Let Go
Lunik Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My eyes were closed when I ran away from your love
And you asked me to return
It took a while to see that you're the one for me, it took too long
'Cause you were gone
Every minute every hour I long for your touch
I know now it's true - I just wanted too much
I try to move on, try to enjoy being free
But a love that big can't be forgotten easily
And in the night I see your face
And now I know I can't replace you
But I try to let go

You're happy now, it seems to be easier with her
First I was hurt, now I'm sorry
Sorry that I couldn't give you the best of me
I wasn't good enough to make you happy
I'm tempted to fight but I wouldn't be fair
No it wouldn't be right now that you've found your place
It's hard to accept 'cause I know deep inside
A love that big shouldn't be left behind
But after all that was - I still love you
And all I want is the best for you
Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be me

Gotta let you go, gotta let you go, gotta let you go, gotta let you go
let go, gotta let you go, gotta let you go, gotta let you go

Sometimes I dream that one day you will tell me
You want to give us another try
And make them real - all the dreams and plans we had
A family with you by my side
But after all it's just a dream

Dadadada... gotta let you go, gotta let you go, gotta let you go
Let go, gotta let you go, gotta let you go, gotta let you go
Let go, oh I gotta let you go, I gotta let you go, I gotta let you go
Gotta let you go, gotta let you go, gotta let you go





My eyes were closed when I ran away from your love
And you asked me to return
