Letting Go

I can let go of a lot of things
the wrong you've done to me
all the crushing things you said
that gave the pain you couldn't see

I'll let go of  the disappointment
the false hopes you always gave
all the times you wouldn't call
cuz you knew I'd always cave

I'll let go of the arguments
that we never solved
all the stupid things that we'd ignore
cuz "love" was just involved

I'll let go of my anger
my sadness, and my pain
forgive you for everything
cuz my love for you is insane

Now the last step is much harder
but it's what I have to do
Along with all the other things,
I must let go of you
