Let You Go Lyrics - Singles - Kyle Neal

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
