Teach Me the Art of Letting Go

A song I wrote through experience....

For many years we've toyed now

With the thought of me and you

I guess that was just me anyway

The dream I wouldn't make come true

I'll catch you in my world once in a while

Long enough to turn my head

You'd show me how you're my everything

Then to walk another direction instead

 

(Chorus)

Won't you teach me the art of letting go

I'm tired of hanging on

My world keeps seeing you pass on by

And I can't feel you when you're gone

You've gotten so good at walking away

That there's nothing else to hold on to

Teach me the art of letting go

So I can finish letting go of you

 

Schools been out for years now

I still can't find my way

I thought I felt you, but in the distance

You went somewhere else to play

For a minute we got to dance though

The dance, it didn't last so long

I still hear your beautiful voice

But the words were a different song

 

Time goes by and I see you again

Once more you've melted me

I held you like I was always meant

Life was what it should be

Now theres never been anything bad between us

I hope this always remains to be

I look at the love we've always had

While again you slip away from me

 

Teach me the art.....
