How did I go all of those years / Not even hearing your name / How did I think leaving you now / Somehow would feel just the same / As before / If we're not who we were anymore / Now I know you, I can't go to then / To when we were separate pieces / Not apart parts, parts apart / How did I live oblivious / To us and all that we'd be / How did I sleep every night / Without you right next to me / As before / We are not who we were anymore / Now I know you, I can't go to then / To when we were separate pieces / Not apart parts, parts apart / Parts apart

I loved you in another world, it was the winter there / You reached out and touched the static in my hair / Let it go, let it go / Let it go, let it go / I loved you in another time, it was the future there / I was yours, and you were mine, somehow, that was fair / Let it go, let it go / Let it go, let it go / Let it go, let it go / Let it go, let it go / Let it go, let it go / Let it go, let it go / I am only now you are / Only now I am / Only now you are I /Am only now / You are only / Now I am only / Now you are only / Now I am only / Now you are only / I am only now you are / Only now I am / Only now you are I / Am only now / You are only / Now I am only / Now you are only / Now I am only / Now you are only / I am only now you are / Only now I am / Only now you are I / Am only now / You are only / Now I am only / Now you are only / Now I am only / Now you are only / Now I am only / Now you are only / Let it go

You make it easier to cook / Stirring while I chop / You make it easier to drive / Checking my blind spot / You make it easier to reach / The top-shelf books I want to read / You make it easier to pack / Cause you're all I really need / You make everything easier but goodbye, goodbye / You make everything easier but goodbye / When I can't zip up my dress / You will lend a hand / When I can't articulate / You will understand / When I'm bad at running laps / You will walk with me / And when I'm up at 4 AM / You'll sleep talk to me / You make everything easier but goodbye, goodbye / You make everything easier but goodbye / Oh, if that's the one thing we can't improve / I just won't say goodbye to you / I promise you, we'll be okay / With all the other hard parts out of the way / You make everything easier but goodbye, goodbye / You make everything easier but goodbye, goodbye / You make everything easier but goodbye

Find me a spot, spare me a spade, dare me to dig / Pass me a post, hammer it home, build it up big / Wash me a dish, make me a bed, skip me a stone / Plant me a seed, spin me a thread, bury a bone / This is enough for me / You are enough for me / Find me a spot next to your head, that's where I'll lay / Save me a seat next to your heart, that's where I'll stay / Keep me in mind, keep me in touch, put me at ease / I will return, I will relate, I will release / This is enough for me / You are enough for me / Oh you leave me in love, you find me in love / I leave you in love, I find you in love / You leave me in love, find me in love / I leave you in love, I find you in love / This is enough for me / You are enough / This is enough for me / You are enough for me

I am scared of the space you make in my mind / Of the black hole a star leaves behind / You have pushed the darkness far away / But I can't need you, I can't need you to stay / Cause one day you might shine in other skies / And I will have to learn to turn the light on / With supernovas burning up behind my eyes / Well, my world will still be brighter / Even when you're gone, you're making me stronger / With the strength that I grew when you were here / It was mine all along, but no longer / Will it falter in face of fear / On the shortest day of the year / And that's thanks to you, my dear / I am scared of the space you make in my bed / I never noticed it before it held your head / You have made my waking up so warm / But I can't need you to set my alarm / Cause one day you might find another pillow / And I will have to fall asleep alone / Maybe you won't want to, but you will go, you will go / Well, my world will still be brighter / Even when you're gone, you're making me stronger / With the strength that I grew when you were here / It was mine all along, but no longer / Will it falter in face of fear / On the shortest day of the year / And that's thanks to you, that's thanks to you, my dear / My dear
