How nice it is to climb and lie down in a canoe, beautiful
And letting go
And letting go
And letting go

Following the current wherever the river goes
And letting go
And letting go
And letting go

And playing like children, with hands in the water
And letting go
And letting go
And letting go

Feeling the skin or scales of some fish
Letting go
And letting go
And letting go

And seeing the cheerful goodbye of people on the shore
And letting go
And letting go
And letting go

And watching as things that move away shrink
And letting go
And letting go
And letting go

And feeling the caresses of the breeze and drizzle
And letting go
And letting go
And letting go

And closing the eyes and sleeping on that journey
Letting go
And letting go
And letting go

That's why I beg you, I plead, I implore you
To let me go
When the time and the appointed minute come
Let me go

Don't hold me back, let me go
Don't hold me back, let me go
Don't hold me back, let me go
Don't hold me back, let me go

Don't hold me back
Don't hold me back
Don't hold me back

Don't hold me back
Don't hold me back
Don't hold me back

Smile at me, encourage me
Don't reproach me
Don't hold me back, let me go

Well, it's a start
Don't hold me back, let me go
Through the unknown and long river of life
Let me go

Maybe, under another sky
Life will smile at me

Let me go
Perhaps my journey will end at the first turn of the river
Let me go
And then I'll know if I missed out on something good

Let me go
Don't hold me back
Let me go
