Let him go.
Can you hold a river
In your hands
Can you catch the wind
With your fingers?
Let him go.
Let him flow
Let the sunset mourn him
Let him glow.
Feel him in your song
Where does he belong?
Not with you.
You cannot lose
What you never wanted
I cannot lose
What l never had.
I must have been mad.
Let him go.
My prayers will follow you
Lest my love swallow you –
I’ll let you go.
