You know it wasn't so long ago when things weren't as we know
Back when I was younger, and had a hunger for all the things I didn't know

And I remember the day when I to went playout
And a bird flew down to my hand didn't want to leave it
When asked to keep I remember my dad saying son,
Let it go away

Hope that it comes back here to you someday

Just let it go away and if it comes back,
you know its here to stay

Since then I've gone through changes

Since then I've gone through life
Since then I found me a beautiful woman I thought could be my wife

She said she really me loves but she said she couldn't stay

She said I've got to go my love to find things my own way
So I..
Let her go away

Hope that she comes back here to me someday

I let her go away and if she comes back, I know she's here to stay

There's not always reasons for the things in life

But its comforting to know within you're mind

If you love something enough and you've done all that you can
If there's one thing I have known and learned first hand
Sometimes you have to just...

Let it go away

Hope that it comes back here to you someday

Just let it go away and if it comes back, you know it's here to stay

Let it go away and if it comes back, you know it's here to stay

Let it go
