How  do you tell someone you're letting go
I  wish that I could tell you
But  you're asking me things that I don't know
I  wish that I could tell you
The  words that I would say
 Sound as empty  as the way you feel inside
While  the silence in between
Tells  me everything  that you deny
I  don't know how to help you
I  wish that I could tell you
How  to tell  me goodbye
I  don't know how you leave it all behind
I  wish that I could tell you
Is  it true a heart heals itself with time
I  wish that I could tell you
How  do you choose
 Do you hurt  'em with the truth or with a  lie
Where  do you go to find the courage
 You know I  could never  find
I  don't know how to help you
I  wish that I could tell you
How  to tell  me goodbye
Where  do you turn, where  do you go
When  you've finally reached the  end of the road
How  do you say it I  just don't know
When  it comes to leaving you're  on your own
How  do you tell someone you're letting go
I  wish that I could tell you
 Ohhhh,I wish  that I could tell you
