How do you tell someone you're letting go I wish that I could tell you But you're asking me things that I don't know I wish that I could tell you The words that I would say Sound as empty as the way you feel inside While the silence in between Tells me everything that you deny I don't know how to help you I wish that I could tell you How to tell me goodbye I don't know how you leave it all behind I wish that I could tell you Is it true a heart heals itself with time I wish that I could tell you How do you choose Do you hurt 'em with the truth or with a lie Where do you go to find the courage You know I could never find I don't know how to help you I wish that I could tell you How to tell me goodbye Where do you turn, where do you go When you've finally reached the end of the road How do you say it I just don't know When it comes to leaving you're on your own How do you tell someone you're letting go I wish that I could tell you I wish that I could tell you
