Cut the strings and turn the key
Fall into the open sea
Is this the way it has to be
Is this the way
Slip into an open mind
Close it shut then open wide
Slowly breathing in the tide
Careful not to choke inside
And I would let it go
I would let it go
And I would let it go
I would let it go
And I would let it go
I would let it go
And I would let it go
I would let it go
Long ago and far away
Was a boy who used to say
I'm not afraid of anything
I'm not afraid
But now the pain won't disappear
It stays inside and hides in fear
And everything's becoming clear
My time with you is drawing near
And I would let it go
I would let it go
And I would let it go
I would let it go
And I would let it go
I would let it go
And I would let it go
I would let it go
