about
Most fathers are loving, caring and kind.
This track celebrates that aspect of both parental and cosmic Love.
:)
Written in the 70s...
when my kids were young and I was very protective.

lyrics
Your Father held you in his arms
He knew when you were gonna fall
You thought you had a better way
So when you squirmed he put you on the floor
You crawled toward the red hot fire
He told you it was dangerous
He tried to hold you By the arm
You kicked and screamed and bit his hand
INSTRUMENTAL
He wont' let go, not he won't let go
You thought you got away from him
doing things He didn’t know
To your surprise he rescued you
then held you safely by his hand
Now that’s the same with You and me
We worry that we're not OK
But when you think about it that’s absurd
His Love surrounds you every day
He Won't Let Go
No He won't let go
Oh no, that kinda love never gonna let you go
Won't let go
no it won't let go
Your father's never gonna let you go
that kinda love never gonna let you go
He knew when you were gonna fall
You thought you had a better way
So when you squirmed he put you on the floor
You crawled toward the red hot fire
He told you it was dangerous
He tried to hold you By the arm
You kicked and screamed and bit his hand
INSTRUMENTAL
He wont' let go, not he won't let go
You thought you got away from him
doing things He didn’t know
To your surprise he rescued you
then held you safely by his hand
Now that’s the same with You and me
We worry that we're not OK
But when you think about it that’s absurd
His Love surrounds you every day
He Won't Let Go
No He won't let go
Oh no, that kinda love never gonna let you go
Won't let go
no it won't let go
Your father's never gonna let you go
that kinda love never gonna let you go
