Lyrics
When I’m broken down
The scenes are clashing all around
After tasting you
After feeling you
New light of spring
With trees alight and ascending
And I found love
I vowed to never let it go again
When our love broke the speed of sound
The words and feelings raged unbound
And I asked you to stay
We laid to rest our fears and doubt
No problem letting out hearts out
But I wasted my time — I had to let you go
We’re autumn bound
The summer sunsets danced around
We feel renewed
We see the truth
Over longer days
Where our inner child came to play
Where I found love
And held on to it tight, my friend
When I bought you this diamond ring
Home became more than a place for things
I came to peace from empty dark
But now I’m on my own
I had to let you go
(Did You have to let me linger
Wrapped around your finger)
With the season change
Unable to escape the rain
Still feeling you
Still broke by you
In winter now
And dreams are crashing all around
From when I found love
Will I ever let it in again?
