It wouldn't have to be this hard
If it were written in the stars
There comes a time when you just know
Good-bye's the only way to go
And I look back before I go on
and try to figure out what went wrong
I used to think it was giving up
and that I wasn't trying hard enough
but now I've been around
long enough to know
There's a difference between
Giving Up & Letting Go
I think I gave it my best shot
I know I've given all I've got
And though it hasn't happened yet
I will look back without regret
I hoped and prayed
that it wouldn't turn out this way
But it looks like fate had the final say
I used to think it was giving up
and that I wasn't trying hard enough
but now I've been around
long enough to know
There's a difference between
Giving Up & Letting Go
