Crystal Shawanda : You Can Let Go Lyrics

Wind blowing on my face
Sidewalk flying beneath my bike
A five year old's first taste
Of what freedom's really like

He was running right beside me
His hand holding on the seat
I took a deep breath and hollered
As I headed for the street

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 a little bit scary but I want you to know
I'll be okay now, daddy, you can let go

I was standing 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 holding tightly to my arm
'Til I whispered in his ear

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 feels a little bit scary but I want you to know
I'll be okay now, daddy, you can let go

It was killing me to see the strongest man I ever knew
Wasting away to nothing in that hospital room
You know he's only hanging on for you

That's what the night nurse said
My voice and heart were breaking
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

The first time I heard this song was on my way home from seeing my dad on Fathers Day.
I cried all the way home. Called my dad and told him how much I loved him and thought he was #1.

i love this song! my dad died when i was eight. i first heard it today in the basketball locker room at school and had to leave cause i didn't wanna cry in front of my teammates. what hit home with me was that if i had known enough of what was going on when my dad died to say "you can let go. i'm ready.", i couldn't have. cause i wasn't ready. i'll never get to have my dad walk me down the isle. he'll never know who i married or what i did in life till i get to Heaven. i'd give anything to have him back, ....i wasn't ready to let go. i'm still not. but i love this song.

this song really hits home with me. I was only 17 when my daddy went to heaven on may 7, 2002 due to congestive heart failure and kidney failure. he was sick for a very long time, but he held on for me and my sister and mom. I was there the day he passed, and because he was hurting, i kept saying, "daddy you can let go." and even though he's much better off now, I was a daddys girl all the way. we were fishing buddies and he even taught me to ride my bike. but unfortunately he missed out on my highschool graduation and won't be there to give me away when i marry the love of my life, but i'm sure he'll be watching from above just as i'm sure he did when i got my diploma. I love you daddy and I miss you!!

This song also hits home for me as it does for so many others. My daddy taught me to ride a bike, walked me down the aisle (i have a picture of me between the two loves of my life), and I was also there as my daddy took his last breath. I use to cry when I first heard this song and my daddy was just starting feeling bad and we didnt know what was wrong and I could not imagine ever telling my daddy he could let go and living the rest of my life without him. He was diagnosed with Mesothelioma (cancer), and passed away July 9th 2008, not even a month after diagnosis. It was a hard disease to watch a loved one suffer from....I am just thankful he was saved days before his diagnosis. His last request to me was to make sure my mom got saved, and this past Sunday she was....now I at least have a comfort of knowing we will all be together again for ETERNITY. It is also hard because my son is just 8 months old, and my dad made the comment of how he would not be around to see him grow up, my baby will miss out. Thank you for this song, even though it is so hard to listen to, but it was played at his funeral and hits me hard everytime...I still can't believe he is gone....

I just lost my dad a few weeks short of his 87th birthday. He has always been so physically fit that it was a shock, too sudden, too quick. I couldn't believe these words though cause it summed up so much especially of what I was thinking and feeling at the end. It will be more than a little bit scary dad but I will be ok cause I know you will always be with me in spirit. I love you and miss you so much X

This is BEAUTIFUL.. I just lost my Father to his battle with Cancer and all thats said in this song brings so many memories to heart..
My Dad taught me to ride a bike and he walked me down the aisle on my wedding day, and I was with him on his last good day on earth and our last words to each other were "I LOVE YOU! <3"
Thank-You for this song
