I have fought all my life
For the ring for the prize
How i searched high and low
But the only thing i've come to know
Is the weight of gold
Is a heavy load
And a burden on my soul
I'm letting go
I'm letting go
Of all those things i called my own
Letting go letting go
Maybe then i'd have something to hold
Maybe then i'd have something to hold
Once i held the world in my hand
Like a castle made of sand
Time rolled on and then i learned
Every tide takes a turn
It ebbs and flows
The wild wind blows
It's all beyond control
