Two hands intertwined
Your soft green eyes look into mine
Molding clay, we were young
Stuck in time in a place now gone
Becoming one, your lips proceed
To sculpt an image within me
If I could hold you one last time
I’d carve your memory in my mind
But all I have is a template
A blueprint created for me
Searching endlessly for faces
But no one seems to fit in
Letting go is not easy
Letting go is not easy
Reluctantly, I decide to meet
A friendly stranger, could this be
The embodiment of every dream
That I have had since you left me?
Under certain light, you both look alike
I was so convinced I had chosen right
But once the features were revealed
I knew that this could not be real
No, no, no, no
No, no, no, no
Letting go is not easy
Letting go is not easy
Letting go is not easy
Letting go is not easy
Under certain light, you both look alike
I was so convinced I had chosen right
But once the features were revealed
I knew that this could not be real
