Lyrics

Please give me one more chance
I'm begging you, just one more chance
If you'll listen..
This is not some movie romance
Or everlasting love at a glance
Won't you listen..
She is a part of me now
She's the very heart of me now, so..
If you really love her, let her go

She's your daughter and I know that you care
But like a lost bird in the cold night air
She is lonely..
Thinking back to the days you were young
When the pain of loving was so very strong
Weren't you lonely?
She is no longer a child
She's a woman with love in her eyes, so..
If you really love her, let her go

Oh she is like a bird
Yearning for the winter wind
If you let her go
She'll come again in springtime
But if you make her stay
And hold her freedom in your hand
In the morning you will wake
And she'll be gone away..

She is no longer a child
She's a woman with my love in her eyes, so..
If you really love her, let her go
If you really love her, let her go
If you really love her, let her go..
