let you go
Noush Skaugen Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Where I've been till now
Opened up the door
As I rolled out from the times before
I've been humanized
But I don't wanna play this game another day with you.

It's not me, I'm not your wife,
I'm not the love of your life

Chorus
As I put away the book and the pages fold
I realise the whole story wasn't told
I know you blame it all on me
I'm thinking of a conversation that we had
The memories running round in my head
Now I know, I Let You Go
You go, I know, I Let You Go

In a roll of a die, everything changed for me
I remember the day you walked, you said

It's not me, I'm not your wife,
I'm not the love of your life


You were my friend, here we are again,
You can't say we didn't try, so dry your eyes.

In a roll of a die, everything changed for me




I remember the day you walked away, I was free
Cause I learnt how to give, I learnt how to love, I learnt how to love myself, love myself inside
