Verso 1: He's what I want But I'm not what he needs He needs to wake up And look in the mirror And like just what he sees Pré-Refrão And it kills me That I have to leave To watch him go get better Cuz I'd set myself on fire If it meant he'd come back after Because I love him I love him That's why I'll let him go I love him And I want him But we both need time to grow And if the world was kind I could make him stay It pains me to think of the girl Who gets to trace his veins I love him But it's better off this way Verso 1: It was the best time And he was all mine And I never wanna leave We'd stay up all night And whe he drifts off I can't help but watch him sleep Pré-Refrão Oh he's so beautiful And I tell him all the time I'd never said words more true I'd stand by them until I die Oh I love him I love him That's why I'll let him go I love him And I want him But we both need time to grow And if the world was kind I could make him stay It pains me to think of the girl who gets to trace his veins I love him But it's better off this way Ponte: Mmmmmmhhmm Mmhhm Hmmmmmm I love him I love him So I have to let him go I love him And I want him I only hope he finds his growth And if the world was kind He would wanna stay And if theres a next one I hope that she can love him the same I don't know It doesn't feel better off this way Mmmhhmmm I can only pray
