"The Letting Go" lyrics

Melissa Etheridge Lyrics

"The Letting Go"

I came here to let you know
The letting go
Has taken place
I have held the winter's son
Become one
Set my pace

Isn't that what we wanted
All along?
Freedom like a stone
Maybe we were wrong
But I can say goodbye
Now that the passion's died
Still it comes so slow
The letting go

Piece by piece I take apart
This complicated heart
And I hope to find
Something I can prove is real
I can feel is truth
I can say is mine

That's all I ever wanted
To be
The closer that I got
The further I could see
But when lovers change
And the night feels strange
We choose our road
The letting go

I came here to let you know
The letting go
Has taken place
