The first time I laid eyes on you
There was nothing I could do
To keep your eyes away from all the things that I had seen
I cried all night and couldn’t sleep
There was never love so deep
I knew there’d come a day that I would have to let you go
I can’t shield you
Can’t conceal you
Hard love, set you free
I was just a stupid man
I thought that you would understand
What I didn’t know, you could hold your own without me
I was just a stupid man
For wanting you to hold my hand
What you need to know, love is letting go, life will let you see
I watched you take a fall of two
I picked you up and helped you through
I don’t think that you ever knew who picked me up was you
There were times I had to go
I couldn’t live and be that low
I told myself I never want to be like my old man
I can’t shield you
Can’t conceal you
Hard love, set you free
I was just a stupid man
I thought that you would understand
What I didn’t know, you could hold your own without me
I was just a stupid man
For wanting you to hold my hand
What you need to know, love is letting go, life will let you see
