Wind blowin' on my face
Sidewalk flyin' beneath my bike
A five year-old's first taste
Of what freedom's really like
He was runnin' right beside me
His hand holdin' on the seat
I took a deep breath and hollered
As I headed for the street

Chorus
You can let go now, Daddy
You can let go
Oh, I think I'm ready
To do this on my own
(It's still) (It still feels) a little bit scary
But I want you to know
I'll be okay now, Daddy
You can let go

I was standin' at the altar
Between the two loves of my life
To one I've been a daughter
To one I soon would be a wife
When the preacher asked,
'Who gives this woman?'
Daddy's eyes filled up with tears
He kept holdin' tightly to my arm
'Til I whispered in his ear

(Repeat Chorus)

It was killin' me to see
The strongest man I ever knew
Wastin' away to nothin'
In that hospital room
'You know he's only hangin' on for you'
That's what the night nurse said
My voice and heart were breakin'
As I crawled up in his bed, and said

You can let go now, Daddy
You can let go
Your little girl is ready
To do this on my own
It's gonna be a little bit scary
But I want you to know
I'll be okay now, Daddy
You can let go
You can let go

  • To the young ladies out there who still have their daddys, Always hug your daddy. Don't be afraid to show him attention & always tell him that you love him, because there will be a day that you will no longer have him. You'll wish you had more time with him. - My father died last year & I miss him everyday. I miss his phone calls, jokes & his attention. I was his angel. I see other girls who don't appreciate the time they have with their father. What I wouldn't give to hear my dads voice again.

  • i get mad when people say oh ya my dad like 30 he aint dying anytime soon! :o! omg life is crazy anything can happen you know he can have a stroke nobody to young for that right! you see this people dying when they are born is that young enough for you just watch that new and you'll see :(
