The One Who Let Me Go by The Abigails Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Tell me why do you
Have to run so far away
Guess I know it's all those shitty things
I wish I'd never said
Calm the drink
Rest my head
Wish I's laying in your bed
'Cause I like it when you dance around
You like when I play dead
[Chorus]
By the skin of your teeth
Well, I just don't know
And I cannot get my mind off
Of the one that let me go
[Verse 2]
Sleep-deprived, so upset
Just like Abner Jay once said
"I'm so Depressed" I just can't help it
Try to hide it from my friends
Walk to work, pass your home
So familiar I don't know
They say faith can move a mountain
But my faith has run so low
[Verse 3]
Fly in the ointment
That's where I'm at
They say reap that which you sow
Lord, I've got to have you back
So if I can get this right
Won't start any more of them fights
Call you bitch or sleep assault you
Will not every single night
[Chorus]
By the skin of your teeth
Well, I just don't know
And I cannot get my mind off
Of the one that let me go
Tell me why do you
Have to run so far away
Guess I know it's all those shitty things
I wish I'd never said
Calm the drink
Rest my head
Wish I's laying in your bed
'Cause I like it when you dance around
You like when I play dead
[Chorus]
By the skin of your teeth
Well, I just don't know
And I cannot get my mind off
Of the one that let me go
[Verse 2]
Sleep-deprived, so upset
Just like Abner Jay once said
"I'm so Depressed" I just can't help it
Try to hide it from my friends
Walk to work, pass your home
So familiar I don't know
They say faith can move a mountain
But my faith has run so low
[Verse 3]
Fly in the ointment
That's where I'm at
They say reap that which you sow
Lord, I've got to have you back
So if I can get this right
Won't start any more of them fights
Call you bitch or sleep assault you
Will not every single night
[Chorus]
By the skin of your teeth
Well, I just don't know
And I cannot get my mind off
Of the one that let me go
