Please Don't Go
Glenna Gasparian Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I see the flashing lights
And my heart beat pounds
Our knotted hands break
As I’m head first through the door
Forgetting about the times before
Dancing, laughing, then I spy
A set up, fed up face pass by
(chorus)
Baby please don’t go
You’re takin my heart with you
It’s walkin right through the door
If only you could know
I’d give this all away
For us to be alone
(verse 2)
Crash the door down, spit out on the street
I see you with a girl
Wanna push delete
Babe it hit me like a ton of bricks
Tell me it’s somethin I can fix
(pre-chorus 2)
Cryin’, tryin’ like the past
But now it’s me who wants you back
(repeat chorus)
(bridge)
You say it’s a routine, draining every inch of me
And right now it’s got to end
Let’s get back in the car, I miss the warmth around your arms
And I’ll never leave you again
I tell you now, it’s how it’s gonna be
I’ll never leave the crescent smille, your moonlit eyes
The touch when
"Please Don't Go" by Glenna Gasparian is a song that delves into the emotions of a person who is desperately pleading for their partner not to leave. The lyrics paint a picture of a Friday night where the singer's friends are indoors, but their attention is captivated by the flashing lights outside, indicating a party or a social gathering. The excitement in their heart intensifies as they decide to leave their friends and join the festivities.
As they enter the party, their hands interlocked with their partner's, something catches their eye. They see someone who seems upset or frustrated pass by, which makes them feel uneasy. In the chorus, the singer implores their partner not to leave, expressing that their heart will go with them if they walk out the door. They express a willingness to give up everything just to be with their partner, emphasizing the depth of their love and longing.
The second verse takes a turn as the singer bursts out of the door and finds their partner with someone else. This revelation hits them hard, and they desperately hope that it is something they can fix. In the second pre-chorus, they find themselves in a role reversal, crying and trying to win their partner back. The chorus is repeated once again, highlighting the plea for their partner to stay.
The bridge of the song reflects the exhaustion and frustration that the singer's partner feels due to the routine or issues in the relationship. However, the singer suggests getting back in the car and returning to the warmth and intimacy they once had. They promise to never leave their partner again, asserting that they are meant to be together.
Finally, the song concludes with the affirmation that the singer will always be there for their partner, cherished like a crescent smile, moonlit eyes, and the comforting touch they share.
