i love you enough to let you go lyrics

(Keith Whitley/Bill Caswell/Gary Nicholson)

It breaks my heart to see
That you're unhappy here with me
The hurt you've tried to hide can't help but show
I could cling to the past
But I'm afraid it wouldn't last
And I love you enough to let you go

Don't think that I'm all through
Or that I'm givin' up on you
Our love's the most important thing I know
But if I set you free
It just might bring you back to me
And I love you enough to let you go

I'll stand and hold the door
And watch you walk away
And welcome you back with open arms
If you come back someday
But for now it would be wrong
To keep tryin' to hold on
And I love you enough to let you go

I'll stand and hold the door
And watch you walk away
And welcome you back with open arms
If you come back someday
But for now it would be wrong
To keep tryin' to hold on
And I love you enough to let you go
