Joe Cocker - Letting go lyrics

But you can't disguise

The light that shines so brightly

Is gone from your eyes

It wasn't my mistake

It's nothing you did wrong

Sometimes learning to surrender

Is the same as being strong

Letting go

Letting go

The hardest part is knowing

That I'll miss you so

I'd like to wish you well

Oh but it hurts you know

Sometimes doing what is right

Means letting go

Yeah

As we walk away

Leaving it all behind

I hope we will be satisfied

With what we'll find

And if it's not all you want

I hope it's good enough

To make it worth

The precious things

We're giving up

Letting go

Letting go

The hardest part is knowing

That I'll miss you so

I'd like to wish you well

Hey but it hurts you know

Sometimes doing what is right

Means letting go

Sometimes late at night

I can't believe the things I hear

An angel comes to me

And whispers in my ears

Saying there's a time to read

And a time of the soul

A time for holding on

And a time

Just for

Letting go

Letting go

The hardest part is knowing

That I'll miss you so

I'd like to wish you well

Girl but it hurts you know

Sometimes doing what is right

Means letting go

I'd like to wish you well

Oh but it hurts you know

Sometimes doing what is right

Means letting go

Oh
