Funny how the little things
Can stake a claim in memory
And cheat time to last a hundred years

I swore that I’d be strong enough
To drop my heart and pick it up
And make the great escape without a tear

So nieve

And I hold my breath a little too long
And you were quick to carry on
And I’m learning in the afterglow
It’s a long way
long way to letting go

Waiting on eventually
Where you’ll [bad word] my history
And I’ll begin to rebuild the wall

I’ll forget to mention you
And wish that you were lonely too
And never ache, missing your call

I’m so neive 

And I hold my breath a little too long
And you were quick to carry on
And I’m learning in the afterglow
It’s a long way
long way to letting go

Was looking easier ideally
And I falter at my hesitation’s end
Close my eyes as I begin the countdown,
Reach for breath, I’m counting down
But I hesitate at ten.

And I hold my breath a little too long
And you were quick to carry on
And I’m learning in the afterglow
It’s a long way
long way to letting go
