Don Williams - Learn To Let It Go lyrics

There's a young man, sit's by the river
Got his head held down in his hands
There's a lost love in every teardrop
And reasons that he just don't understand

There's a dirt road that runs by the river
Comes an old man, stepping high
With a soft voice and kind intentions
He said
Son you know you're too young to cry
Some things were meant to just roll by

You've got to learn to let it go
When love lets you down learn to let it go
So you don't miss the one
Waiting to be found
With a love that's going to bring you around
Only love is going to bring you around

He said, now I know it's hard to imagine
That one day you won't feel so bad
I know you're going to take comfort
From this experience that I had
There was a young girl, a raving beauty

I loved her with a love deep and wide
But when I lost her to another
That's when I found the momma of my child
God bless the momma of my child

You've got to learn to let it go
When love lets you down learn to let it go
So you don't miss the one
Waiting to be found
With a love that's going to bring you around
Only love is going to bring you around

You've got to learn to let it go
When love lets you down learn to let it go
So you don't miss the one
Waiting to be found
With a love that's going to bring you around
Only love is going to bring you around

Got to learn to let it go
