let you go
ATB feat. The Wild Strawberries Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

"I´ve been to all the familiar places
I´ve been running like a sentence
Never begun
I´ve been looking for a way to let you know
I got nothing left to fill out spaces
I got nothing but a septum coming undone
I´ve been doing circles and it shows
Every cloud in the sky
Every place that I hide
Tell me that I,
I was wrong to let you go
Every search that I heel
Every flower that I feel
Tell me that I,
I was wrong to let you go

Let you go, Let you go, Let you go x4"
Its the little things that make you crazy
Like the thought of someone else touching your skin
I can see you everywhere i go
It could be the sight of your face
It could be the aroma of your breath
Still as the river as it flows

Every cloud in the sky
Every place that I hide
Tell me that I,
I was wrong to let you go
Every search that I heel
Every flower that I feel
Tell me that I,
I was wrong to let you go





Let you go let you go let you go x4

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to ATB feat. Roberta Carter Harrison's song Let U Go describe the singer's journey after letting go of a relationship. The first verse talks about how the singer has been to all the usual places they used to go with their partner but they are not the same anymore. They have been running aimlessly but they have nothing to fill up the void in their heart. They have been doing circles and it shows that they are lost without their partner. The chorus talks about the singer's regret at letting their partner go. They see reminders of their partner everywhere they go, and every cloud in the sky, every place they hide, every search they make, and every flower they feel tells them they were wrong to let their partner go.


The second verse explains the little things that make the singer crazy, things like the thought of someone else touching their partner's skin. The singer can see their partner everywhere they go, in the sight of a face or the aroma of their breath. They are still as the river flows, which means that they are static like the river, unable to move on. The chorus repeats the same themes, highlighting the singer's regret in letting go of their partner.


Overall, the song is a poignant representation of the aftermath of a relationship, capturing the emptiness and regret that one feels after letting go of someone they loved.

I've been to all the familiar places
I have visited all the usual spots


I've been running like a sentence, never begun
I have been moving constantly, but never really started anything


I've been looking for a way to let you know
I have been trying to find a method of communicating to you


I got nothing left to fill out spaces
There's nothing I have to occupy the empty areas


I got nothing but a septum coming undone
All I have is a nose ring that's about to fall off


I've been doing circles and it shows
I've been going around in circles, and it's evident


Every cloud in the sky, every place that I hide, tell me that I, I was wrong to let you go
All of the clouds and hiding locations suggest that I made a mistake in letting you go


Every search that I heel, every flower that I feel, tell me that I, I was wrong to let you go
Each hunt I embark and flower I touch indicates that I erred in separating from you


Let you go, Let you go, Let you go x4
I allowed you to go, repeat thrice


It's the little things that make you crazy
It's the small details that irritate someone


Like the thought of someone else touching your skin
For example, the idea of another person touching you


I can see you everywhere I go
I encounter you in every place I visit


It could be the sight of your face, it could be the aroma of your breath
I might see your face or detect your scent


Still as the river as it flows
I remain calm amidst a flowing river

Absolutelly right!

@Lokalaugenschein_

Besides the latest Dance music productions ATB is an absoulte Hit-Guarantee. It's a pity that so many of his (old) songs aren't really noticed and - at least a few more of them - a bit higher appreciated yet.
