Tristan Prettyman Letting Go Lyrics

It wasn't always bad
You were so good to me
You always made me laugh
You swept me off my feet

Like a wave comes to the shorebreak
Like a cool breeze on a summer day
I would be crazy not to love you
Am I crazy still to love you?

And it's not what we want
Maybe it's what we need
Holding onto things that are tryin' to set us free
When it's harder to stay
Than it is to leave
Holdin' onto you holdin' onto me

So let me say this now
I never meant to let you down
Maybe that's the hardest part of lettin' go

And you always had my back
You saw the best in me
And when our hearts made one heartbeat
There was no limit to what love could be

But the fightin' leads to screamin'
And the screamin' leads to slammin'
Doors that won't open
How'd it get broken?
Same old story on repeat This isn't what I want for you
This isn't what I want for me

And it's not what we want
Maybe it's what we need
Holding onto things that are tryin' to set us free
When it's harder to stay
Than it is to leave
Holdin' onto you holdin' onto me

So let me say this now
I never meant to let you down
Maybe that's the hardest part of lettin' go

'Cause it wasn't always bad
But some things aren't meant to be

And it's not what we want
Maybe it's what we need
Holding onto things that are tryin' to set us free
When it's harder to stay
Than it is to leave
Holdin' onto you holdin' onto me

So let me say this now
I'd still love to be found
I never meant to let you down
Maybe that's the hardest part of lettin' go
Yeah, maybe that's the hardest part of lettin' go
