The Right Things

I've been running down this road
Don't even know where I'm going half the time
I've been hiding in my phone
I have been missing all the moments I'm trying to find

I've been pushing back regret
I've been lost inside my head
I've been wandering around like a ghost

But I wanna hold on to the right things
And let go of the rest
'Cause time's worth more than money
And I'm done buying what won't last
'Cause the years are just a vapor
And this life is just a breath
I wanna hold on to the right things
And let go of the rest

I've been wearing myself out
Trying to get this off the ground on my own
Yeah, I've been carrying this weight
Feeling that something's got to change, God, I know it
Oh God, I know it

I've been pushing back regret
I've been lost inside my head
I've been wandering around like a ghost

But I wanna hold on to the right things
And let go of the rest
'Cause time's worth more than money
And I'm done buying what won't last
'Cause the years are just a vapor
And this life is just a breath
I wanna hold on to the right things
And let go of the rest

You're the one thing that will last forever
So I'm done holding on to what won't matter
You're the one thing that will last forever
So I'm done holding on to what won't matter
You're the one thing that will last forever (Oh, oh)
So I'm done holding on to what won't matter (You're the only thing)
You're the one thing that will last forever (Oh, oh)
So I'm done holding on to what won't matter

I wanna hold on to the right things
And let go of the rest
'Cause time's worth more than money
And I'm done buying what won't last
'Cause the years are just a vapor
And this life is just a breath
So hold on to the right things
And let go of the rest
