Let Go

I see you holding on to what we had,
But it's time to let go, don't be sad.
Put the dress away, it's just a memory,
Of a love that wasn't meant to be.
Burn the picture, let the flames rise,
Erase the past, no more lies.
Throw away the makeup in the drawer,
It's time to close this chapter, forevermore.
Put the dress away, let it fade,
Burn the picture, let the ashes cascade.
Throw away the makeup, it's time to move on,
Our love is gone, it's time to be strong.
You hold onto things that remind you of me,
But it's time to set yourself free.
Put the dress away, it's just a sign,
Of a love that couldn't stand the test of time.
Burn the picture, let the flames rise,
Erase the past, no more lies.
Throw away the makeup in the drawer,
It's time to close this chapter, forevermore.
Put the dress away, let it fade,
Burn the picture, let the ashes cascade.
Throw away the makeup, it's time to move on,
Our love is gone, it's time to be strong.
In the fire, let the memories burn,
In the ashes, there's a lesson to learn.
Put the dress away, let the past go,
It's time to find a new path to follow.
Put the dress away, let it fade,
Burn the picture, let the ashes cascade.
Throw away the makeup, it's time to move on,
Our love is gone, it's time to be strong.
Put the dress away, and let it be,
Burn the picture, set yourself free.
Throw away the makeup, and close the door,
It's time to move forward, forevermore.
