Joe Cocker - The Letting Go lyrics

You can look away But you can't disguise The light that shines so brightly Is gone from your eyes It wasn't my mistake It's nothing you did wrong Sometimes learning to surrender Is the same as being strong Letting go Letting go The hardest part is knowing That I'll miss you so I'd like to wish you well Oh but it hurts you know Sometimes doing what is right Means letting go Yeah As we walk away Leaving it all behind I hope we will be satisfied With what we'll find And if it's not all you want I hope it's good enough To make it worth The precious things We're giving up Letting go Letting go The hardest part is knowing That I'll miss you so I'd like to wish you well Hey but it hurts you know Sometimes doing what is right Means letting go Sometimes late at night I can't believe the things I hear An angel comes to me And whispers in my ears Saying there's a time to read And a time of the soul A time for holding on And a time Just for Letting go Letting go The hardest part is knowing That I'll miss you so I'd like to wish you well Girl but it hurts you know Sometimes doing what is right Means letting go I'd like to wish you well Oh but it hurts you know Sometimes doing what is right Means letting go Oh.
