Let Him

[Verse 1]

I let him kiss me at a party

I let him walk me home

Let him listen to my music

Let him laugh at all my jokes

Let him take me out to dinner

And lead me to my room

Let him hold me every night

I let him always leave too soon

[Pre-Chorus]

Oh, I let him meet my family

I let him pet my dog

And fly me out to Athens and say I was the one, oh

I let him plan our future

I let him share a home

And I watched him as his heart turned into stone, so

[Chorus]

When he wanted to leave

And break me in pieces

I just let him

Oh, when he wanted to see

His life without me in it

I just let him

Oh, oh, I just let him

[Verse 2]

I let him tell me that he's tired

And focus more on work

Let his eyes grow oh so distant

Let him get up from dessert

Let him make me feel so helpless

Like it was all my fault

Oh, I took all of his problems but I couldn’t fix 'em all, so

[Chorus]

When he wanted to leave

And break me in pieces

I just let him

Oh, when he wanted to see

His life without me in it

I just let him

Oh, oh, I just let him

[Bridge]

I let him miss me when his sure thing's not texting him back

His mom’s asking him how I've been

Same dead-end job, same high school friends

Still stalk me on the Internet

I'm just some girl he used to know

His friends buy tickets to my show

Let him miss me everywhere he goes

[Outro]

So if he wanted to see

His life without me in it

I just let him
