"Let Her Go": For a World Full of Strong Women

Terence Stone


The beautiful song, "Let Her Go", by Jan Garrett has been a favourite of mine for many years. It speaks to me of letting go with difficulty of my own daughter as she became a woman of great strength and independence. She is now making a difference in the world. But no matter the circumstnces in which we find ourselves forced to "let go", I hope the music and lyrics of this song are inspirational and comforting.

She's just as pretty as a picture, glowing thru the years
Light and shadow, all woven together
She sends you her love forever, and a song to bless your soul
Singing in her bright spirit, you can feel it, hear it
Let her go.....let her dance.....Let her run through the willows in the wind
Let her sing.....and take her chances
Let her fancy free her soul
Let her go.....let her fly.....Let her throw back her head with laughter
Let her by, don't try to follow after.....Let her go
She was the sun and the moon in the garden of your heart
The lifeline you could always come home to
And now it's her turn to venture into new worlds of her own
So let your whole life caress her, let heaven bless her
Let her go.....let her dance.....Let her run through the willows in the wind
Let her sing.....and take her chances
Let her fancy free her soul
Let her go.....let her fly.....Let her throw back her head with laughter
Let her by, don't try to follow after.....Let her go
Caught in a body of circumstance, this day is too small for her soul
She'll slip out into the silence of a starry night,Barefoot all the way home
Let her go, let her fly.........say goodbye..........Let her go
