Letra
Hasn't anybody ever told you to not get too attached
That the only way for you to keep love is to let it go, in fact
Even though we tend to want to squeeze when
When we feel it slipping through our fingers like the time we get, but don't
Get back. Haven't you ever heard it be said
The tighter that you try to hold the sand
The tighter... the tighter
The quicker that it will slip through your hands
And there will go all your plans
Did you not come to see that when you fixated only on grievances
All that you missed
This puzzle ain't about fitting every piece in. It's making your peace with
Where they may land
The tighter that you try to hold the sand
The tighter... the tighter
The quicker that it will slip through your hands
And there will go all your plans
The harder that you focus on each leaf
The harder... the harder
The more you miss the forest for trees
And find yourself lost at sea
The tighter that you try to hold onto something
The quicker it's inclined to quit on you darling
The harder that you focus on each leaf of it
The more you miss the forest you really covet
The tighter that you try to hold the sand
The tighter... the tighter
The quicker that it will slip through your hands
And there will go all your plans
The harder that you focus on each leaf
The harder... the harder
The more you miss the forest for trees
And find yourself lost at sea
