"Giving You Away" lyrics

"Giving You Away"
(feat. Lucius)

Woke up this morning and I knew it was time
So many years we've spent between us
You've grown so much and it feels like a crime
That I don't get to keep you here until the end of time

So I left my fear on the wayside
And I'm happy for the love you chose to live by

You've grown so much, now it's time to fly
And I know I've got to realize you're no longer mine
I'm giving you away
But I'm never gonna let you go

You found a love that will carry you
It brings me tears of joy to see a heart so true
And if he treats you right, and I know he will
There ain't nothing in this whole wide world that you can't do

So I left my fear on the wayside
And I'm happy for the love you chose to live by

You've grown so much, it's time to fly
And I know I've got to realize you're no longer mine
And I just want to tell you, it'll do you right to know
I'm giving you away but I'm never gonna let you go
And I just want to tell you, it will do you right to know
I'm giving you away but I'm never gonna let you go
