Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Every time it gets too close, I feel my chest get tight
Turn “forever” to a ghost, fade out into the night
She said she needed solid ground, I kept drifting slow
Truth is I ain’t good at holding on, just good at letting go
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s not that I don’t feel it
I just never know how to keep it
[Chorus]
I’m good at letting go, like smoke out the window
Like a midnight dream fading off the radio
I can hold a heart, but I can’t make it stay
Guess I’m wired to watch the best things slip away
Yeah, if leaving was a skill, I’d be a pro
I’m good at letting go
[Verse 2]
I’ve burned bridges, lit ‘em fast, watched the ash still glow
Every name I carved in stone, the rain washed it low
She wanted reasons, I just gave her show
Another notch upon the list of letting go
[Pre-Chorus]
It’s not that I don’t feel it
I just never know how to keep it
[Chorus]
I’m good at letting go, like smoke out the window
Like a midnight dream fading off the radio
I can hold a heart, but I can’t make it stay
Guess I’m wired to watch the best things slip away
Yeah, if leaving was a skill, I’d be a pro
I’m good at letting go
[Bridge]
Maybe someday I’ll stay, maybe someday I’ll fight
But tonight I’m driving on, tail lights bleeding into night
[Final Chorus]
I’m good at letting go, like smoke out the window
Like a midnight dream fading off the radio
I can hold a heart, but I can’t make it stay
Guess I’m wired to watch the best things slip away
Yeah, if leaving was a skill, I’d be a pro
I’m good at letting go
[Outro]
Yeah, I’m good at letting go…
