[Verse 1]
Hey, yeah
Are you with me?
Can you see me?
Or did I just mistake what's on your mind?
You're hesitating, am I right?
Now I've lost all sense of time
It always goes the same
Waving all your red flags in the wind
And I just ignored myself, it was fine
Now it keeps me up at night
[Pre-Chorus 1]
Shoulda taken the hint
Could've ended it there
Wasn't one to settle
But I just couldn't let go
[Chorus]
I shoulda let go
It's sad but it's true
I shoulda let go
Don't tell me it's worth it
Being alone, no, no
No other would do
I shoulda let go
[Verse 2]
Guess I rеally am the type
To talk about matters of thе heart
To anyone who will listen to me
Oh, I just can't escape my reasons
Just wanna leave 'em behind
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Can I take the heat?
Waiting endlessly
Wasn't one to settle
But I just couldn't let go
[Chorus]
I shoulda let go
It's sad but it's true
I shoulda let go
Don't tell me it's worth it
Being alone, no, no
No other would do
I shoulda let go
[Bridge]
Shoulda said goodbye
Shoulda said that I
Couldn't handle all this crying on my own
Couldn't take the heat
Waiting endlessly
Shoulda never stayed but I just couldn't let go
[Chorus]
I shoulda let go
It's sad but it's true
I shoulda let go
Don't tell me it's worth it
Being alone, no, no
No other would do
I shoulda let go
I shoulda let you go
[Post-Chorus]
I shoulda let go
I shoulda let go
Why should I ever let you go?
Being alone, no, no
Why did I ever even let you in?
I shoulda let go
[Outro]
I shoulda let go
Don't tell me it's worth it
Being alone, oh
It's something I wouldn't do if I knew what I knew now
How would I know?
How would I know?
