The office closed up early, so I thought I'd come on home
She was talking in the kitchen to someone on the phone
I heard her say I love you with a sadness in her voice
I don't wanna leave him but he's giving me no choice

Well, I stood there in silence and listened to it all
With every loving word she said, I could feel the teardrops fall
She kissed the phone goodbye just as I walked into the room
She knew that I'd been listening, there was nothing left to do

But let it go, let it go, let it go away
Let your heart live to love another day
Don't waste time and drag it on, hear what I say
Just let it go, let it go, let it go away

I should have seen it coming
Right from the very start
You know, momma always told me
That girl will break your heart

She came by the house last night to tell me she was wrong
I told her I was sorry but already moving on

Just let it go, let it go, let it go away
Let your heart live to love another day
Don't waste time and drag it on, no, hear what I say
Just let it go, let it go, let it go away
Just let it go, let it go, let it go away
