I need to let go,
I cannot stay,
And let you hurt me,
In this way.

I need to understand,
She's the one you love now,
someday I'll realize that,
someway, somehow.

For the time being,
I'll hold my head high,
I'll wipe away the tears,
Whenever you walk by.

So, I will smile,
And not let it show,
for I realize, now,
I need to let go.
