[“The Hardest Part of Letting Go”] is about when I met my wife. She said, “We’ve been married 17 years, you’ve never written a song about me.” And I said “Well, I have actually, the love songs I’ve written.

Part I: The Hardest Part of Letting Go
[Verse 1]
Such a pretty face, radiant
I saw you, across the room
I knew I had to have you
Thus started the chase

[Chorus]
But I learned long ago

Let it go, let it go
The hardest part of letting go
Is saying goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
Part II: Sealed with a Kiss
[Verse 2]
Fettered away in a makeshift cell
Beneath the venomous moonlight
I unleash my plan to watch you fail
The one I held so high
[Refrain]
Go to sleep my love
Taste my sweet revenge on your lips
It's sealed with a kiss
[Verse 3]
I return to the masquerade ball
And leave the long figure weeping
Stone by stone, immured in the wall
Forever left in safekeeping
[Refrain]
Go to sleep my love
Taste my sweet revenge on your lips
It's sealed with a kiss
Part I: The Hardest Part of Letting Go
[Chorus]
But I learned long ago
If you love someone you have to let it go
Let it go, let it go
The hardest part of letting go
Is saying goodbye
Goodbye, goodbye
[Outro]
Goodbye, let it go
