Let It Go
I saw you the other day,
I know you saw me too, but you looked the other
way
It's all right, we've been there before
Just when you get to the front, they come a-knockin' at your back
door.
I don't know why you make it so tough,
Taking all you can get, but there's never enough
It's all right, we know we can't win
But day after day, we get back up and do it again.
I know what I like
I know what's right for me
You're gonna be OK, just get out of your own way
Sometimes, to make it stay, you gotta let it go
I had a dream last night,
We were walking together in the blue starlight
So beautiful, we had to agree
To take one down, so all the world could see
We reached up and put it away,
Started charging admission, got to pay to play
The people came from near and far,
But our opening night was the last night
we saw our star
I know what I like
I know what's right for me
You're gonna be OK, just get out of your own way
Sometimes, to let it shine, you gotta let it go.
Within your mind, is all that you need
This world's the door, and you are the key
You already know all you need to know
It's in the palm of your hand, but can you let it go?
I saw you the other day,
I know you saw me too, but you looked the other way
It's all right, we've been there before
Just when you get to the front, they come
a-knockin' at your back door.
I know what I like
I know what's right for me
You're gonna be OK, just get out of your own way
Sometimes, to make it stay, you gotta let it go.
