They Begged, 'Let Me Go... (A Country Song Lyrics) Poem by MoonBee Canady

They Begged, 'Let Me Go... '
or (The Not What You Think It Is Song)

(A Country Song & Lyrics)


♪ ♫

They Said Please
Let Me Go...
and I've Been Down
This Road Before
They Said, They Couldn't
Take The Pain Anymore...

and Was Ready To Go Home

And I Heard
The Plea In Their Voice
and The Pain They Had
Left Me No Choice
'Cause I Didn't Want
To Make Or Force...

That Would Be Wrong...
♪ ♫
____________________

For They Said, They Were
Sick and Tired of Holding On
But They Didn't Want
To Leave Me Alone...

But In Their Heart
They Were Already Gone
That Was Just The Shell
of Themselves That Whispered & Moaned
♪ ♫

♪ ♫

So, I Said...
Yes, Love... I'll Let You Go...
I Know That For Me
You Were Holding On

So Don't Worry About Me
I'll Carry On
I'll Find A Way
and Will To Be Strong...
♪ ♫
O'... Don't Mind
These Tears I Cry
Give Me A Tight Hug
and One Last Kiss Goodbye

And I'll Smile When I See You
On The River's Other Side
Where We'll Both Meet
and Keep Eternal Life! ....

♪ ♫

'Cause She Said
'Please... Let Me Go! '
My Sister, She Was Ready
To Go Home...

But We'll Be Together
Before Too Long
And In Paradise
I'll Show Them This Song ...

♪ ♫
(last chorus)

O' I Had To Let Her Go...
Yes, I Let Her Go...
It Was So Hard, You Know
But I Finally Let Them Go...

^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^

But In My Memory, That River of Life
Still... Flows...

For My Mama Linnie - Who Died of Cancer, in 1957
