Lyrics
[Intro] [Verse] Dust motes dancing in the light Climbing up the stairs tonight Cardboard boxes piled so high Underneath the attic sky Found a shoebox taped in blue Everything reminds of you Old receipts and polaroids Filling up the empty voids I see my name in cursive ink Harder now to even blink [Pre-Chorus] Then I saw the stack of gold Stories that were never told Envelopes with my name on top Suddenly my heartbeat dropped I feel the weight of every year Dissolving in a single tear [Chorus] Unopened cards from 2004 I don't wanna hurt no more I missed the calls, I missed the time Now I'm reading every line Your shaky script, your heart of gold Keeping me from the winter cold I’m flying high, I’m letting go More than you could ever know [Post-Chorus] Yeah, I'm letting go More than you could ever know In the attic light Everything's alright [Break] [Verse] “Happy Birthday, Little Man” Written as only you can Five bucks tucked inside the fold Worth more than the world of gold Why did I always say “I’m busy”? Now the silence makes me dizzy Twenty voicemails I erased Memories I can't replace But your ink is still so clear Whispering into my ear That it's okay to feel the pain Dancing in the purple rain [Pre-Chorus] I see the stamps from long ago Watching all the shadows grow Envelopes with my name on top Suddenly my heartbeat dropped I feel the weight of every year Dissolving in a single tear [Chorus] Unopened cards from 2004 I don't wanna hurt no more I missed the calls, I missed the time Now I'm reading every line Your shaky script, your heart of gold Keeping me from the winter cold I’m flying high, I’m letting go More than you could ever know [Bridge] The piano plays a distant tune Echoing beneath the moon I feel the sub-bass in my chest Finally, I let you rest You aren't gone, you're in the ink Every time I stop to think A minor chords and heavy hearts This is where the healing starts [Chorus] Unopened cards from 2004 I don't wanna hurt no more I missed the calls, I missed the time Now I'm reading every line Your shaky script, your heart of gold Keeping me from the winter cold I’m flying high, I’m letting go More than you could ever know [Post-Chorus] Yeah, I'm letting go More than you could ever know In the attic light Everything's alright [Outro]
