Lyrics
Give It Up, Let It Go (Sung Version)
If things aren't turning out
Quite the way you dreamed
And the tension is mounting
To the point you'd like to scream
Breathe in...breathe out
And let it be
If you can't push the river
And you can't ford the stream
Give it up, let it go
Stand back so it can flow
Give the Universe some time to work its magic
In a while you will know
Sometimes the only way to grow
Is to simply give it up and let it go
If your sanity is hanging
By one single thread
And your passion for living
Has turned into dread
Breathe in...breathe out
And bow your head
If you have no momentum
And you can't forge ahead
Give it up, let it go
Stand back so it can flow
Give the Universe some time to work its magic
In a while you will know
Sometimes the only way to grow
Is to simply give it up and let it go
Breathe in, breathe out
Take another route
Feel the awesome sense of peace throughout
Give it up, let it go
Stand back so it can flow
Give the Universe some time to work its magic
In a while you will know
Sometimes the only way to grow
Is to simply give it up and let it go
