It was a day in July, with a sunset like fire
I had you in my arm
Those first fragile words, some kind of conversation
Your life had just begun

Go, you don’t need to hurry
I’ll pretend not to worry
I’ll be near you when you call

So walk with the wind behind you
And the sun in your face
Smile, it makes everything worthwhile

Every step along the way, every night and every day
I’ll be there learning to let go, oh-oh-oh learning to let go
I don’t wanna say goodbye but I’ve got to let you fly
And so I’m learning to let go, oh-oh-oh learning to let go

Funny how time passes by
Now and then we sit together
You ask for my advice

I dont have all the answers
Just do your best and
Don’t lose that sparkle in your eyes

So walk with the wind behind you
And the sun in your face
Smile, it makes everything worthwhile

Every step along the way, every night and every day
I’ll be there learning to let go, oh-oh-oh learning to let go
I don’t wanna say goodbye but I’ve got to let you fly
And so I’m learning to let go, oh-oh-oh learning to let go

Life’s a rollercoster ride, once you’re up then your down
You may slip, you may slide, just get up off the ground
In times of trouble I will be there by your side
I know you’ll make it on your own

Every step along the way, every night and every day
I’ll be there learning to let go, oh-oh-oh learning to let go
I don’t wanna say goodbye but I’ve got to let you fly
I’m learning to let go
