晚上，特地去Crystal Shawanda的音乐会，目的就是为了听她那首最打动人心的一首歌：You can let go now。
歌里讲述了在人生途中，父亲对女儿从小到大一路上的担心；父亲老了，即将离开人世，女儿劝慰父亲：放心地走吧，女儿已经长大，不再是那五岁的小女孩子，骑着自行车，父亲抚着车子；女儿已经有了爱的人，以后的路有了陪伴，不再孤单。
这首歌如泣如诉，打动了很多人的心；每每听到，总心潮起伏，不能自抑。
我其实也想跟自己的父亲说：放心吧，自己已有了伴，也过得挺好，不要再揪心不肯离去，这样太累了。
我知道这些年来，父亲始终在我身边，并没有走远，用各种方式来呵护我。
You can let go - Crystal Shawanda
Wind blowin' on my face
Sidewalk flyin' beneath my bike
A five year-old's first taste
Of what freedom's really like
Sidewalk flyin' beneath my bike
A five year-old's first taste
Of what freedom's really like
He was runnin' right beside me
His hand holdin' on the seat
I took a deep breath and hollered
As I headed for the street
His hand holdin' on the seat
I took a deep breath and hollered
As I headed for the street
You can let go now, daddy
You can let go
Oh, I think I'm ready
To do this on my own
You can let go
Oh, I think I'm ready
To do this on my own
It's still a little bit scary
But I want you to know
I'll be ok now, daddy
You can let go
But I want you to know
I'll be ok now, daddy
You can let go
I was standin' at the altar
Between the two loves of my life
To one I've been a daughter
To one I soon would be a wife
Between the two loves of my life
To one I've been a daughter
To one I soon would be a wife
When the preacher asked
"Who gives this woman?"
Daddy's eyes filled up with tears
He kept holdin' tightly to my arm
'Till I whispered in his ear
"Who gives this woman?"
Daddy's eyes filled up with tears
He kept holdin' tightly to my arm
'Till I whispered in his ear
You can let go now, daddy
You can let go
Oh, I think I'm ready
To do this on my own
You can let go
Oh, I think I'm ready
To do this on my own
It still feels a little bit scary
But I want you to know
I'll be ok now, daddy
You can let go
But I want you to know
I'll be ok now, daddy
You can let go
It was killin' me to see
The strongest man I ever knew
Wastin' away to nothin'
In that hospital room
The strongest man I ever knew
Wastin' away to nothin'
In that hospital room
"You know he's only hangin' on for you"
That's what the night nurse said
My voice and heart were breakin'
As I crawled up in his bed
And said
That's what the night nurse said
My voice and heart were breakin'
As I crawled up in his bed
And said
You can let go now, daddy
You can let go
Your little girl is ready
To do this on my own
You can let go
Your little girl is ready
To do this on my own
It's gonna be a little bit scary
But I want you to know
I'll be ok now, daddy
You can let go
You can let go
But I want you to know
I'll be ok now, daddy
You can let go
You can let go
