Lyrics
LET IT GO
YouÕre holding onÉ
Is this the only way to ride your soul?
Will work really set you free?
Arbeit macht frei?
Beyond these gates are promises
You find so hard to believe in
When headstones pave the street
Well faithful one,
The change Has begun
You canÕt go back
To that place
Where time is from
Let it go, let it go
What you have you cannot own
Let it go, let it go
Is what you see all that you know?
Let it go, let it go
Of all youÕve done and what you owe
Let it go, let it go
You will never have anything to let go
Until you let it go
Are you sure after all youÕve seen
You still want more Than
Two crippled hands could ever hold?
Can a dreamer learn to see between
Now and then and Still,
work the earth like itÕs gold?
Could this be the end?
YouÕve waited for it
To free your soul, again
And rise far above it, then
Let it go, let it go
Of what you want and all you need
Let it go, let it go
Golden fields blowing in the breeze
Let it go, let it go
When youÕre burdened then IÕm free
Let it go, let it go
You will never have anything to let go
To let go, oh you gottaÕ let it go
Let it go, let it go
Let it go, let it go
You will never have anything to let go
Until you let it go
Your first words to me
Were beautiful like poetry
