[Verse 1]

I've been thinking to myself

What if I'd been someone else

A thousand words which I never said

Thought I could change but I never did

Should have kept this to myself


[Chorus]

So what can I say to you?

What can I do to let you go? (What can I do to let you go?)

You know I'm no good for you

So why'd you let me get so close

Then leave me with your ghost


[Verse 2]

Your flaws ignored, my faults eclipsed

You breathed my soul in through your lips

I had it all but you wanted more

You said we'd last, had me so assured

So why'd we have to end like this?


[Chorus]

So what can I say to you?

What can I do to let you go? (What can I do to let you go?)

You know I'm no good for you

So why'd you let me get so close

Then leave me with your ghost


[Bridge]

You turned away

Before I knew you felt this way

And I can't help but wonder if I could have made you stay

And I won't pretend that you're not in my head again

'Cause I can't drown you out

No, I can't drown you out


[Chorus]

So what can I say to you?

What can I do to let you go? (What can I do to let you go?)

You know I'm no good for you

So why'd you let me get so close

Then leave me with your ghost


[Outro]

I've been lying to myself

Know you found somebody else

It's been a while, said I'm moving on

It still hurts that you're not alone

At least I know you're doing well
