Verse 1
She said you’re impossible,
I worry about you, and the things you get up to.
I said just be cool,
You don’t have a clue, well that made you hit the roof!

Well that made you hit the roof

Don’t know what it is you do,
Fred says I’m a fool, for the things that I tell you.
No one makes me mad like you,
I don’t know why, only petty with you

I’m only petty with you

Chorus
Trying to be all I can be. 
Feel like I’m letting you down you see,
More than I was before,
But I’m not seventeen no more.
Love you the same, now that i’m grown
I need to make it on my own  
Time to let me, let me, let me, let me go.

Verse 2
I said you’re a stubborn girl,
But i’m guilty too, like the women before you.
Why’d you need to know my world?
I’m needing some space, to figure my point of view

To figure my point of view

Pre chorus
Never thought I’d let you down,
But if I do I’m saying sorry now

Chorus
Trying to be all I can be. 
Feel like I’m letting you down you see,
More than I was before,
But I’m not seventeen no more.
Love you the same, now that i’m grown
I need to make it on my own  
Time to let me, let me, let me, let me go.

Bridge
Hard to let me go,
I’m your baby after all.
But wherever I am,
You’d be the one i’d call!

Chorus
Trying to be all I can be. 
Feel like I’m letting you down you see,
More than I was before,
But I’m not seventeen no more.
Love you the same, now that i’m grown
I need to make it on my own  
Time to let me, let me, let me, let me go.
Ohhh,
Time to let me, let me, let me, let me go.
(I know it’s hard to let me go, I’m still your baby after all)
Time to let me, let me, let me, let me go.
