“I thought I could let you go
I thought that you could leave and know
The time we took would fade
But I’m colder than the bed where we lay

You let go if you like, I’ll hold on
Say no all you want, I’m not done
Baby, I promise you


Did you think I’d let you go?
That’s never happening and now you know
Take your time, I’ll wait
Regretting every last thing I said”
