They’ve just lain in your arms,
but they’ re growing up fast,
their innocent smile
is nothing that will last.
Feeling sheltered and protected,
having a home to return.
They’ve always been around you,
but now you’ll have to learn
You have to let it go
have to let it go, have to let it go
You’ve met when you were young,
shared your bed and your thoughts.
Together you grew older,
but you’ll be alone that’s what you’re taught.
You’ve started your life
full of passion – feeling strong.
You never thought you’d end up
in a body that feels so wrong
You have to let it go, have to let it go
have to let it go, have to let it go
