Mark Schultz - Learn To Let Go lyrics

rate me

I'm holding this picture - You drew when you were four -

It was one we proudly hung - On our refrigerator door -

I found it in the attic - In your old dresser drawer -

By a pillow that we made you - And a blanket that you had -

When we learned to chase the monsters - From underneath your bed -

And I remember -

How I learned how to hold you when you cried - I learned how to let you be strong -

Learned how to calm you in the dark - Learned how to listen with my heart -

I learned how to watch you grow - But how will I learn to let go -

And when I walk in your bedroom - The memories that I keep -

Are bedtime stories - And rocking you to sleep -

And as I held you - You'd drift off to dream - And I know

it might sound crazy - Now that you are grown -

But yesterday still feels - Like the day we brought you home -

And I remember -
