Lyrics
LET ?EM GO c. 1991 Sally Fingerett
Let ?em go, let ?em be
They?d maybe like to have a look around, to see what they can see
Let ?em go, don?t make them stay
There?s an open door, waiting for them, they?d like to go that way.
You?ve got to let them go
You?ve got to let them go
You?ve got to let them go
When they want to go.....
Don?t keep them here, there?s nothing you can say
It?s a selfish heart that longs to love for one more day
They need to go, they see the light
Shining on the silence, the grace, the peace of mind.
You?ve got to let them go
You?ve got to let them go
You?ve got to let them go
When they want to go.....
Set them free, cut them loose
Give the gift of kindness a traveler can use.
Let ?em go, let ?em be
Send them off with love, send them off with dignity.
You?ve got to let them go
You?ve got to let them go
You?ve got to let them go
When they want to go.....
