I know this can’t go on It hurts, but has to be I need to be alone Can’t do this, can’t you see? I need to make this change The stress is killing me I need to, just to sleep I just have to be free. You didn’t do me wrong Just more than I can take You gave your best, I know It’s better for our sake. I’ve not done what I should I should have been aware That this was going to end Even though it seems unfair. You gave me all your love And made me feel so much But now I’ve realized Right now, it’s not enough. I need to spend my time My daughter needs me more I have to be her Father Be with her, like before. She needs all that I have She must be number one She’s my whole world to me When all is said and done. I know she needs me more She told me, as she cried She missed her Daddy’s time I saw it in her eyes. But you deserve to know You’re wonderful, your great Maybe this is better now If this isn’t our fate. I cannot keep us going I shouldn’t, if there’s doubt For now, I need my time alone So I can figure out. What is best for my life And what my daughter needs And end financial struggle It’s how this has to be. Letting Go, is difficult I love you, so you know This will be so hard on you I’m sorry, but it’s so. I hate I have to hurt you And say these words I say I’m sorry, I can’t help it I’m Letting Go today. I know you will get over me I’m sorry I can’t stay I have to do the right thing I’m Letting Go today. I know you’ll likely hate me For hurting you this way I never meant for this to come Still, I’m Letting Go today. Making sure I say this Understand this please, I pray? Know that I still love you But I’m Letting Go today.
