You Must Let Go

Verse 1

We built a home full of love to last forever Somehow every year only got better Then one winter morning my life slipped away, And your soul hid inside the life we made.

Pre-Chorus

Now I wait where the daylight can’t reach, Where the living and lost are able to meet…

Chorus

I find you in your dreams at night, I see the hurt smother your light. You reach for me like I’m all you know, But my love… my love… You must let go. If we are fated, we will meet again in time, After stars rise and fall and years unwind, But please don’t live as if I’m all you know, So my love… my love… You must let go.

Verse 2

We chased every road till the daylight was gone, Filled up the years with the best of our songs, Now I ache every time that I see Your world standing still because of me. And the guilt is a weight I cannot bear, As your bright tomorrows disappear.

Bridge

Live for the both of us, stand in the rain, Let every heartbeat wash away a little pain, Smell the morning air, feel sunlight’s heat, Let every memory find its release. You can’t chase the future if I’m all you see, And I can’t be at peace if you’re not free.

Final Chorus

I can speak to you in your dreams, In the quiet space where nothing’s as it seems, When your eyes open slowly, and I’m not there, Because your waking world is not mine to share, Perhaps we’ll be together again someday, When your long, beautiful life has passed away, But until that dawn, You have to live on… For me… And for you… let hope grow, My love… You must let go. You must let go. You must let go.
