Please Let Me Go

Please Let Me Go     

When I look into your beautiful eyes

I can see deep down past your disguise

I see the love there 

I see the passion

I see the pain

I know that you’ve been hurt before

But it won’t happen anymore

If you would let go

Stop denying

Don’t restrain

I thought that I could wait forever

Until you made up your mind

I know that I will love you forever 

But with the passing of time

If I can’t hold you

If I can’t love you

Please let me go

Now I stand and watch you walk away

I wipe a tear and pray for the day

That you may come back

Say you love me

Be my wife

Until that day I’ll try to carry on

I feel so empty now that you are gone

But I will go on

Hold your memory

All my life

I thought that I could wait forever

Until you made up your mind

I know that I will love you forever 

But with the passing of time

If I can’t hold you

If I can’t love you

Please let me go
