The Hardest Part Is To Let Go

Let me tell you one more time
Don’t you give up till you find
It’s not easy to say goodbye
You may take it as suicide
In the haste I left behind
A little note to say I’m fine
Forget the things on your mind
When you read between the lines
The hardest part is to let go
I take my footsteps and shadow

If you smell that sweet perfume
Hanging round in your room
You may find me decomposed
Lying in my finest clothes
See the clock up on the wall
Reaching my final call
The long hand is ticking on
Wish I didn’t let you down
The hardest part is to let go
I take my footsteps and shadow

When you dial Nine-One-One
You will know it all is done
You just call an ambulance
That is covered in insurance
No, it’s not all negligence
And it’s not of ignorance
But it’s time to wipe the tears
I’m telling you in fifty years
The hardest part is to let go
I take my footsteps and shadow

You don’t have to call me a fool
What I do may not be cool
I have plenty more to say
And memories to dust away
I don’t leave you a fortune
But relieve you from pain
If you believe this but true
There’s no chance left for two
The hardest part is to let go
I take my footsteps and shadow

I can hear those voices sing
A prayer for the dying
I’m not alone in this heaven
Crossed the line of no return
I did this all just for you
I wouldn’t have if I could
Let me rest in eternal peace
And the rest is history
The hardest part is to let go
I take my footsteps and shadow
The hardest part is to let go
I take my footsteps and shadow
