It isn't so easy to just let go
to let the memories, happiness, and love just wash away...
Maybe I don't want to let go
because I love the love and the happiness and the memories
because they were with you

we weren't healthy enough to continue
but when people are sick they don't just give up on life
they get better and keep going
I don't want to let you go
because you make me happy

I know we didn't work well together in a relationship
but we work well in keeping each other afloat
I may have lost you as my other half
but I'm not giving up my best friend

Maybe it's easy to let go
to let the pain, sorrow, and even the love drift away...
But maybe you shouldn't let go
because the love was strong and the memories were fond
because they were ours

we may not have been healthy
but you don't just abandon the sick
didn't you want to see us get better?
I don't want to let you go
You made me happy

I know you think we didn't work well together
but even you know that we kept each other alive
I have lost you as my other half
but I'm not giving up on feeling whole again.
