The Doobie Brothers - Learn to Let Go Lyrics

Ooh

When you look back on a love
And how it came to an end
You think you'll never wanna need anything
That much again now, babe
'Cause when it feels so good it's hard to see
The writing on the wall
Flying high on love
Only makes for a longer fall

But you gotta keep on trying
'Til the memory sets you free

When you lose at love
This world may keep on turning
But it's just gonna keep on hurting
'Til you learn to let go, babe

This is where you'll find it (ooh)
What you're looking for (let go, babe)
You can't hide it
Use your head 'til your heart can follow
This is where you'll find it (ah)
What you're looking for
You can't hide it (let go)
So just let it go

Forgive and forget
No need to keep on living
A life of regret
'Cause if you keep holding on
Looking for someone to blame
That's just wasting your time
Waiting for something to change

But you gotta keep on trying
'Til the memory sets you free

When you lose at love
This world may keep on turning
But it's just gonna keep on hurting
'Til you learn to let go, babe

This is where you'll find it (ooh)
What you're looking for (let go, babe)
You can't hide it
Use your head 'til your heart can follow
This is where you'll find it (ah)
What you're looking for
You can't hide it (let go)
So just let it go

When you lose at love
This world may keep on turning
But it's just gonna keep on hurting
'Til you learn to let go, babe

This is where you'll find it (ooh)
What you're looking for (let go, babe)
You can't hide it
Use your head and your heart will follow
This is where you'll find it (ooh, ooh)
What you're looking for (let go, babe)
You can't hide it
Hey, baby you know

This is where you'll find it (and I know what you're going through)
What you're looking for ('cause I've been there too)
You can't hide it
Hey, I'd be there if I could
This is where you'll find it (but hanging on)
What you're looking for (just ain't no good)
You can't hide it (ooh)
So just let it go

Ooh, ooh, baby
You know
It's okay to be sad
Only time can make it not feel so bad
