When my old man fell to pieces
On my porch in Hollywood
It was the first time that I saw the cracks
I thought I understood
When your hero's just a crying bag of bones
On a cold spring night
And you realize that he never knew nothing
Bout how to live a life

He took a holiday from his restless soul
To leave behind all the pain he'd known
A holiday from his restless soul
To let it all go
Let it all go

When my mama found him cheating
Outside Dennys on Nasa Rd
Well, she packed up everything she could fit
In the back of an old Pinto
And she drove on to the desert
Somewhere out near El Paso
Just to find a new beginning
A place she could call her own

A holiday from her restless soul
To leave behind all the pain she'd known
A holiday from her restless soul
To let it all go
Let it all go...
Let it all go...

Yeah, you could be forgiven
For thinking dreams just don't come true
When you've fallen down so many times
Your knees turn black and blue
But real loves not a dancing lie
It's a bold and fiery truth
That'll crack your heart wide open
And let the light come pouring through

A holiday from your restless soul
To leave behind all the pain you've known
A holiday from your restless soul
To let it all go
Let it all go...
Let it all go...
Let it all go...
Let it all go
