"Why Should I Let You Go" lyrics

Thought I had it figured out
Could've sworn I knew it all
Turns out when the chips were down
I knew nothing at all

Thought it's what I had to do
Thought it's who I had to be
Now I'm sitting in this room
Hoping you'll come back to me
You're an astral comet in my mind
My favorite kind of void in space and time

Tell me, why should I let you go
Face the seasons on my own?
Tell me, why should I let you go
Staring at the ceiling, burning holes
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh, this feeling, burning holes
Oh-oh, oh-oh

Oh, when you were in my bed
I could never get to sleep
Now that you're not there to hold
Oh, there's too much room for me
There's your photo on the wall
Another favorite memory
Here's to hoping that you'll fall into a hole that sends you back in time to me

Oh, baby, why
Tell me, why should I let you go
Face the seasons on my own?
Tell me, why should I let you go
Staring at the ceiling, burning holes
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh, this feeling, burning holes
Oh-oh, oh-oh

Ooh, so, I stay out too late, act like I am doing fine
But I'm looking for you, oh, in someone else's eyes
Oh, I stay out too late, act like I am doing fine
But I'm looking for you in someone else's eyes
You're an astral comet in my mind
Oh, my favorite kind of void in space and time

Tell me, why should I let you go
Face the seasons on my own?
Tell me, why should I let you go
Staring at the ceiling, burning holes
Oh-oh, oh-oh, oh, this feeling, burning holes
Oh-oh, oh-oh
Ooh-ooh
