Don't Go
PS I Love You Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
don't leave. don't leave. if you leave without me your heart will never be free
sleeping in the van with a knife in my hand, this is the worst week of my life
in one day i lost all i ever loved, this is the worst week of my life
don't go. don't go. the night when you said don't go i almost didn't go
i can't. i can't believe. i just can't believe that they took you right from the street
sleeping in the van with a knife in my hand, this is the worst week of my life
in one day i lost all i ever loved, this is the worst week of my life
it's a year later and everything's changed. a year later and is it all the same
you say i'm free but i'm not free, i'm free but i'm not free
The lyrics to "Don't Go" by PS I Love You depict a deeply emotional and tumultuous experience for the singer. The repeated plea of "don't go, don't leave" expresses a desperate desire for someone to stay and not abandon them. The lines "the night when you said don't go I almost didn't go" reveal the singer's vulnerability and how close they came to not leaving a particular situation or relationship.
The lyrics also touch upon a sense of loss and despair. The mention of sleeping in a van with a knife in hand suggests a feeling of danger and vulnerability, highlighting the extreme distress the singer is experiencing. The line "in one day I lost all I ever loved, this is the worst week of my life" further emphasizes the magnitude and suddenness of the loss they have endured.
As the song progresses, it seems that some time has passed. The lyrics mention that "it's a year later and everything's changed," indicating a significant shift in the singer's life. However, there is a contradiction in their state of being. Despite being told they are free, the line "I'm free but I'm not free" suggests that they still feel trapped or burdened in some way, perhaps unable to fully recover from the initial trauma.
Overall, "Don't Go" captures the overwhelming emotions and aftermath of a devastating event or relationship, exploring themes of longing, loss, and the struggle to find true freedom.

When he says, “cause the thing is, I just can’t say goodbye yet...” I literally sob ❤️ What an honest sentiment about someone you lose. Sigh. Such a good movie.

I don’t know why this film received such terrible reviews, for me it was the best chick flick/romcom I have ever seen and normally I’m not a fan of chick flicks (I even hate the phrase chick flicks) but this one was brilliant and funny.

People hate to think and talk about death . That's why. It scares them. Love the movie though.

Totally agree with you. And for my money it contains Gerard Butler's best performance. He is absolutely marvelous in the deleted scenes too.
