Letting Go
How can your love hold me
When your face I can’t see?
How can it still fill my head
Each night when I go to bed?
Why do you seem so near
Although you are not here?
When will I finally be free
To let another love me?
Release your hold, set me free,
You can no longer be with me.
The time has come to let go
Though I’ll always love you so,
The grave has claimed you, dear.
You are no longer living here.
Death has torn us apart,
Please let go of my heart.
I am speaking these words to you
Because I think I am ready to
Begin a life with someone new,
Though I will always miss you.
