The time has come to let you go My tears will run and they'll keep me afloat I set you adrift like a burning boat The time has come to let you go The time has come to turn you loose It took my heart this long to face the truth If I lost you I can lose these blues The time has come to turn you loose We had our moment in the sun But that time has come and now that time is gone The time has come to set you free Tonight's the night I'll untie all these dreams I'll send them away so I can find some peace The time has come to set you free I'm gonna let you go
