She'll take the painting in the hallway,
The one she did in jr. high
And that old lamp up in the attic,
She'll need some light to study by.
She's had 18 years to get ready for this day
She should be past the tears, she cries some anyway
Oh oh letting go
There's nothing in the way now,
Oh letting go, there's room enough to fly
And even though, she's spent her whole life waiting,
It's never easy letting go.
Mother sits down at the table
So many things she'd like to do
Spend more time out in the garden
Now she can get those books read too.
She's had 18 years to get ready for this day
She should be past the tears, she cries some anyway.
Oh oh letting go
There's nothing in the way now,
Oh letting go, there's room enough to fly
And even though, she's spent her whole life waiting,
It's never easy letting go.
Oh oh letting go
There's nothing in the way now,
Oh letting go, there's room enough to fly
And even though, she's spent her whole life waiting,
It's never easy letting go.(Sara Evans/Ron Harmon/Aimee Mayo)
You don't know what you do
When you look at me that way
You don't how my heart breaks
Everytime you say my name
You don't see all the tears
That I cry in the dark
You don't hear how I pray
That you're safe when we're apart
Everytime we kiss you don't know
How you steal a piece of my soul
You don't know how it feels
To be the one who loves the most
How hard it is not to beg you to stay
Then watch you go
Oh, you say it's all in my head
But to me it seems so real
No, you don't know how it feels
You might think you do
But you don't
Hey!
And everytime we kiss you don't know
How you steal a piece of my soul
You don't know how it feels
To be the one who loves the most
How hard it is not to beg you to stay
Then watch you go
Oh, you say it's all in my head
But to me it seems so real
No, you don't know it feels
You might think you do
But you don't
No, you don't know how it feels
You might think you do
But you don't
