Babe, you gotta let it go
And these hard times wonât last
Babe, you gotta let it go
Thereâs a new day dawninâ
Babe, you gotta let it go
Let the past lie in the past
Babe, you gotta let it go
Weâre just two people lying here in each otherâs arms
Gotta let it go
Thereâs a north wind blowinâ, outside itâs snowinâ
Pure as a childâs soul
So release your burden, I know for certain
Girl, you can come back home
You gotta breathe in, so you can breathe out
Get quiet, so you can get loud
Gotta walk away, not a thing to say
It ainât your cross to bear
No need to criticize, just live your life
I know you got love to spare
And when the partyâs over, itâs time to celebrate
Put your heart together so you can let it break
Babe, you gotta let it go
And these hard times wonât last
Babe, you gotta let it go
Thereâs a new day dawninâ
Babe, you gotta let it go
Let the past lie in the past
Babe, you gotta let it go
Weâre just two people lying here in each otherâs arms
Gotta let it go
The only rules are the ones we choose
Itâs time to simplify
Shed your circumstance for another chance
Only you can decide
Take your clothes off and put your new dress on
Keep on dancinâ when the musicâs gone
Babe, you gotta let it go
And these hard times wonât last
Babe, you gotta let it go
Thereâs a new day dawninâ
Babe, you gotta let it go
Let the past lie in the past
Babe, you gotta let it go
Weâre just two people lying here in each otherâs arms
Gotta let it go
