Steps Of Letting Go

Taking the first step, you can hear your heart racing.
Now at step two you wish you could stop chasing.
As you take the third step it slowly sinks in,
That the person you love, you will never win.
If you got up to four, you certainly know, most of those feelings won't ever go.
Don't tumble now! You can't let it show.
Step number five is saying "as long as you're happy, I'm as happy as can be"
But in your heart you're thinking, why didn’t you pick me?
