Letting Go
Many years have I given you
tried my best to provide for you
love and tears and pain it's true
all these years I continue too
the troubles I have tried to miss
how i failed i will never guess
with all my heart i will continue on
to love you no matter where you've gone
with sadness and remorse i let you go
just long to remind you, to let you know
i love you now as i loved you then
with all my heart, and all my being
i waited so long just to hold you
i know now that to hold you,
i must let you go.
please understand my heart was true
all the love i have for you
go my dear, and grow up strong
for in my heart you will always belong
sweet and young and tender and true
go my dear, i will so miss you
