Let Me Go

In summer when the sun shines You watched me when I played In autumn when leaves fall I ran to you with joy In winter when it's cold here You tucked me in at night In springtime when flowers bloom You held my hand when I flew my kite But it's time to let me go I'm not your boy tonight Forever grateful to this day But now I'm my own shadow Let me go In the old days, the good times I knew you were invincible As time flies through divine eyes You're a shade more vulnerable Step aside now, don't cry now You know it's hard to say goodbye But it's time to let me go I'm not your boy tonight Forever grateful to this day But now I'm my own shadow And as the lion cub grows and leaves mum It's time to release me and let me move on You know that tomorrow I'll still be your son You know that I'll run home when things there get rough Let me go
