Story Behind The Song

Finally sold the house after my divorce and found myself going through grief all over again by just packing.

Song Description

There is far more to getting divorced than just dividing the property, and paying alimony. So many things that we collect over time can cause huge emotional responses. Even though the person is long gone, he or she lives on through the things that we collected. A vase could be just that to some, But may have a long and wonderful story attatched.

Lyrics

TIME TO LET GO
(v.kiritani, s.heithecker, j.brawner)

What a joke, I thought he was kidding, would I participate in his wedding
Who's the groom, "it's me" he said, fairy tales ran round my head
I said yes and we wed, never thought of what wasn't said
The happy ending never came neither one of us was to blame

Time to let go, I am grateful for so much you'll never know
We had these moments in our lives
No one can take away the magic, magic of our time

Living in silence with the ghosts, of what I thought I wanted most
Souvenirs of another life, when I tried to be the perfect wife
All those things still represent, bittersweet love that came and went
Have to leave it all behind before I go out of my mind

Time to let go, I am grateful for so much you'll never know
We had these moments in our lives
No one can take away the magic, magic of our time

when the anchor, feels like a chain
joy is replaced with pain
Gotta cut away the cord, it's not my lifeline
my heart will heal someday just give it

Time to let go, I am grateful for so much you'll never know
We had these moments in our lives
No one can take away the magic, magic of our time
