Letting Go

I can't mend your broken heart
I can't patch your skinned knees
I can't control the weather or
Whatever makes certain people mean

But I can hold my own in a good fight
Promise to always give you my best
Which may be better than tomorrow
When I have to pass the test

Sometimes it's too much to hope
When I'm feeling wise and not just old
There's one thing I've learned more than I know
It's about letting go
Letting go

I compare myself to everyone
And I still hate to lose
Wrestle with the devil
And end up with the blues

Then it all gets too heavy
And I'm crushed by the weight
Stuck where I don't want to be
I know that it's not you, it's me

Sometimes it's too much to hope
When I'm feeling wise and not just old
One thing I've learned more than I know
I can keep a little grace
Instead of trying to save face
I'll just roll with the flow
And start letting go
Letting go
I'll try letting go
Letting go
