[Verse 1]
Lots of downs but it's no sin
I have to face the fact, I cannot always win
I just think it's a little early
In between and all across
I believed in something, something bigger than us
I'm moving on now

[Pre-Chorus]
But I, I gotta stick with this
Wherever it leads
And I, I gotta stick with this
Whatever it is

[Chorus]
And I've been waiting, and I've been trying
We all need some space to grow
You know I've been down
And I've been begging, and I've been crying
It took a while but now I know
The hardest part is letting go

[Verse 2]
Lots of downs it's no surprise
But if you don't look up it all gets in your eyes
I don't think it's ever too early
The only thing we're leaving here
Is broken deadlines hearts and tears
But change is not a thing that I should fear
[Pre-Chorus]
But I, I gotta stick with this
Whatever it is

[Chorus]
And I've been waiting, and I've been trying
We all need some space to grow
You know I've been down
And I've been begging, and I've been crying
It took a while but now I know
The hardest part is letting go

[Bridge]
And now that it's over I can start again
I can start again

[Chorus]
And I've been waiting, and I've been trying
(Oh we're over the deadline
Oh "so long" is the deadline)
We all need some space to grow
You know I've been down
And I've been begging, and I've been crying
(I'm ready, I am all in
I'm flying, I'm not falling)
It took a while but now I know
The hardest part is letting go
[Outro]
Lots of downs but it's no sin
I have to face the fact, I cannot always win
I just think it's a little early
