Let her go

When you make her feel alone while she's with you
Feel used and unloved in your company
Her life a lonely lullaby of sadness
Then take a deep breath, take a step back and let her go

When she opens her arms to you at night
With a desire to take you inside her
And you turn away from her, try to feel her pain
Tend to that pain, or take a step back and let her go

She's beautiful and beneath those sad eyes
She longs to feel beautiful
Longs to be swept up and smothered in kisses
Kisses that once you longed to give her

When you no longer want her like you used to
Let someone else show her that she's needed
Take a deep breath and let her go
