I've got pictures and letters
And a few other things you've left behind
I'm surrounded by memories I can't erase from my mind
Yet I don't know where to start
Nobody said it would be so hard

How do I let go
How can I face this world alone
Now I'm holdin' on for dear life
But life won't let me, I know
So how do I let go

Do I run out and look for
Another someone just to hold
Or stay under the covers
Never come out until I'm old
I'll do whatever it takes
Somebody please just show me the way

How do I let go
How can I face this world alone
Now I'm holdin' on for dear life
But life won't let me, I know
So how do I let go

How do I break the ties
When they run straight from your soul to mine

How do I let go
How can I face this world alone
Now I'm holdin' on for dear life
But life won't let me, I know
So how do I let go

Oh how do I let go
