I used to be afraid to fall in love Cause I knew that one day I would be forced to let her go I knew that we would fall head over heels And my heart that girl would steal And in the end one'd have to watch the other go When we grow old And I don't wanna think about it cause it makes me cry When God decides to take you then I think I'll probably die of heartbreak My friggin heart breaks, thinking bout living without you in my life My wife, my high school sweetheart, my best friend baby yeah You know when I'm without you I go crazy If you want it you could have it, life’s too short to tell you maybe And I don’t wanna ever let go no no no Yeah, so I wrote this verse as just one way to let you know girl That I'm always gonna love you Even after God takes you home & I gotta let you go girl Life is one big act of letting go We live, we love, we die But one day there will be no pain And there will be no heartache We’ll live forever I used to be afraid to bring a child into this world Thinking bout the pain & all the hurt that they gone feel Thinking that if somebody hurts my baby boy or baby girl Then that's somebody that I pray I do not kill And yeah it's that real, I'm praying everyday I'm down on my knees, beggin' for wisdom & for grace Cause all I wanna do is raise my kids to know your name So they can go & tell the world the reason why you came As I'm writing this my son is in my wife's womb And it's crazy little maddox bout to come soon And I pray to God I'm gonna be a good dad Cause in this world there really ain't enough good dads And yeah I’ll probably take it hard when I gotta let you go I’m writin’ this verse cause all I want’s for you to know Sometimes your mom and dad might act crazy on the low But I promise you it’s only cause we hate to let you go Know we hate to let you go Life is one big act of letting go We live, we love, we die But one day there will be no pain And there will be no heartache We’ll live forever Yeah, so what profit has a man from all his labor In which he toils underneath the sun Cause we all know as one generation passes away So another generation comes So I’m doin’ all I can just to save souls And I ain’t tryina waste a day man I’m gettin’ old And how it changes everything once you really know That life is just one big act of lettin’ go lettin’ go Life is one big act of letting go We live, we love, we die But one day there will be no pain And there will be no heartache We’ll live forever
