"Love In Letting Go" lyrics

Right time and place, but the wrong circumstances
Your heart was open, but my heart was damaged
My mama loved you, but yours wasn't sure
You knew just what you wanted, and it made me insecure
The leaving hurt us both
We were way less thorn than rose

There's love in letting go
Ain't no shame in coming close
You know it wasn't all worth nothing
If we didn't end up being something
You'll never be someone I wish I didn't know
There's love in letting go

Right time and place, but the wrong destination
Don't mean the miles on our journey were wasted
Maybe you'll never see me all dressed up in white
When I think about you, baby, maybe in another life

There's love in letting go
Ain't no shame in coming close
You know it wasn't all worth nothing
If we didn't end up being something
You'll never be someone I wish I didn't know
There's love in letting go

You'll always be my so close
And I'll always be your almost
Almost hurts like hell
I'll just be somebody in the story you tell
You'll always be my wish it didn't end
And I'll always be your "What could've been?"
Yeah, you could've been here right now
Instead of telling somebody how it didn't work out

There's love in letting go
Ain't no shame in coming close
You know it wasn't all worth nothing
If we didn't end up being something
You'll never be someone I wish I didn't know
There's love in letting go

Guess you were my hand to hold
But there's love in letting go
