I will let you go

Put your hands in the water
Watch them go under
Put your hand to the light
Watch the light… come through

And I will let you go
And I will let you go

Put your time on the table
See who’ll sit down with you
Give your love to the ones
Who offer you bruise
After bruise, after bruise

And I will let you go
And I will let you go
And I will let you go

How we play fight
As we dance slow
The smile you makes
Saying ‘yes’ meaning ‘no’
Is so grey, so faint
The words stray in your mouth
With an ache

I’m standing in the water
With the light on my shoulder
The weight of the doubt
Turned me to glass
I’m through living in question
Dreaming the answers
No more paving the present
With pain from my past

And I will let you go
And I will let you go
And I will let you go
And I will let you go
Ohhhhhh
