WIND BLOWIN'

ON MY FACE

SIDEWALK FLYIN'

BENEATH MY BIKE

A FIVE YEAR OLD'S

FIRST TASTE

OF WHAT FREEDOM'S

REALLY LIKE

HE WAS RUNNIN'

RIGHT BESIDE ME

HIS HAND HOLDIN'

ON THE SEAT

I TOOK A DEEP BREATH

AND HOLLERED

AS I HEADED

FOR THE STREET

YOU CAN LET GO NOW

DADDY

YOU CAN LET GO

OH I THINK I'M READY

TO DO THIS ON MY OWN

IT'S STILL A LITTLE BIT

SCARY

BUT I WANT YOU

TO KNOW

I'LL BE OKAY NOW

DADDY

YOU CAN LET GO

I WAS STANDIN'

AT THE ALTAR

BETWEEN THE TWO

LOVES OF MY LIFE

TO ONE I'VE BEEN

A DAUGHTER

TO ONE I SOON

WOULD BE A WIFE

WHEN THE PREACHER

ASKED

WHO GIVES THIS WOMAN

DADDY'S EYES FILLED UP

WITH TEARS

HE KEPT HOLDIN' TIGHTLY

TO MY ARM

'TIL I WHISPERED

IN HIS EAR

YOU CAN LET GO NOW

DADDY

YOU CAN LET GO

OH I THINK I'M READY

TO DO THIS ON MY OWN

IT STILL FEELS

A LITTLE BIT SCARY

BUT I WANT YOU

TO KNOW

I'LL BE OKAY NOW

DADDY

YOU CAN LET GO

IT WAS KILLIN' ME TO SEE

THE STRONGEST MAN

I EVER KNEW

WASTIN' AWAY

TO NOTHIN'

IN THAT HOSPITAL ROOM

YOU KNOW HE'S ONLY

HANGIN' ON FOR YOU

THAT'S WHAT

THE NIGHT NURSE SAID

MY VOICE AND HEART

WERE BREAKIN'

AS I CRAWLED UP

IN HIS BED

AND SAID

YOU CAN LET GO NOW

DADDY

YOU CAN LET GO

YOUR LITTLE GIRL

IS READY

TO DO THIS ON MY OWN

IT'S GONNA BE

A LITTLE BIT SCARY

BUT I WANT YOU

TO KNOW

I'LL BE OKAY NOW

DADDY

YOU CAN LET GO

YOU CAN LET GO
