Jay Reese - Holding on/Letting Go Lyrics

Cold breeze in the fall wind
Or whatever you call it
Cold plunge and I'm all in
And I ended up fallin
I just swiped right on Tinder
You wasn't a tad curious
It seemed like a brisk November
And we didn't want nothin' serious
We met for a movie and dinner
It was some random Friday
You said you caught a vibe
Next day we smashed at my place
It was so pure and new
Think we were glad we tried it
Had to shoot my shot twice
I think we're both excited
You were stayin' at your parents' house
We smoked out of your window
You put me on to FKJ
Our love was on crescendo
Link-ups out with Tor and Sean
Playin' on Nintendo
Weekends chillin' out with you
Was everything I lived for
Even though it felt so big
It always seemed so simple
We wake up, listen to some tunes
Then smoke until we nympho's
The deeper that I got with you
The more I felt so fearful
Cause I want to move out west
And the south's more what you into
Before I let you go
There's something you should know
There's nothing you can do
To make me forget you
Before I let you go
There's something you should know
There's nothing you can do
To make me forget
The Summertime
Yeah
Now I didn't recant none of this to ever get no sympathy
I know that we broke up for a reason, on that I agree
I did get so toxic in the end, but come on truthfully
I had my reasons to go off on the things that I believe
You know what you had did
Won't repeat, none of it
It had tore our love apart
Way back when that covid hit
I tried everything to
Even melt it into you
Biggest mistake ever
Cause I lost my way in you
And I tried to off myself
Just so I can feel no pain
And my family couldn't help
Cause they helped me feel this way
Funny how someone I love and thought was everything
Was a nail in my coffin
And my cradle to the grave
Before I let you go
There's something you should know
There's nothing you can do
To make me forget you
Before I let you go
There's something you should know
There's nothing you can do
To make me forget
The Summertime
Before I let you go
There's something you should know
There's nothing you can do
To make me forget you
Before I let you go
There's something you should know
There's nothing you can do
To make me forget
The Summertime
It took me two years to gain clarity
Strighten up my life and got in therapy
Even asked the mother of my child has
To marry me
And a love like that still carries me
But I wanted to say thank you
For these important life lessons
Nobody's ever obligated
And every day is still a blessing
And I don't feel animosity
And no longer blame myself, so
I'm glad we had this time together
But I'm finally ready to let go
Thanks for Listening!
