Lyrics:
The only song I've ever known
Is the song of letting go
Three chords and someone moving on
That's my one trick pony song
In a pretty house somewhere
In the apartment up the stairs
Eyes were wide and plans were made
Someone was finally left betrayed
The beauty of how it begins
Is always lost in how it ends
Empty hearts they turn to stone
To face another day alone
I always trusted like a fool
That's how I ended up this cruel
Gun-shy, broke, and worse for wear
And it was love that brought me here
The only song I've ever known
Is the song of letting go
Three chords and someone moving on
That's my one trick pony song
But I will give you all that's left
Someone already ran off with the rest
But what remains is what is true
And that belongs to you
What remains is what is true
Now that belongs to you
The only song I've ever known
Is the song of letting go
Three chords and someone moving on
That's my one trick pony song
In a pretty house somewhere
In the apartment up the stairs
Eyes were wide and plans were made
Someone was finally left betrayed
The beauty of how it begins
Is always lost in how it ends
Empty hearts they turn to stone
To face another day alone
I always trusted like a fool
That's how I ended up this cruel
Gun-shy, broke, and worse for wear
And it was love that brought me here
The only song I've ever known
Is the song of letting go
Three chords and someone moving on
That's my one trick pony song
But I will give you all that's left
Someone already ran off with the rest
But what remains is what is true
And that belongs to you
What remains is what is true
Now that belongs to you
