Let Her Go - Dougie MacLean

I see your tired and empty eyes

And the pain of a life that’s broken

Little darling though everybody tries

No the door it will never open

Let her go let her go

Set her free and let her go

Her mother whispers soft and low

Just set her free and please let her go

Just a little flower that’s wilting in the cruel haze of fate

And of time’s survival

Just a little girl who has no more time to wait

For mystery’s cool revival

Let her go let her go

Set her free and let her go

Her mother whispers soft and low

Just set her free and please let her go

And so we shout our anger and we shout our shame

But we’re sure no one will hear us

And so we take the burden and we take the blame

And hope she’s always near us

Let her go let her go

Set her free and let her go

Her mother whispers soft and low

Just set her free and please let her go
