lyrics

Honor the ways of your father
Heed the words of your mother
Follow the spring into summer
Leave your fields when you're called to
I lead to follow and I hope to carry my old bones home

Hold the hands of your brothers
Heal the wounds of your sisters
Follow the fall into winter
Return home you're called
I leave tomorrow and I hope to marry the one I love

I'll let it go
Like a seed in the wind
Like water in my hand as I drift out from the shore
I'll let it go
Like tears in the rain
I knew you were gone before you said goodbye
I knew you were gone before you said goodbye

I know the truth when I see you
And I know you feel it too
If we die tomorrow that one night we had
It will be enough to know the truth was in our hearts

I'll let it go
Like a seed in the wind
Like water in my hand as I drift out from the shore
I'll let it go
Like tears in the rain
I knew you were gone before you said goodbye
I knew you were gone before you said goodbye

We breached for a time in our life
Waiting on something more to find
Hold me when I reach into the fire
We all need something more

I'll let it go
Like a seed in the wind
Like water in my hand as I drift out from the shore
I'll let it go
Like tears in the rain
I knew you were gone before you said goodbye
I knew you were gone before you said goodbye
