Giving You Away Songtext
von Lukas Nelson & Promise of the Real

Woke up this mornin′ and I knew it was time
So many years we've spent between us
You′ve grown so much and it feels like a crime
That I don't get to keep you here until the end of time

So I left my fear on the wayside
And I'm happy for the love you chose to live by

Well, you′ve grown so much, and now it′s time to fly
And I know I've got to realize you′re no longer mine
I'm givin′ you away
But I'm never gonna let you go


You found a love that will carry you
It brings me tears of joy to see a heart so true
And if he treats you right, and I know he will
There ain′t nothin' in this whole wide world that you can't do

So I left my fear on the wayside
And I′m happy for the love you chose to live by

Well, you′ve grown so much, and now it's time to fly
And I know I′ve got to realize you're no longer mine
And I just wanna tell you, it′ll do you right to know
I'm givin′ you away but I'm never gonna let you go

And I just wanna tell you, it will do you right to know
I'm giving you away, but I′m never gonna let you go
