Shawanda, Crystal - You Can Let Go Lyrics






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 ok 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
‘Till 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 ok 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 ok now, Daddy
You can let go
You can let go

    I've had a rough rough relationship with my Dad. We've clashed many times and had many fights but I am at a point in my life where I have the desire to love him to the best of my abilities. I think about all the things he's done for me, The life he gave me & the roof he has kept over my head and the food on my plate.
    My father, my hero and my best friend. Love you so much Dad ❤👪

    Its father's day today and we all know it will be my dad's last. He has been wasting away and near the end and it's just soooo hard to watch him suffer. 💔

  14. V.... ....

    The best song ever written for a father and daughter's relationship.

  15. R.... d....

    I'm not crying, your crying

  16. S.... F....

    We played this at My Daddy's funeral, I don't think there was a dry eye in the place.
    I will always be grateful to My Sister in law Pumpkin for telling My Awesome Hubby about this song.
    My Daddy had Parkinson's Disease, and he went to stand up,he thought he put both brakes on his wheelchair
    the chair swing away from him,he fell and broke his hip.
    If they would have left him alone,he would have come him.
    My Oldest Brother and his Wife were visiting Daddy,while they were there, The 3 of them were walking
    around the hospital. ( The floor he was on ) A nurse saw him, and told him to get back to bed..
    I don't know who was helping the men eat, in My Daddy's
    hospital room.
    She didn't stay to see if My Daddy swallowed the pudding, he aspirated.
    I didn't even know what that word meant.
    I can't remember how many days later Daddy passed away.
    They were were located at the bottom level of the hospital,they could have just run My Daddy
    over to Emergency. Oh No they had to call a friggin ambulance to take My Daddy around the hospital to Emergency
    If You are fortunate enough to have both parents still alive.
    Give them hugs, and most importantly tell them that You LOVE them.
    Bring Your Mom flowers,or take Your Parent's out for Supper .
    Just do something that has a lot of meaning,to Your parent

  17. V.... ....

    Only 5 months without my dad....It feels so lonely without him, it feels so sad that people keep telling me: "You look so much alike him" :'( although it's nice you know, looking alike a person you love. Miss you dad..so much.. it's hard to think you will not gonna be there, wedding, grandpa staff maybe, in the future... but I remember all those years you were there and it feels as if you've never gone.

  77. z.... b....

    had this play at my dads funeral nearly 4 years ago. . . I miss him more and more everyday xx

  78. F.... T....

    I lost my dad to pancreatic cancer when I was 2 years old and grew up with an extremely hostile step dad. My dad was an exceptional man who always put his family first and I am so incredibly heartbroken that I didn't get very much time with him. He died within 4 months of his diagnosis. I feel for all of you who have lost your dads ♡♡ There's a void in my life that can never be filled but I know he's watching over me. It's so hard for me to watch father/daughter dances and know I'll never have my dad walk me down the aisle or watch me graduate from University. But I'm lucky that he was in my life at all. Love you so much daddy rip ♡

    F.... T....

    sorry for you loss I lost my father to Cancer in 2006

    I lost my father 10yrs ago.....the nurse said the same thing to me while I was holding his hand watching him die.. but he didn't want to go- and I didn't want to let go.... it was just out of our hands!! He was my hero, my idol,my rock...my world will never be the same without him in it. I will miss him everyday till I see him again--&I know he will be waiting for me>. This is the most "beautifully sad" song I've ever heard.... everytime I listen I cry - tears of love !!

  96. a.... f....

    Holy, these comments are so sad, I've never had a father figure, growing up my mom had already had two kids and she's been raising us alone for 14 years, I've never seen someone so strong, the closest thing I've had to a father figure is my grandpa, and watching him pass is going to be really hard on my family..😥

  97. I.... S....

    I always cry over this song now... My dad has cancer and it cant be removed :( He is in so much pain sometimes that I can't stay in the house. I lock myself in my room knowing there is nothing I can do to help him. He is in the hospital now :(

    I.... S....

    tell your dad to start flooding his boy with pure orange juice from oranges and ginger juice from pure ginger... increase his body ph to higher alkaline and the cance cells will begin to starve and disapear.. dont hide in the room be strong

  98. R.... A....

    Reading the comments was not a good idea. Nope.
    Not.At.All.

    R.... A....

    Same I am Iike crying so much rn ☹️

    R.... A....

    I shall go no further...
