Thank Me Later (up close)

[Verse 1] Is it supposed to be like A never-ending train ride? Or waiting for a grey sky to turn to sun? I kiss you when I feel it We talk like we're defeated We're just scared of being quitters after this long [Pre-Chorus] So won't you say the words we're chokin' on? [Chorus] I need to let you go, let you go It's better for us both You don't see it, but I'm doin' us a favor I need to let you go, let you go 'Cause when you know, you know And it's hurting right now, but you'll thank me later I need to let you go [Verse 2] Let's not decorate the sadness Let's just rip off thе Band-Aid And hug and say it's okay, we stop right here Thе sooner that we're not together You'll find someone better But if we're gonna get there No, if we're gonna get there [Chorus] I need to let you go, let you go It's better for us both You don't see it, but I'm doin' us a favor I need to let you go, let you go 'Cause when you know, you know And it's hurting right now, but you'll thank me later I need to let you go [Bridge] I know nothing's ever promised But I hate walkin' away 'Cause this isn't how I saw it Tears running down my face I know nothing's ever promised But I hate walkin' away 'Cause this isn't how I saw it [Chorus] I need to let you go, let you go It's better for us both You don't see it, but I'm doin' us a favor I need to let you go, let you go 'Cause when you know, you know And it's hurting right now, but you'll thank me later I need to let you go
