Goodbye, My Ghosts

[Verse 1]
I kept your old hello folded in a drawer
And all the almosts waiting by the door
You never held my hand, but I held the ache
Like a promise I was scared to break

[Pre-Chorus]
I turn around; you’re fading in the glass
I bless the roads that couldn’t last

[Chorus]
Goodbye, my ghosts, I’m letting go
You were a maybe, not my home
I’ll take this road with open hands
And learn to love the one who stands
Here in the morning, here at last
I’m not a prisoner of the past

[Verse 2]
To every love I couldn’t meet in time
I leave your name outside this life of mine
No more rehearsing what we might have been
I make a little room to let me in

[Half-Time Bridge]
I can miss you and move on
Both can live beneath one dawn

[Final Chorus]
Goodbye, my ghosts, I’m letting go
You were a maybe, not my home
I take this road with open hands
And choose to love the one who stands
Here in the morning, here at last
I’m free to walk beyond the past
