Letting Go

Yesterday I had you wrapped up in my arms.
Today I watched as you walked out of my life and all I could do was stare.
Tomorrow I know will be hell because I don't have you there with me.
Makes me wonder if letting you go was the right thing to do.

I watch as you smile and laugh.
Watch how you shut the pain out.
Watch as you die inside everytime.
All I can is watch because I let you go.

Letting you go was possibly the worst things.
But as they say if it was meant to be it'll find it's way back to you.
Baby girl I'm waiting for the day you run back into my arms.
Where your demons won't haunt you.

All I can do is go back on what used to be.
Open up my drawers and take out memories.
Only to regret my actions later.
Baby girl please came back home.

Tears fall along with words that should've been spoken.
Fears seem to grown stronger as I grow weaker.
Sometimes I sit by myself and wonder if letting go was a good thing.
But I see you and I know that I made a huge mistake.
I broke my promise baby girl forgive me.
Because I let you go..........
