"Let Her Go" lyrics

It's just like trying to hold the breeze
Sturdy as a fallen tree
Like the water splits the mountain slow
You have to know when to let her go

Forever's such as funny thing
Time will make a diamond ring
But love's more like a field of snow
You have to know when to let her go

And I know it'll hurt for a while
And there's no way to change it
When she's made up her mind
You have to know when to let her go

It might be the bags packed by the door
Or all the words she's heard before
It might hit you in the heart when she's already down the road
You have to know when to let her go

And I know it'll hurt for a while
And there's no way to change it
When she's made up her mind
You have to know when to let her go
You have to know when to let her go
You have to know when to let her go
You have to know when to let her go
