The Rest Of Your Life Lyrics - Judy Collins

Every mother has to let he child go 

Even though it may tear her apart 

I can hear the lullabies I sang you 

Now you stand taller than my heart 

You know you can bread my heart so easily 

You can make my day with just a smile 

One word from you can melt the winter snow 

Make me forget the longest mile 

Whatever you're doin' for the rest of your life 

I'm here to tell you, you can count on me 

No use my worryin', I know you can fly 

I've gotta let you go, gotta set you free 

I've gotta set you free

The road we walked was never easy 

I know I stumbled on the way 

I thought I knew what I was doing 

When I was wrong you had to pay 

I hope by now you can forgive me 

And take the good I had to give 

I was too young to be your teacher 

We learned together how to live 

Whatever you're doin' for the rest of your life 

I'm here to tell you, you can count on me 

No use my worryin', I know you can fly 

I've gotta let you go, gotta set you free 

I only hope you will be happy 

I want the very best for you 

The only prize that's worth the battle 

Is finding love you know is true
