Let go, it's a hard, hard lesson to learn   Let go, it's a very hard lesson you learn      Like a blind man run down a highway   Is a very good friend of mine   And I'm runnin', I'm yellin', I'm tryin' to catch him   But I keep on fallin' behind      Let go, it's a hard, hard lesson to learn      Like a clown stuck out on a high wire   Is a very good friend of mine   Losin' his sense of balance   Reachin' a hand for mine      Let go, it's a hard, hard lesson to learn      Like the empty glass on the table   Is a very good friend of mine   Askin' me if I need one more   Starin' straight into my mind      Let go, let go, let go, let go
