NE‐YO Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Let's go!
Make no excuses now, I'm talking here and now, I'm talking here and now
Let's go!
Your time is running out, I'm talking here and now, I'm talking here and now

It's not about what you've done
It's about what you doing
It's all about where you going
No matter where you've been, let's go!

Let's go!
Let's go!
Let's go! (Hey, its now or never oh oh)
Let's go! (Tomorrow's good, tonight is better oh oh)
Let's go!

There ain't no better time, I'm talking here and now, I'm talking here and now
Let's go!
Right now is where you shine, I'm talking here and now, I'm talking here and now

It's not about what you've done
It's about what you doing
It's all about where you going
No matter where you've been, let's go!

Let's go!
Let's go!
Let's go! (Hey, its now or never oh oh)
Let's go! (Tomorrow's good, tonight is better oh oh)

Let's make it happen
Ooh, let's make it happen tonight
Let's make it happen
Ooh, let's make it happen tonight
Let's make it happen
Ooh, let's make it happen tonight
Let's make it happen
Ooh, let's make it happen tonight, tonight, let's go!

Let's go!




Ooh let's go! (Hey, its now or never oh oh)
Let's go! (Tomorrow's good, tonight is better oh oh) Let's go!

Overall Meaning

In NE-YO's Let Go, the lyrics encourage listeners to take action and make things happen in the present moment. The repetition of "Let's go" is a call to action, urging the listener to stop making excuses and start taking steps towards their goals. The lyrics remind us that it's not just about what we've done in the past, but about what we're doing right now and where we're headed in the future.


The verses emphasize the importance of seizing the moment, with lines like "Your time is running out" and "There ain't no better time." The lyrics suggest that we need to focus on the present and not get bogged down by the past. This sentiment is reinforced in the chorus, with the repeated refrain of "It's not about what you've done, it's about what you doing, It's all about where you going, No matter where you've been, let's go!"


The song is ultimately about taking control of your life and not letting fear or hesitation hold you back.

"Let Go"

I know it's past tense
It's been a minute since
We were a couple
And, walking and holding hands
Kisses and I love yous
Doing what lovers do
Baby
But baby that was then

'cause now we don't
Talk no more
You gotta a new man
And, it shouldn't bother me
But girl its driving me, crazy
And everybody says
Boy why don't you just leave it alone
But I don't think I can

[Chorus (x2)]
I sit up all night
Thinkin' about you
And know it ain't right, baby
But I don't
I don't think, don't think that I
That I can let go (Don't think I can let you know)

I'm holdin' on to hope
I know its a foolish thought
Think that someday she might come back
Wish on it all the time
Knowin' it never may happen
But see I'm not a fool

'cause no we don't
Talk no more
You gotta new man
But, I'm gonna keep the faith
I've got the patience
That some lack...
But everybody says
Boy why don't you just leave it alone
But I don't think I can

[Chorus]
I sit up all night
Thinkin' about you
And know it ain't right, baby
But I don't
I don't think, don't think that I
That I can let go (Don't think I can let you know)

[Interlude]
I don't think I can let you go
I can't let you go
No....
I don't think that I can let you go
Let go...
And everybody says...
And I don't think I can...

[Chorus (With Ad-Libs)]
I sit up all night
Thinkin' about you
And know it ain't right, baby
But I don't
I don't think, don't think that I
That I can let go (Don't think I can let you know)

Martijn

Wish i found someone (who feels what Ne-Yo is singing in this song)
Cause i wish i could sing this to my baby (maybe love ain't there for me)

I sit up all night
Thinkin' bout ya
And know it ain't right, baby
But I don't
I don't think, don't think that I
That I can let go (Don't think I can let you know
