LETTING YOU GO
by Patti Best
Copyright 2002 Patricia M Best

1)I memorized all your moves
and every look of your face
I still see you clearly now
as I think of your embrace
We shared something so special
We had years filled with fun
Till the day you decided
I was not the lucky one

2)It was so damned hard
for me to realize
I hungered for your love
at any kind of price
You tried to tell me so many times
in so many ways
didn't want to see it but it was
right there on your face

Chorus)
LETTING YOU GO
I should've done it so long ago
I was young and naive and just didn't know
I hope you know
I never wanted to smother you
You were always the nicest soul to talk to
I'm LETTING YOU GO

Bridge)
You were in my dream last night
a bright blue bird in flight
and I heard you sing
Then you were a swift red kite
anticipating flight
so I cut the string

3) I hope that life shines brightly
wherever you are
Think of me sometime when you
gaze up at a star
I can't forget the fine love affair
that we once had
I remember only the best
I've let go all the bad

Chorus)
LETTING YOU GO
But I learned a lot from you
Things that to this day I still hold true
I love you so
By letting go we'll both be free
Now I know how love's supposed to be
I'm LETTING YOU GO
