Needing to make a decision to leave past behind.
I am a songwriter. I do not sing on any of the songs posted. I find singers to sing my songs. I am interested in writing Christian and Country lyrics.
Story behind the song
I wrote this just out of the spur of the moment. The chrous came to me and everything followed. It is about a woman telling the man she is to leave the past behind.
Lyrics
You Need to Let Her Go
(Verse)
Will I ever be like her? Will you think of me the same?
How can I be sure; you'll forget her name
I know you miss her so; you loved her very much
But I need you to know, I also crave your touch
(Chorus)
You need to let her go; life is way too short
It's me you need to show; I have your full support
I've been here for you; I gave you all my love
My love for you is true; you're all that I think of
(Verse)
It’s been four long years, since you let her go
You still cry those tears; your feelings they still show
How long is it going to take, to get her off your mind?
Do it for my sake and leave your past behind
(Chorus)
(Verse)
She broke your heart back then; she left you high and dry
Time and time again, she would make you cry
But now that she is gone, you've moved on with your life
What is it that's so wrong, for me to be your wife?
(Verse)
I've been waiting here so long; I've been a patient girl
It's here that you belong, right here in my own world
So I'm telling you right now, I'm giving you this chance
You need to let her go, or this is our last dance
(Chrous)
(Outro)
But I won't wait forever
I'm just like a flower
I need to be watered
Or else I will falter
