Please Don't Go
Against Grace Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

everybody's out there searching for someone
that takes them back to a place when they barely knew themselves
everybody's out there looking for something
that lights them up like they were young and had no cares
lets run away

this is the moment I've been waiting for
please don't go
we can dance until the sunrise
please don't go
please don't go

I am everybody in that I miss you
and you're not even mine to miss but I can't control myself
I don't know know but I've been told
that you're hard to love but I still wanna try
so let's take a chance and do this dance
this time you're mine no ties let's run away

this is the moment I've been waiting for
please don't go
we can dance until the sunrise




please don't go
please don't go

Overall Meaning

Against Grace's song "Please Don't Go" is a love song that speaks to the universal human experience of searching for something or someone that takes us back to a time when we were carefree and innocent. The lyrics reflect the desire for a romantic connection with someone who lights our souls on fire and renews our sense of joy and wonder.


The opening lines, "everybody's out there searching for someone / that takes them back to a place when they barely knew themselves," evoke a sense of yearning for a romantic partner who can help us reconnect with our inner selves and rediscover a sense of innocence and wonder. The chorus, "please don't go / we can dance until the sunrise / please don't go / please don't go," is a plea to the object of the singer's affection to stay and share this sense of joy and innocence with them.


In the second verse, the singer reveals that they are hopelessly drawn to someone who is "hard to love" but still worth the effort. The lyrics express the desire to experience something new and beautiful with this person and take a chance on a relationship that is unencumbered by ties or restrictions. The song as a whole is about the transformative power of love and the desire to find someone who can transport us to a place of pure joy and freedom.
