While The World Let Go
A Rocket to the Moon Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I said don't go, I need you here
Just hold me close until the coast is clear
And I will fall, I'll fall so hard
In hopes I land in your arms

We can watch the world go by
Falling like stars in the sky
I'm never gonna let you go
Your love's gonna save my soul
And after all we've been through fire and smoke
And through it all we've kept a hold of hope
While the world let go

If the moon doesn't come
And we're left without the sun
I will still hold you tight
While we wait out the night

We can watch the world go by
Falling like stars in the sky

I'm never gonna let you go
Your love's gonna save my soul
And after all we've been through fire and smoke
And through it all we've kept a hold of hope
While the world let go
While the world let go

I swore I'd never let you end up on your own
I'll always be around to let you know

I'm never gonna let you go
Your love's gonna save my soul
After all we've been through fire and smoke
And through it all we've kept a hold of hope
While the world let go
While the world let go
While the world let go





I swore I'd never let you go.

And I will fall, I'll fall so hard
In hopes I land in your arms

We can watch the world go by
Falling like stars in the sky

i love this song <3 

mr tadakichi

I dunno this gives my heart unbearable pain, while i listen tears flow.

pol

This song gives so much hope in the beginning, but with the last lyrics, it kinda gives an ache. The way he said "I swore I'd never let you go," feels like regret and heartbreak because the guy wasn't able to keep her

sam miller

Just amazing c:

I was once in love with a girl 9 years older than me... This was her favorite song

Kit TvTy

How old are you right now? Still love her?

Tsar_Zo

@Kit TvTy
I was 14 at the time and I'm 19 now.
I seriously don't know anymore, man. I was too childish and she was too mature. That lead to problems and then eventually a breakup.
Her maturity is what attracted me and my carefree young attitude attracted her but both of us didn't know how different we actually were. I didn't know how periods even worked at the time lmao
She was my first so she does have a place in my heart but again, I don't know if it's even love or not.
We haven't talked for last 3 years and maybe luck will bring us together again. Maybe I will have grown up enough in her eyes and maybe she'll accept me again lol

So, what about you, in love with an older woman too?

Hisham M. Abdulrazaq

This one is my favourite

2023 and still listening
