lyrics

Simple melodies run through my mind
I put them on paper but they erase with time
These words they just can’t describe
What’s been captured by the eyes and mind

But that’s okay anyway, I’m rising slow
The curtains part closed only preview what the day will show
Look above now, the ceiling stars, they still glow
No need for jealousies I’ve got all I need to know

A sea of blankets holds us down…
While all our hard times drown
And we don’t fight to let them go…
No, no, no
Let them go, let them go

So we remain
And begin to understand
You look up and count the stars
I look down and count the sand

But we lose track all too fast
As we lose track of the tide
As we lose track of it all
And sail away

A sea of blankets holds us down…
While all our hard times drown
And we don’t fight to let them go…
No, no, no
Let them go, let them go

Bridge:
Let them go
Let them go
Go, gooooo

Final Chorus
