lyrics

Weʼve been a lot of places seen a lot of things
But now I Þ nd it in my heart just to let this go
But know that I have no malice for you
In its own way what we had was true
Its time was the moment and that moment has gone
I guess the best solution for us is to now move on
And Þ nd better places and spaces and greener pastures
Youʼre gonna Þ nd that man
That can give you lots of laughter
And joy with very little pain
Youʼll grow into a woman/ With you thereʼs much to gain
Still it remains that this isnʼt what is meant to be
With things to learn about myself
The universe sent you to me
And I grow and I Þ nd value in myself
I find that love that can be given by no one else
I find a man capable of good if he only could
Let go and let love
Chorus
Afterr the loving/ When it all seems to fade
After the loving/ Standing looking at the mess we made
After the loving/ All thatʼs left is memories of times we had
But we gotta let it go
ʻCause sometimes the future donʼt look so bad
ʻCause sometimes the future donʼt look so bad
Never regret a moment that we spent
What happened needed to happen
for greater things to come
One day weʼll look back and cherish this time we spent
Deep inside our heartʼs special place
What we had I wanted to last/ But it canʼt work out that way
I guess all we do now is gather and try to move on
So take with you the memory of the good times we had
Take with you joy in the rising of the morning sun
I canʼt cry anymore because I promised not to
I still hurt now and then because I havenʼt forgot you
You ainʼt the Mary to my Jesus anymore
This new woman cleans my feet the way that you used to
When I resurrect she wipes away all my tears
Iʼm feeling all these feelings that sometimes I canʼt explain
So I try to find a place where I can go alone
But youʼre always there with me because I still love you
Chorus
