Lyrics
There's a young man sits by the river
Got his head held down in his hands
There's a lost love in every teardrop
And reasons that he just don't understand
There's a dirt road runs by the river
Comes an old man stepping high
With a soft voice & kind intentions
He said son you know you're too young to cry
Some things were meant to just roll by
[Chorus]
You've got to learn to let it go, when love lets you down
Learn to let it go, so you don't miss the one waiting to be found
With a love that's going to bring you round
Only love is going to bring you around
He said now I know it's hard to imagine
That one day you wont feel so bad.
I know you're going to take comfort
From this experience that I've had.
