Comes an old man, stepping high
He said, "Now I know, it’s hard to imagine
There’s a lost love in every teardrop
With a love that’s going to bring you around
There’s a dirt road, runs by the river
You’ve got to learn to let it go when love lets you down
Only love is going to bring you around
With a soft voice and kind intentions
Learn to let it go, so you don’t miss the one waiting to be found
From this experience that I’ve had"
You’ve got to learn to let it go when love lets you down
Some things were meant to just roll by"
With a love that’s going to bring you around
Only love is going to bring you around
You’ve got to learn to let it go when love lets you down
With a love that’s going to bring you around
Learn to let it go, so you don’t miss the one waiting to be found
And reasons that he just don’t understand
That one day, you won't feel so bad
He said, "Son, you know you’re too young to cry
I know you’re going to take comfort
Learn to let it go, so you don’t miss the one waiting to be found
