"Let Her Go" lyrics

She's got wild flowing hair and a California ease
She'll make you fall in love with a heart you can't keep
An actress with a voice pure as honeybees
In her past life she was a willow tree, a willow tree

She'll give you advice that she wouldn't take
Freer than the winds blowing off the Cape
While you have her attention, love her and let her know
Then let her go, let her go

An emotional Aries dancing to Tim McGraw
Recalling her dreams in her underwear and bra
An old soul and a child all wrapped into one
She will help you remember what it's like to have fun, like to have fun

She'll give you advice that she wouldn't take
Freer than the winds blowing off the Cape
While you have her attention, love her and let her know
Then let her go, let her go

While you have her attention, love her and let her know
Then let her go, let her go
Let her go
