You Can Let Go Lyrics

Wind blowing on my face

Sidewalk flying beneath my bike

A five year old's first taste

Of what freedom's really like



He was running right beside me

His hand holding on the seat

I took a deep breath and hollered

As I headed for the street



You can let go now, daddy, you can let go

Oh, I think, I'm ready to do this on my own

It's still a little bit scary but I want you to know

I'll be okay now, daddy, you can let go



I was standing at the altar

Between the two loves of my life

To one, I've been a daughter

To one, I soon would be a wife



When the preacher asked

"Who gives this woman?"

Daddy's eyes filled up with tears

He kept holding tightly to my arm

'Til I whispered in his ear



You can let go now, daddy, you can let go

Oh, I think, I'm ready to do this on my own

It's still feels a little bit scary but I want you to know

I'll be okay now, daddy, you can let go



It was killing me to see the strongest man I ever knew

Wasting away to nothing in that hospital room

You know he's only hanging on for you



That's what the night nurse said

My voice and heart were breaking

As I crawled up in his bed and said



You can let go now, daddy, you can let go

Your little girl is ready to do this on my own

It's gonna be a little bit scary but I want you to know

I'll be okay now, daddy, you can let go, you can let go
