Before You Go
Kygo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Emotions like summer
We'll wake to a blue sky
And I turned to hold you
As we watched the sunrise
'Cause this is amazing
Running wild with you
My thoughts are hazy
This may be way too soon

But I will never let you go
Never let you go, I know
I will never let you go
Never let you go, no, no

Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh

I'm so lost in these summer nights
So lost in your crystal eyes
And even when this night is day
I won't regret the words I'm saying

Yeah I will never let you go
Never let you go, I know
I will never let you go
Never let you go, no, no

Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh

Through the longest of time I will never let you go
(Never let you go, I'll never let you go)
If we fall or stumble down I will always keep a hold
(Never let you go, never let you go)
Through the longest of time I will never let you go
(Never let you go, never let you go)
If we fall or stumble down I will always keep a hold, oh-no

Yeah I will never let you go
Never let you go, I know
I will never let you go
Never let you go, no, no

Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh




Ooh, ooh
Ooh, ooh

I fell by the wayside, like everyone else
I hate you, I hate you, I hate you
But I was just kidding myself
Our every moment, I start to replace
'Cause now that they're gone
All I hear are the words that I needed to say
When you hurt under the surface
Like troubled water running cold
Well, time can heal, but this won't
So, before you go
Was there something I could've said
To make your heart beat better?
If only I'd have known you had a storm to weather
So, before you go
Was there something I could've said
To make it all stop hurting?
It kills me how your mind can make you feel so worthless
So, before you go
Was never the right time, whenever you called
Went little, by little, by little until there was nothing at all
Our every moment, I start to replay
But all I can think about is seeing that look on your face
When you hurt under the surface
Like troubled water running cold
Well, time can heal, but this won't
So, before you go
Was there something I could've said
To make your heart beat better?
If only I'd have known you had a storm to weather
So, before you go
Was there something I could've said
To make it all stop hurting?
It kills me how your mind can make you feel so worthless
So, before you go
Would we be better off by now
If I'd let my walls come down?
Maybe, I guess we'll never know
You know, you know
Before you go
Was there something I could've said
To make your heart beat better?
If only I'd have known you had a storm to weather
So, before you go
Was there something I could've said
To make it all stop hurting?
It kills me how your mind can make you feel so worthless
So, before you go

Kygo should hear this, this is a masterpiece!

Jędrzej Siata

@InHouseStudio Yeah, totally unlike.

InHouseStudio

@Jędrzej SiataHero8 is trolling. Kygo is actually a fan of Lewis Capaldi. He may have heard this or heard about it since his team is tuned into the fanbase. It would be unlike Kygo to say this sucks IMO ;)

Jędrzej Siata

@Hero8 How dare he say that?! He shouldn't say that! I thought he'd like it. Maybe you sent it to the wrong Kygo.
