lyrics
I stood on the shore and thought
"What more could I ask for"
With the breeze holding me up
And the water breaking at my feet
I'm gonna miss this
When you leave and go away
Most people tell you not to look back
But like the wife of Lot
I will turn around and fall like salt to the ground
I can feel my body tumbling at the thought
But I must press on
All I need is one reason to let it go
And although I have several
I can't let go of the pain I will cause you
The tears you will cry
The love you feel I will be leaving behind
But it's time for me to start
To move forward
To let go of all that I have lost
So I back away from the shore
I turn my head away from the wind
Forget the feeling it gives me
When the breeze holds me up
(When the breeze holds me up)
And it breaks up at my feet
(And it breaks at my feet)
I'm gonna miss this
(I'm gonna miss this)
When the breeze holds me up
(When the breeze holds me up)
And it breaks up at my feet
(And it breaks at my feet)
I'm gonna miss this, I'm gonna miss
(I'm gonna miss this)
Don't let me go
I'm gonna miss this
(I'm gonna miss this)
I'm gonna miss this
"What more could I ask for"
With the breeze holding me up
And the water breaking at my feet
I'm gonna miss this
When you leave and go away
Most people tell you not to look back
But like the wife of Lot
I will turn around and fall like salt to the ground
I can feel my body tumbling at the thought
But I must press on
All I need is one reason to let it go
And although I have several
I can't let go of the pain I will cause you
The tears you will cry
The love you feel I will be leaving behind
But it's time for me to start
To move forward
To let go of all that I have lost
So I back away from the shore
I turn my head away from the wind
Forget the feeling it gives me
When the breeze holds me up
(When the breeze holds me up)
And it breaks up at my feet
(And it breaks at my feet)
I'm gonna miss this
(I'm gonna miss this)
When the breeze holds me up
(When the breeze holds me up)
And it breaks up at my feet
(And it breaks at my feet)
I'm gonna miss this, I'm gonna miss
(I'm gonna miss this)
Don't let me go
I'm gonna miss this
(I'm gonna miss this)
I'm gonna miss this
