metropolitan - Let her go

Dies ist ein Lied über meine Ex-Freundin, mit dem ich über sie hinweg gekommen bin. J****, vielen Dank für alles!!

I tell you the story about a girl and me:
she was so pretty, but I didn't see.
Blond hair, blue eyes, she was perfect ten.
But listen, oh, listen what happened then:

I let her go, no, I don't know why.
I let her go, I was such a stupid guy.
But now it doesn't matter any more,
'cause now I know more than before.

When I came back, nothing has been the same.
I thought it wouldn't be again.
Now I know this is the better way
and GOD will send me an Angel one day.

I let her go...................

I prayed to GOD: "Let me forget this mistake!"
He didn't let me, but he let me understand.

I let her go............
