Learn To Let It Go

(Writers: Mike Reid, Rory Bourke)



There's a young man, sits by the river

Got his head held down in his hands

There's a lost love in every teardrop

And reasons that he just don't understand.



There's a dirt road that runs by the river

Comes an old man, stepping high

With a soft voice and kind intentions

He said, son you know you're too young to cry

Some things were meant to just roll by.



Chorus:

You've got to learn to let it go,

When love lets you down

Learn to let it go,

So you don't miss the one waiting to be found

With a love that's going to bring you around

Only love is going to bring you around.

He said, now I know it's hard to imagine

That one day you wont feel so bad.

I know you're going to take comfort

From this experience that I had.

There was a young girl, a raving beauty

I loved her with a love deep and wide

But when I lost her to another

That's when I found the momma of my child

God bless the momma of my child.



Chorus:

You've got to learn to let it go,

When love lets you down

Learn to let it go,

So you don't miss the one waiting to be found

With a love that's going to bring you around

Only love is going to bring you around



Chorus:

You've got to learn to let it go,

When love lets you down

Learn to let it go,

So you don't miss the one waiting to be found

With a love that's going to bring you around

Only love is going to bring you around.
