Three Steps from Letting Go - Dustaro
I’m walking slow through the memories we made
Your voice in the shadows begins to fade
But some nights I swear I still feel you close
Like a whisper that follows wherever I go
Your picture still lies where the lamplight falls
A soft little echo along the walls
I’m learning to breathe in a world turned cold
But some parts of you never let me go
And I turn with the wind
Though it hurts every spin
Every step is a truth that I’m starting to know
Three steps from letting go
But my heart keeps holding slow
Like a waltz in the dark where the old dreams glow
I keep turning soft and low
Three steps from letting go
But the past still pulls me so
In the hush of the night when the cold winds blow
I’m three steps from letting go
Your jacket still hangs where you left it last year
I touch it sometimes when the moon feels near
There’s a warmth in the cloth that I can’t define
Like a heartbeat buried inside of mine
The pedal steel cries like it knows our pain
The echo of us in a soft refrain
I’m learning to dance with the hurt you left
But some waltzes linger inside my chest
And I turn with the wind
Though it hurts every spin
Every step is a truth that I’m starting to know
Three steps from letting go
But my heart keeps holding slow
Like a waltz in the dark where the old dreams glow
I keep turning soft and low
Three steps from letting go
But the past still pulls me so
In the hush of the night when the cold winds blow
I’m three steps from letting go
I’m walking slow through the memories we made
Your voice in the shadows begins to fade
But some nights I swear I still feel you close
Like a whisper that follows wherever I go
Your picture still lies where the lamplight falls
A soft little echo along the walls
I’m learning to breathe in a world turned cold
But some parts of you never let me go
And I turn with the wind
Though it hurts every spin
Every step is a truth that I’m starting to know
Three steps from letting go
But my heart keeps holding slow
Like a waltz in the dark where the old dreams glow
I keep turning soft and low
Three steps from letting go
But the past still pulls me so
In the hush of the night when the cold winds blow
I’m three steps from letting go
Your jacket still hangs where you left it last year
I touch it sometimes when the moon feels near
There’s a warmth in the cloth that I can’t define
Like a heartbeat buried inside of mine
The pedal steel cries like it knows our pain
The echo of us in a soft refrain
I’m learning to dance with the hurt you left
But some waltzes linger inside my chest
And I turn with the wind
Though it hurts every spin
Every step is a truth that I’m starting to know
Three steps from letting go
But my heart keeps holding slow
Like a waltz in the dark where the old dreams glow
I keep turning soft and low
Three steps from letting go
But the past still pulls me so
In the hush of the night when the cold winds blow
I’m three steps from letting go
