Katie Powderly Lyrics
Let Me Go Lyrics
Good morning says the equinox
As thunder wakes me before my alarm clocks
Burrow into bed
Deeply as I'm able
Make my coffee all alone
Can't stop looking at my telephone
I miss his handwriting
In the crossword on the table
There are ghosts in these rooms
And it'll be my doom
If I meet one face to face
I'm haunted by the echo of his boots down my front stairwell
The doorknob turns and my stomach churns
But it's never him returning
I hallucinate the sound
Of tables, turning
Chorus
So let me go
Let me go
I've got to go
I've got to go
Just because I have to leave you
Doesn't mean that I don't love you
It seems like everything I had here
One by one just disappeared
You say that once upon a time
I'd crack a smile
That there's proof I used to laugh
But those are memories in old photographs
Things haven't seemed
Very funny for a while
You think I'd learn from my mistakes
Wonder how many times it takes
Before I shed this skin and fly
So far from here
Things will grow so small below me
In each new town no one will know me
And everyone from here
Will think I just disappeared
Chorus
So let me go
Let me go
I've got to go
I've got to go
I've got to go
I've got to go (but you say please don't go)
Just because I have to leave you
Doesn't mean that I don't love you
