Part of Letting Go

Lyrics

She's got her suitcase packed up Had to borrow daddy's pickup It's loaded down with memories of the past Momma's crying in the driveway Daddy holds it in and just waves Shakes his head and says, "They grow up so fast" They realize that good things never last But it's the part of letting go It's part of the unknown It's being strong and moving on But holding onto hope It's the part of love that knows That love keeps a loving on It's not the end It's the part of letting go Sitting there in the waiting room Doctor says she's leavin' soom Been his best friend for more than fifty years Tryies his best to say goodbye Always thought he'd be the first to die She slips away, he's fighting back the tears But her memory gives him strength to face his fears But it's the part of letting go It's part of the unknown It's being strong and moving on But holding onto hope It's the part of love that knows That love keeps a loving on It's not the end It's the part of letting go It's life, it's chance It's the perfect slow dance It's holding on with both of your hands It's the great release It's the fall that gives you wings It's the part of letting go It's part of the unknown It's being strong and moving on But holding onto hope It's the part of love that knows That love keeps a loving on It's not the end It's the part of letting go
