She'll take the
Painting in the
Hallway
The one she did
In Junior High
And that old lamp
Up in the attic
She'll need some
Light to study by
She's had
Eighteen years
To get ready
For this day
She should be
Past the tears
She's cried some
Anyway
Oh letting go
There's nothing
In her way now
Letting go
There's room enough
To fly
Even though
She spent her
Whole life
Waiting
It's never easy
Letting go
Mother sits down
At the table
So many things
She'd like to do
Spend more time
Out in the
Garden
Now she can
Get those books
Read too
She's had
Eighteen years
To get ready
For this day
She should be
Past the tears
She cried some
Anyway
Oh oh
Letting go
There's nothing
In her way now
Letting go
There's room
Enough to fly
Even though
She spent her
Whole life waiting
It's never easy
Letting go..
Oh oh
Letting go
There's nothing
In her way now
Letting go
There's room
Enough to fly
Even though
She spent her
Whole life
Waiting
It's never easy
Letting go
It's never easy
Letting go..
