Esperanza Spalding - Let Her lyrics

You just walked into the
Quiet after the storm, yes
It's chillingly silent
And you sense that something's wrong
Hmmm, something's surely wrong
And you saw the letter
With the keys laying on the counter
But, you know just what it means
And grab the phone to call her

Now is this another of her cruel jokes or
She made good those threats
To finally leave you
Tears well up in your eyes which your
Worn down nerves won't let you cry
And finally

She's gone, bye bye, so long let her go
She's gone, bye bye, so long now
Love goes on apartment stripped in silence
Still you hear each fighting, sobbing make up
And all those crazy ways you forgave
Each time she loved you
Now that you're all alone
You realize she filled your life with litter
Her kisses used to thrill
Now the aftertaste is bitter
With the memories from the
Mess you've endured when

She's gone, bye bye, so long let her go
She's gone, bye bye, so long now
Love goes on
