Ben Sollee Letting Go
It’s a long, hard road
Through a rough edged land
To the softest part of a man
And it’s lined with stones
Tangled with regrets
That are just too hard to forget
There’s rusty signs
Overlooked on the way
To the heart of a troubled man
And you can loose yourself
In the deep, muddy ruts
Worn through by the pride of a man
But, letting go... ?
In a lonesome field
There’s a wild-eyed mare
Tied to the weight of a man
And she once ran free
With the wind in her hair
Breathing hard for the love of a man
He won’t let her be
She won’t let him rest
‘Till he learns how to forgive
But, letting go... ?
Forgiveness is a falling leaf
In the changing of the years
As it settles down to the cooling ground
Let it go
Let it go
Let it go
