Sometimes Love Is Letting Go

My mama always told me
"If you truly love someone, don't hold on too tight
Sometimes love is letting go"

You fall in hard even though
He shows you nothing in return
But you still give everything 'cause you've yet to learn
That if he's yours, one day you'll know
'Cause sometimes love is letting go

You know my Dad always told me
that men don't show their feelings easy
So I said "Hey Dad, the times I've seen you cry
Have been the most precious to me"

Oo, sometimes love is letting go
And when you're scared, scared to let love show
And so afraid your heart will break
Just let it happen for your heart's sake
Sweet emotion, you got to let it flow
'Cause sometimes love (sometimes love) is letting go

And when I finally grew up I fell in love, but it didn't last
We just didn't belong together any more
And I had to be strong and say to myself
"Hey girl, sometimes love is letting go"

Oo, sometimes love is letting go
And we were flying high, now I'm lying low
In your arms like a stranger (stranger) baby you're so cold
The truth is plain but rarely told
You gotta stop saying "yes" (yes) when you mean "no"
'Cause if he's yours, one day you'll know
Sweet emotion, just got to let it flow
Sometimes love (sometimes love) is letting go

You gotta stop saying "yes" (yes) when you mean "no"
Sometimes love (sometimes love) sometimes love is letting go

Oh...
Sometimes love
