A spell for letting go

I take the sharpest shears,
A ball of twine
Cut a string for everyone in my life
To my belt loops I tie each string so tight
And attempt to hold on

But did you think its a spell for letting go?
I cast a spell for letting go
Oh...

At the end of each string
The souls of my loves I bring
To the bridge (to the bridge)
I might set them free
A symbol of all thats haunting me
Their names are la da da da dee...
Their names la da da da dee...
La da da da dee...

In a desperate attempt
A will that I left
In a river from that heart of stone
As my fate approached
I felt a pull on those ropes
I looked up and saw those souls
Oh thank you la da da da dee...
Thank you la da da da dee...
La da da da dee...

So easily I felt I freed myself
Cutting strings one at a time
Goodbye, la da da da dee...
Goodbye, la da da da dee...
La da da da dee...
