Midge Ure - Let It Go? Lyrics
Once I saw a promised landWrapped in many shades of greenBut I sat and watched the world go byConfused by all the things I've seenShould I stand up say what's on my mindPoint my finger at the wrong I findLet it linger till another time or let it goI've seen forests turn to fields of sandTo satisfy a rich man's greedNow the tears that fall upon this landWon't help to grow a nation's needsShould I shout out from the highest towerShould I take it to the highest powerShow the plague that turns a whole world sour, or let it goI seeked comforg, in a sea of foolsAnd wrapped their lies around for protectionsBut if lies were any answer at allWere just adding to this world infectionCan I turn and smile and kiss it awayLeave it lying for another dayShould I fall down on my knees and pray, or let it goThere's a passon that destroys all the caringAnd walks across the flowers of affectionBreaks them down into the soil we are sharingAnd leaves us with this life rejectionAm I strong enough to stand my groundLift my head and show the strength I've foundTry to keep from hell or heaven boundOr let it go, Don't let it go
