Song Description

Learning to Let Go

Lyrics

They are names we all remember
Some were taken in December; some in June
They're all gone too soon

Michael; John & Elvis;
Sang us songs that somehow helped us
See life through

But someone like you
Just an ordinary person
An extraordinary life
With all that I know
I still haven't learned to

Chorus
Let it go
I wanna put it all behind me
Remember the good then move on
I need to know
Someday we'll be together
So hard to believe that you're gone
There's an emptiness that's deep within my soul
I gotta let it go

I put all your stuff in boxes;
Went through every drawer & closet
In you room, felt like I was touching you
Sat for endless hours askin why
& wonderin what I'm supposed to do
If I only knew

I could let go of the sadness
Still hold on to every memory
But these wounds of mine
Still need so much more time to
BRIDGE
Maybe if I stopped starin at your picture,
Put away those old home movies of you when you were young
Tell me what more can be done

They are names we all remember
Some were taken in December, some in June
