Letting Go

Letting Go (Hans York)

I know you said you wanna leave

Your love is gone I can't believe

That everything we had

Will just be memories

It takes a while to understand

I could not see that it would end

And nothing that I say or do

Can ever change your mind

I take a breath, step aside, let the river flow

Beautiful I realize, that's all I need to know

Letting go, letting go, letting go

Letting go, letting go

I sit beside your bed at night

Hold your hands in candlelight

Remember when I was a child

You did the same for me.

The years have past way too fast

I wish your life would ever last

Now I need to let you go

Into the great unknown

I take a breath, step aside, let the river flow

Beautiful I realize, that's all I need to know

Letting go, letting go, letting go

Letting go, letting go

In life there is one certainty

All is changing constantly

Now is here not yesterday

Tomorrow no one knows

If everything is said and done

And time has come to move on

I accept whole-heartedly

Whatever it may be

I take a breath, step aside, let the river flow

Beautiful I realize, that's all I need to know

Letting go, letting go, letting go

Letting go, letting go
