She stepped away into twilight
Didn't have the strength to fight
Couldn't hold and let it go
Like she ran against quicksand
Didn't have the force to stand
Couldn't help I didn't know
Now I have to let her go
It helps me to know
Now she's in a better place
Now that she let it go
She's smiling with her lovely face
Even if it's hard
For me to understand
It could ease the pain
To know she's in a promised land
Never want to say goodbye
Couldn't bear to see you cry
Never thought you'd let it go
All the thoughts that come to mind
How long we've been walking blind
Couldn't see your sorrow grow
Never thought you'd let it go
It helps me to know
Now she's in a better place
Now that she let it go
She's smiling with her lovely face
Even if it's hard
For me to understand
It could ease the pain
To know she's in a promised land
If this is not the end my friend
It's good to know we'll meet again
A tear of joy a tear of grief
It's all a matter of belief
It helps me to know
Now she's in a better place
Now that she let it go
She's smiling with her lovely face
Even if it's hard
For me to understand
It could ease the pain
To know she's in a promised land
I look at you with my eyes closed
Where are you now when I need you most
I hope you hear me when I say
You're still with me everyday
