In my eyes
You were like a garden reaching for the skies
But you just need another kind of atmosphere
For all your shoots and leaves to fully grow
But for a thousand days
It was either tumbleweeds or tidal waves
Why can't there be something somewhere in between
The answer to a riddle we don't know
Oh... we might never know
When to let it go
It ain't my place
But darling did you know that I adore your face
All the slight expressions that you always made
Right until the day you said goodbye
We embrace
The night just like the winter taking Autumn's place
Fill the fire up with all our summer dreams
And sink into that cold December night
Oh... we might never know
When to let it go
Content yourself
Down along your spine where you invent yourself
Taking all the time you need to feel the weight
Of never ending distance out in space
There it seems
Underneath the covers of our farthest dreams
We are birds that fly into a hurricane
And come at last into a better place
Oh... we might never know
When to let it go
Strings that tie
The paper to the package like the reasons why
We never should have acted like we were in love
'Cause we both knew the strings would finally break
Now I find
That love is so much more than a state of mind
But you think love ain't really all that hard to find
I don't know the gamble that you take
Oh... we might never know
When to let it go
