Letting Go
Nianell Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It used to only be a whisper inside me
And I so often felt the need to hide it
Now I can't wait to let it out

It's taken long enough to find the real me
Because I've been blinded by what the world sees
Now all I need is just to be
Now I'm no longer holding onto hope
Because I know faith will set me free
I feel the magic of love inside me
And with the angels around to guide me
Oh I'm finally letting go
And I guess I'll never understand what life means
And though it's hard to find out what the truth is
Oh this I surely know
To be alive I must let go

I used to wonder why it is that I can't see
And struggled with the reasons why it could be
Now I know fear was blinding me

Now I'm no longer holding onto hope
'Cause my faith can set me free

I feel the magic of love inside me
And with the angels around to guide me
Oh I'm finally letting go
I guess I'll never understand what life means
And though it's hard to find out what the truth is
Oh this I surely know
To be alive I must let go

And when I'm lonely and everything feels wrong
I remember you know me and what I need to make me strong
So when I'm lonely and everything feels wrong
I know you're near me you give me strength to carry on

I feel the magic of love inside me
And with the angels around to guide me
Oh I'm finally letting go
I guess I'll never understand what life means
And though it's hard to find out what the truth is
Oh this I surely know




To be alive I must let go
I'm letting go...
