Release You Lyrics
Losing the fight, closing my eyes
I’d run out of luck and I’d run out of time
The beat of my heart was fading away
The last thing I saw was your beautiful face
You and I, we can’t deny
That we’re still holding on
To everything we thought was yet to be
So I release you, yes I
I’ve made my peace with you now
It is time to say farewell
Deep inside you know
You’ve got to let me go
Though I love you with all my might
I must go towards the light
Everyday I watch as you grieve
I know that I must but I don’t want to leave
I call out your name, you stop and you stare
There are only the trees but you know that I’m there
In this dream, the in-between
I wish that I could hold you
But I am just a presence in the wind
So I release you, yes I
I’ve made my peace with you now
It is time to say farewell
Deep inside you know
You’ve got to let me go
Though I love you with all my might
I must go towards the light
Through the mist you blow a kiss
And then you walk away
And finally I know that I am free
So I release you, yes I
I’ve made my peace with you now
It is time to say farewell
Deep inside you know
You’ve got to let me go
Though I love you with all my might
I must go towards the light
I release you
I release you
I release you
Oooh oooh oooh
I release you, I release you
Oooh oooh
I release you, I release you
I’d run out of luck and I’d run out of time
The beat of my heart was fading away
The last thing I saw was your beautiful face
You and I, we can’t deny
That we’re still holding on
To everything we thought was yet to be
I’ve made my peace with you now
It is time to say farewell
Deep inside you know
You’ve got to let me go
Though I love you with all my might
I must go towards the light
I know that I must but I don’t want to leave
I call out your name, you stop and you stare
There are only the trees but you know that I’m there
In this dream, the in-between
I wish that I could hold you
But I am just a presence in the wind
I’ve made my peace with you now
It is time to say farewell
Deep inside you know
You’ve got to let me go
Though I love you with all my might
I must go towards the light
And then you walk away
And finally I know that I am free
I’ve made my peace with you now
It is time to say farewell
Deep inside you know
You’ve got to let me go
Though I love you with all my might
I must go towards the light
I release you
I release you
I release you, I release you
I release you, I release you

A catchy song that I can’t get out of my head. Missed it when it was first released. I think it’s about someone as they are about to die, and then they die and can’t pass into the next life, as the person they love is still grieving. Finally, their love accepts that they are gone, and they are both released.
