[00:16.17]Saturday sunset
[00:18.46]We're lying on my bed with five hours to go
[00:26.36]Fingers entwined and so were our minds
[00:30.61]Cryin', "I don't want you to go"
[00:36.35]You wiped away your tears
[00:38.32]But not fears under the still and clear indigo
[00:46.07]You said, "Baby, don't cry, we'll be fine
[00:49.61]You're the one thing I swear I can't outgrow"
[00:56.55]My mother said the younger me was a pretending prodigy
[01:01.58]Well, nothing then, much has changed
[01:06.13]'Cause while you're wolfin' down liquor
[01:08.99]My soul, it gets sicker
[01:11.25]But I'm stickin' to the screenplay
[01:13.46]Gotta say I'm okay, but answer this, babe
[01:16.81]How is it now that somehow you're a strangеr?
[01:21.18]You were mine just yеsterday
[01:26.77]I pray the block in my airway dissipates
[01:30.69]And instead deters your airplane's way
[01:35.41]But heaven denied
[01:40.60]Destiny decried
[01:45.22]Something beautiful died
[01:50.79]Too soon
[01:55.56]But I'm letting go
[02:00.82]I'm givin' up the ghost
[02:05.83]But don't get me wrong
[02:09.15]I'll always love you, that's why
[02:10.90]I wrote you this very last song
[02:15.81]I guess this is where we say goodbye
[02:25.04]I know I'll be alright
[02:30.70]Someday I'll be fine
[02:35.94]But just not tonight (ooh)
[02:47.32]Plungin' into all kinds of diversions
[02:51.77]Like blush wine and sonorous soirées
[02:57.41]But even with gin and surgin' adrenaline
[03:01.93]I see you're all that can intoxicate
[03:07.62]Oceans and engines
[03:09.73]You're skilled at infringin' on great love affairs
[03:17.51]'Cause now my heart's home
[03:19.24]All I've known is long gone and ten thousand miles away
[03:26.28]And I'm not okay
[03:31.30]But I'm letting go
[03:36.58]I'm giving up the ghost
[03:41.38]But don't get me wrong
[03:44.75]I'll always love you, that's why
[03:46.64]I wrote you this very last song
[03:51.49]I guess this is where we say goodbye
[04:00.74]I know I'll be alright
[04:06.61]But just not
[04:07.89]Tonight was the first time I stared into seas
[04:10.96]Of beguiling sepia two years ago
[04:16.42]And the first time I learned real world superpowers lived in three words
[04:21.53]They revitalize my fraying bones, oh
[04:26.74]Now what do you do when your pillar crumbled down
[04:29.28]You've lost all solid ground
[04:30.54]Both dreams and demons drowned
[04:31.68]And this void's all you've found
[04:33.24]And doubts light it aglow?
[04:36.64]I have so many questions
[04:40.49]But I'm pouring them into the ocean
[04:42.90]And I'm starting up my engine
[04:46.95]And I'm letting go
[04:52.14]I'm givin' up your ghost
[04:56.81]It's come to a close
[05:00.64]I marked the end with this last song I wrote
[05:07.07]I'm letting go
[05:12.16]This is the last falsetto
[05:16.96]I'll ever sing to you
[05:19.60]My great lost love
[05:23.36]🎵
