Let Me Go Lyrics

I've grown a lot in the past five years
You've helped me out through all my fears
You're there for me whenever I'm in need

But now your eyes are filled with tears
'Cause you're afraid I'll disappear
You're just scared that I don't want you here
And I don't want you near

I'm growing up like everyone
Soon you'll be all alone
I know how hard it is to be alone

For so long you've held me close
Under protection of your wing
Never thinking of this day

Now you're afraid, I might not remember
All the things you taught me in eighteen years
So when I say this, please remember
That you mean the whole world to me
But you're gonna have to try

To let me go
You've got to learn to let me go
Now let me go
You've got to learn to let me go

Last night when you told me
That you thought you lost my love I couldn't figure out who you were thinking of

Someone new just took my heart
No need to fall apart
'Cause I still feel the same

Don't go out to play tonight
Don't go out in bars there's too many fights there
I can't stand this waiting in the dark for you again

But when I get back home tonight
You'll be waiting there just like last night
I know that some time again you will love me
But I can't read your mind

So please understand that the cards are in my hands
And you can't be the judge
'Cause my life is complicated enough already

Sometimes you might believe that I'm on strike
I don't show up to class
But please let me choose my own path

Let me go
You have to learn to let me go
Now let me go
My heart still needs some time to grow
