Letting Go
Gatti-Vision Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It's impossible, you're too young, she barely let you in
How can you say you love her? It's just infatuation...

Well the way it feels down in my heart, the shaking in my knees
I'll take on all the world's troubles to put all of your fears at ease...

But you're in distress, now my life's a mess
I reach, but you don't take my hand
As I beg you to stay, you just push me away
And say I can't understand

I want to help you, I want to love you
To stand by your side, to be your guide
But you don't want that, I can see that
Now our relationship is just another hardship, you decide...

You need your time, take all that time
How do I love you, how do you know, because I'm letting you go...

There you are in my dreams, I can see you
Searching for the one that can free you
And the search won't end 'til you step inside the light
When I know in my heart that it's just me




If you know in your heart you can trust me
Yet we go our separate ways into the night...

Overall Meaning

The opening lines of the song 'Letting Go' by Gatti-Vision present a dilemma of love which is the confusion between infatuation and true love. The singer claims that it's impossible to love because the other person is too young and barely understands the gravity of love. However, despite this disapproval, the singer still follows their heart as they claim to feel the love deep inside their heart causing their knees to shake. The singer even goes further to offer to take on all the world's troubles to make their lover's fears disappear.


However, the situation gets more complicated when the lover is in distress, and the singer's life becomes even more of a mess. The singer wants to help their lover and be their guide but faces rejection as the lover pushes them away while saying that they cannot understand. Even though the singer genuinely wants to help and love their lover, the relationship becomes just another hardship.


Towards the end of the song, the singer realizes that they need to let go of the lover and let them take their time. The singer sees the lover in their dreams, searching for the one who can free them, but they both go separate ways into the night. The song's message hits the reality that sometimes love is not enough, and one has to let go when it's not meant to be.
