Let Go
Clio Leslie Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Never knew that I could cry
I believed in happy endings
Till the day you said "Goodbye"
By now I try, you say "no"
I could give, but I know
I have let go
Got so tired of pretending
Going nowhere by your side
How can I know what it feels like
I don`t live inside your mind
But now I try, you say "no"
I could give, but I know
I have let go
Let go
I want it sparkle, I want it so
Letting you lead out worst one more place to go
I want it easy...see what you blow
But in no happy ending, I be released and so
But now I try, you say "no"
I could give, but I know
I have let go
Let go
Let go
Let go
Let go
Let go
Let go
