LET GO


LET GO


Let go and tell me all your secrets that no one else knows.
Take me to your special places that no one else goes.
Let go and bring me to your darkness and make me see the light.
Show me things that are bad and how to do them right.

Let go and run with me to the edge of sanity.
Let’s walk the ledge overlooking reality.
Somewhere between insanity and reality lies all the things I crave.
I want to devour all these things before I’m laid in my grave.

Let go so all your fantasies will be mine and mine will be yours.
Then for whatever haunts our souls we will be our own cures.
Let go and show me your demons and I will show you mine.
When I look at you all I see are angels all in a line.

I want to go down in the valley and drink from your fountain of love.
Then climb up the mountains to your waiting lips above.
Let go and show me the fire that burns deep inside.
Then hold me tight and take me for a ride.
Look me in the eyes so I can know what you know.
Let go and touch me where you want to be touched up top and down below.
Let go of what’s holding you back and speak to me soft and slow.
Tell me where you want to be and where you want to go.

I know your soul has been locked up in a cage.
In your book of life I want to help you turn a new page.
Let go and show me the spot that will set your soul free.
Show me your lock because I’m sure I have the key.

Let go and strip away the mask that hides you from the world.
Strip away the shell that leaves nothing but a bright shiny pearl.
Let go and strip away all your inhibitions and fear.
When you’re cold, try me on and everything will be clear.

Let go of the tiger that you keep locked up inside.
Let go of your past and all the times you cried.
Before you can move on to something new there’s something you should know.
To have a new love in your life . . . first you have to let go.
