Setting suns before they fall into the ocean
Do they whisper all their secrets to the wind?
Well that don't matter to me at all
You and me already know
What we intend
A sailing boat forever safe beside the shoreline
But that's not where this boat was ever meant to be
Let's set it free upon the wind
'Cos it won't carry wedding rings
For you and me
Pieces of you, your perfect remains
Pieces of me, that I could never change
Pieces of us go around and round again
Pieces of a broken dream where nobody's to blame
Why do I have to let you go?
An old raincoat will always protect you from the storm
But empty pockets can't be filled with a love that's been and gone
Let's fold that coat away
Walk our separate ways
So we can feel the sun
Pieces of you, your perfect remains
Pieces of me, that I could never change
Pieces of us go around and around again
Pieces of a broken dream where nobody's to blame
I know I've got to let you go
I just don't want to let you go
Why do I have to let you go?
