Never Been Good at Letting Go

Lyrics

I held on to that last cigarette Like it was some kind of life line Rolled it back and forth between my fingers Let it hang from my lips like a kiss that lingers I guess all my favorite habits die hard And your love is no exception It hangs by a thread from a window in my heart I let it lay there lifeless like a pillow in my arms, cause... CHORUS I've never been good at letting go Never walked away from anything that I thought I could hold All I've let slip through my hands I left scratches on Cause I've never been good at letting go When I was a kid all the birds with broken wings Seemed to find their way to my house And I could feed 'em through a straw Or patch 'em up with a sling My dad had to be the one to set them free, cause... REPEAT CHORUS BRIDGE That's how it was when I tuned you loose Your love caught freedom's wind Away you flew REPEAT CHORUS All I've let slip through my hands I've left scratches on I've never been good at letting go
