Here we stand Each of us afraid to make a sound Hoping love will turn this thing around And I know what I must do Chorus: So I will let you go Yes fly away my love Linger for awhile Live for a strangers smile And hope it is enough You'll return But I must let you go Sometimes Two steps back is just what lovers need Not knowing that it's love that makes us free So I'll be brave and retreat Chorus: Yes I will let you go Yes fly away my love Linger for awhile Live for a strangers smile And hope it is enough You'll return But I must let you go No it's not, no it's not fair darling Missing precious hours, precious days Making you figure out What I know to be true Love remains Chorus
