Let Me Go
Give me a day
and let me go away
Let me find my way
Let me go astray
and learn my lessons
Let us part our ways
Let me leave your embrace
and feel the coldness of the world
Let me get lost
And recapture my footings back
Don't hold my hand
Let me topple and fall
Let me rise and gain my strength
Just like a cow lets its calf
I wanna stand on my own
Let me feel the cruelty of people
Let me learn to absorb their jealousy
Let me learn to make them smile
They will love me though it may take a while
Mother,am no longer a child
i can now tame the wild
Just pretend you no more care
And let me fight free and fair
