ALABAMA - I Love You Enough To Let You Go lyrics

rate me

I've rehearsed this day a thousand times

I've played this scene out in my mind

You spread your wings, you need to fly

It breaks my heart to say goodbye

These arms of mine wanna pull you close

But I love you enough to let you go

My mind goes back to memories

Of pony rides upon my knee

First day of school, your brand new bike

And football games on Friday nights

And through the years I've watched you grow

And I love you enough to let you go

Don't look back when you drive away

I don't wanna change your mind

I know in all your eighteen years

You've never seen your daddy cry

So many things I wanna say

You'll meet new friends, you'll be okay

I'll pray for you out on your own

But don't forget your way back home

And though I may not let it show

I love you enough to let you go

Don't look back when you drive away

I don't wanna change your mind

I know in all your eighteen years

You've never seen your daddy cry

These arms of mine wanna pull you close

But I love you enough to let you go
