Letting You Go Kindly (Mental Health)

[Verse 1] I kept your coat upon the hook Your coffee cup beside the sink I read the ending of our book And let it sit, and let it think [Pre-Chorus] It's alright to hold on for a while It's alright to cry and then to smile [Chorus] I'm letting you go kindly Like a leaf upon the stream Not with anger, not with blaming Just with thanks for what has been I'm letting you go kindly And I'm keeping what was true There is room inside my heart now For the sun to shine on through [Verse 2] The house is quiet in the dawn I open windows, let in air Some memories still linger on I wrap them gently, keep them there [Pre-Chorus] It's alright to hold on for a while It's alright to cry and then to smile [Chorus] I'm letting you go kindly Like a leaf upon the stream Not with anger, not with blaming Just with thanks for what has been I'm letting you go kindly And I'm keeping what was true There is room inside my heart now For the sun to shine on through [Bridge] Goodbye can be a soft word Goodbye can be a prayer I wish you every good thing Wherever you are there [Final Chorus] I'm letting you go kindly Like a leaf upon the stream Not with anger, not with blaming Just with thanks for what has been I'm letting you go kindly And I'm keeping what was true There is room inside my heart now For the sun to shine on through [Outro] Letting you go kindly Letting the light come through
