Letting Go
Fresh is my memory, fresh as the air
We were playing in the sand, so unaware
With this satisfying feeling
Running through our hands
Shaved ice by the ocean
My heart at your command
It just gets harder letting go (3x)
Sophisticated questions, frustration on your face
From a boy to young man
Your life I can retrace
And I know that you’ll be leaving
To see the world and to shine
And I won’t stop believing in you
So let me hug you one more time
It just gets harder letting go (3x)
Instrumental
Soon you will be coming home to see
The cradle of love from which you have grown to be
So strong
And I’ll be strong because
Now I know that you’ll be leaving
To see the world and to shine
And I won’t stop believing in you
So let me hug you one more time
It just gets harder letting go (3x)
