It's Out Of My Hands

Song lyrics that just struck me as a little bit fitting for where I am in life right now - perhaps more from K's point of view than mine. Yep, my secret is out, I dig out my beer-drinkin' country music when it gets too late at night. :)

I'll just turn away, there's no need to watch her leaving
I don't want to let her see me cry
And the part of me that's breaking
Is the part that has been taking her for granted
And that's why she said goodbye

It was me that let her down and left her lonely
But her leaving me was never in my plan
It started with my lying
And it ended with me crying
And she's taken all the lonely she can stand

It's out of my hands now
It's over and done
She's made her choice now
And I'm not the one
She'll find her future with some other man
It was all up to me but I just couldn't see
Now it's out of my hands.

She tried every way she knew to make me happy
She was more than just a lover and a friend
I was just too blind to see
And now she set me free
So it's best to walk away and let it end

It's out of my hands now
It's over and done
She's made her choice now
And I'm not the one
She'll find her future with some other man
It was all up to me but I just couldn't see
Now it's out of my hands.

-Randy Travis, It's Out Of My Hands
