about

Written and sung by Jenny Goodspeed

lyrics

Let go of the rope that keeps me tethered to this life
Let go of the hope of ever shining in your eyes
Just once I wish you’d smile when I walk into a room
Let go of this rope
And do it soon

Let go of the night I waited for you to come home
Let go of the way my heart sank like a stone
Turned the porch light off and put on my Sunday best
Let go of that night

And when I see you again
We’ll exchange words and part as friends
And all the dreams I saved for that day
Will wash away.

Let go of the house that you left empty and pristine
Let go of the need to never, ever make a scene
Just barely glimpse the light as I come into my own
Let go of this house
It’s not a home

All the ways I tried to win you
All the words I did not say
Turn to dust and wash away
