Started like a spark, it blossomed

And you felt like it won't ever end

Had a day of your life when you were told that love is on the way

Time flew, pretty flowers wilted

Only thorns left, never been the same

(And everything just turned out too late)

Tension builds up, then it breaks, and it shakes, and people run away

(Hey, huh-ah-ah)

Hey

If you love me, can you let go of me?

As before you left me sinking slowly

And it's over, whatchu trying to prove?

Things happened, can't be changed by you

If you love me, will you please let me be?

So I can go back to being lonely

And it's over, whatchu trying to prove?

You should let me go now

I did not know much about you like I do now

'Cause you seemed kinda far away

And I was in bad shape when you neglected

'Cause you also had to save yourself

Only recently did I see the human side of you

When you accidentally swore at the car that cut in front of you

Sooner

Wish I had known it sooner

Only now have we cleared the air between us

Only now have I realized that you were a good person and sooner

Wish I had known it sooner

Only now have I found out why everything happened

And I should let it go for the better

Wish I had known it sooner

Before it was all over

Hey

Started like a spark, it blossomed

And you felt like it won't ever end

(And everything just turned out too late)

Had a day of your life when you were told that love is on the way

Time flew, pretty flowers wilted

Only thorns left, never been the same

(And everything just turned out too late)

Tension builds up, then it breaks, and it shakes, and people run away

(Hey, hey-ay-ay)

Hey

If you love me, can you let go of me?

As before you left me sinking slowly

And it's over, whatchu trying to prove?

Things happened, can't be changed by you

If you love me, will you please let me be?

So I can go back to being lonely

And it's over, whatchu trying to prove?

Things happened, can't be changed by you

And it's just... you

When it's over

It's already over

You

And it's just... you

When it's over
