Letting Go

Verse 1
Did I hold on too tightly, or was I too weak?
Is that the reason you’ve been turning from my touch?
I thought I loved you the right way; how wrong could that be?
I tried to please you though I needed so much

I only did the best that I knew how
There’s only one thing left to do now

Chorus:
I’m letting go of the answers I’m waiting for
I’m letting go I don’t want to wonder anymore
It’s not easy to surrender, but this is out of my control
I’m letting go..
I’m letting go..

Verse 2
I won’t walk away pretending it’s not breaking my heart
It isn’t easy to just put love aside
But though one story’s ending, now another can start
It’s hard to leave you, but I’ll be alright

I only blame myself for taking so long to see
To unchain myself I’ve got to set it all free

Chorus:
I’m letting go of the answers I’m waiting for
I’m letting go I don’t want to wonder anymore
It’s not easy to surrender, but this is out of my control
I’m letting go..

Bridge
I’m smart enough to know when I’ve been beaten
I’m proud enough to leave and not look back
I can’t keep what I don’t have

Chorus:
I’m letting go of the answers I’m waiting for
I’m letting go I don’t want to wonder anymore
It’s not easy to surrender, but this is out of my control
I’m letting go of the answers I’m waiting for
I’m letting go I don’t want to wonder anymore
It’s not easy to surrender, but this is out of my control
I’m letting go..
I’m letting go..
