If you love something set it free
Be selfless and let it go
If it comes back it's meant to be
If it comes back you'll know

If it stays gone it's happy
If it never returns it's free
Be glad for it
That it can find where it belongs

But what about what's left behind?
The soul of the one who lost
What is to become of them?
Losing what they love most

It's not a relief
The pain won't vanish
You've condemned yourself to a cage
Stuck behind bars that may never break

So if you love something set it free
But be wary of what you love
Because you may soon come to see
What you lost will never come back
