
