The holding on is over now You have let me go Just as trees give up their leaves Slowly, surely I knew it would be this way That I wasn't strong enough To release you first I never wanted to give up On that eternal summer That beautiful season Of hope and loving When nothing mattered more Than being in your arms When my heartbeat increased with the miles on my way to you I play in the sun with those memories from time to time When it's quiet and my mind allows it Wearing fleece lounge pants that... (like me) You never wanted.
