Wind blowing on my face   Sidewalk flying beneath my bike   A five year olds first taste   Of what freedom's really like   He was running right beside me   His hand holding on the seat   I took a deep breath and hollered   As I headed for the street      "You can let go now daddy   You can let go   Oh I think I'm ready to do this on my own   It's still a little bit scary   But I want you to know   I'll be okay now daddy   You can let go"      I was standing at the altar   Between the two loves of my life   To one I've been a daughter   To one I soon would be a wife   When the preacher asked   "Who gives this woman?"   Daddy's eyes filled up with tears   He kept holding tightly to my arm   'Til I whispered in his ear:      "You can let go now daddy   You can let go   Oh I think I'm ready to do this on my own   It's still feels a little bit scary   But I want you to know   I'll be okay now daddy   You can let go"      It was killing me    To see the strongest man I ever knew   Wasting away to nothing in that hospital room   "You know he's only hanging on for you"   That's what the night nurse said   My voice and heart were breaking   As I crawled up in his bed and said:       You can let go now daddy   You can let go   Your little girl is ready to do this on my own   Its gonna be a little bit scary   But I want you to know   I'll be okay now daddy   You can let go   You can let go
