Go! Go! Go!
Ray Harris Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Sitting alone by candlelight
waiting for noon to turn to night
as i look to the ocean tide
searching for a place to hide

here me calling
out your name
do you feel the same

let me go let me be what are we living for if we cant be free

On the outside looking in
can you see whats going on withing
if you shine a light on me
kaleidoscope you will see

here me calling
out your name
do you feel the same





let me go let me be what are we living for if we cant be free

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Ray Harris's song "Go! Go! Go!" depict a sense of longing and yearning for freedom and escape. The opening lines portray a person sitting alone in solitude, surrounded by candlelight, eagerly waiting for the night to come, symbolizing the desire to break free from the constraints of their current situation. The mention of looking towards the ocean tide suggests a search for a hiding place, a refuge where they can escape from their troubles.


The chorus echoes this sentiment, with the singer calling out the listener's name and questioning if they feel the same longing for liberation. The repeated plea of "let me go, let me be" expresses a deep desire to break free from whatever is holding them back. The lyrics suggest that the true purpose of life is to be free, and anything that inhibits that freedom hinders one's ability to live fully.


The second verse delves into the perspective of an outsider looking in, someone who can see the turmoil and struggle happening within the singer. By shining a light on the person, they compare themselves to a kaleidoscope, suggesting that their inner world is intricate and complex. This may imply that they feel misunderstood or unseen by others, and long for a companion who can truly comprehend their struggles.
