Lyrics

Dear darling, I hope you’re smiling
That look of yours that only you can do
It’s been a while since you’ve been here with me
And I forgot to breathe
Thinking of all we’ve been through
Cause you break me
And yet you save me
It’s just a part of being who you are
I was glad to be the one you need
While you needed me
Until we fell apart

Let go
I let go of all illusions of control
I bet my soul
Your hand to hold
Until you need some room to grow
If you stay with me or you’re running free
The best thing I can be is what you need
Fly away, baby

You sweet thing
With your heart beating
I felt it say, when you were in my arms
That you’d never want to set me free
From your grip on me
Never want to be apart
Now I’m waving
Your face is fading
I left you at the gates there and you flew
And as you go to find a destiny
That’s just not for me
There’s just one thing I can do

Let go
I let go of all illusions of control
I bet my soul
Your hand to hold
Until we need some room to grow
If you stay with me or you’re running free
The best thing I can be is right for me
Fly away, baby

Always, always, always,
I live with an open heart
I know this, I know this step is a new start
So say I’m “just a friend”
I’ll say “A friend’s a friend indeed!”
Because where hope and faith remain
Love is the greatest of these

Let go
I let go of all illusions of control
Won’t let my soul or heart grow cold
Because I too have room to grow
Now I’m running free with our memories
And a chance to meet the best me I can be
Fly away, be free
