"LOVER PLEASE LET ME GO"
My gifts have all been opened
But their precious wonder gone
I have emptied out my heart
I have lived too long
Please don't let your sorrow show
Lover please let me go
They've all grown up and I've grown old
But our blessings left in place
Lover let me keep control
My darling as I face
My time has come this I know
Lover please let me go
Hold my hand like you've held my heart
Say you understand
What once was wrong is now all right
Lover let me go tonight
Lover let me go
I must step in my abyss
We know I can't live like this
Don't ask what we can never know
Lover let your last tears flow
Let me leave you gently now
Lover please let me go
Hold my hand like you've held my heart
Say you understand
What once was wrong is now all right
Lover let me go tonight
Lover let me go
