i just had to let you know
it broke my heart to let you go
there's something strangling beneath this skyline
like treading water in a stormy sea
so go and fill your heart now
take back your love from me
because the world won't wait for regret to set in
i'm sorry, i'm sorry

forgiveness is an empty promise
promise you won't forget me now
because i just had to let you know
it broke my heart to let you go
so send your sinking ship to sea
and take back your love from me
