Every night I lie awake
My thoughts come rolling in
Love is won, love is lost
And loves that might have been
I see the ghost of long lost hope
And shattered broken dreams I know it's time
To carry on It's harder than it seems
CHORUS
I gotta let it go, all the pain and strife
I gotta let it go, and move on with my life
I gotta let it go, it's time to let it be
I gotta let it go, and then I can be free
The times gone by,
I can't deny
They've left their mark on me
Don't understand the master plan
That only God can see
I need to know, I wanna go
And lock it all inside
I wonder why and say goodbye
And gather up my pride
CHORUS
I know I have the will to carry on
Life's made me strong
I've learned too much to turn my head away
I'm gonna stay
And brick by brick I'll build my life again
And I'll begin
To learn from all of my mistakes
Then let them fly away
I gotta let it go
I got to let it go,
I got to let it go,
I got to let it go, ohhh
(REPEAT)
CHORUS
