Crystal Shawanda - You Can Let Go Lyrics

Artist: Crystal Shawanda

Album: Dawn Of A New Day

Genre: Country

  • Songwriters: Corey Batten, Kent Blazy, Rory Lee Feek

Wind blowing on my face
Sidewalk flying beneath my bike
A five year old's first taste
Of what freedom's really like

He was running right beside me
His hand holding on the seat
I took a deep breath and hollered
As I headed for the street

You can let go now, daddy, you can let go
Oh, I think, I'm ready to do this on my own
It's still a little bit scary but I want you to know
I'll be okay now, daddy, you can let go

I was standing at the altar
Between the two loves of my life
To one, I've been a daughter
To one, I soon would be a wife

When the preacher asked
"Who gives this woman?"
Daddy's eyes filled up with tears
He kept holding tightly to my arm
'Til I whispered in his ear

You can let go now, daddy, you can let go
Oh, I think, I'm ready to do this on my own
It's still feels a little bit scary but I want you to know
I'll be okay now, daddy, you can let go

It was killing me to see the strongest man I ever knew
Wasting away to nothing in that hospital room
You know he's only hanging on for you

That's what the night nurse said
My voice and heart were breaking
As I crawled up in his bed and said

You can let go now, daddy, you can let go
Your little girl is ready to do this on my own
It's gonna be a little bit scary but I want you to know
I'll be okay now, daddy, you can let go, you can let go

    This song has so much meaning for me and my siblings. I have two other sisters
    and two brothers and we lost our dad to cancer 6 yrs ago but it seems like
    yesterday, we were a very very close family, and it broke our hearts to see
    him suffer in his final days with all of us around him, from his kids to his
    grandchildren to his great grandchildren, we all loved him so so much and we
    lost him to bone cancer, so to us girls this song really hit home, to a man
    who gave his girls away, we miss and love you dad, and you will always and
    forever be in our thoughts and prayers everyday of the rest of our lives.

    Love always and forever your daughter, Laura, the baby of the family of 5 who
    is now 48yrs old.

    i love this song!!! it really hit me hard when i heard it though because my dad died when i was 13 years old. and i was i really close to him. but i had to move away from my family and didnt get to see him for 2 years and didnt get to say i love you before he died. i really love my daddy and he wont get to see me graduate and be there to walk me down the aisle and didnt get to see me be baptised. i love and really miss you daddy and i wasnt ready to let go.
