Kyle Neal - Let You Go lyrics

I watched you pull the thread that hung below The hem of everything you'd grown to know You pulled it with a sigh Said everything must die I watched you pull the thread and let it go Our youth was spent desperate to see The things that lay just barely underneath The layers of our minds That fall away in time So we filled our little brains and tried to see I couldn't tell you where we were trying to go So I held your hand and figured that we'd know When we'd arrived At our chosen time I'd kiss your mouth, and I'd let you go Your voice was sweet and it didn't betray The words you used when you said you couldn't stay You said life was just a game That could never stay the same So I lit a smoke and watched you drive away I couldn't tell you where we were trying to go So I held your hand and figured that we'd know When we'd arrived At our chosen time I'd kiss your mouth, and I'd let you go And I held you in the back of my mind As my body felt the wrath of father time But as I slowly decay You'll never age a day Cause I held you in the back of my mind
