Never Let Go
Robot and the Beanstalk Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

The alarm clock's screaming in my face
You gotta get up, you gotta get up today
You're gonna see her soon
So start up the car, I'm on my way
Down the highway to that plane
I can't wait to get you in my room

So hold me close and never let go
Just know, you'll never be alone
I'm here babe, I'm here
And even though that plane will make you go
Far away from the West coast
I'll still be here

And I know big cities and big dreams are calling out your name
Somehow, I just don't know
How I'm gonna make you stay
And even if it seems that nothing will ever be the same
I can promise you that I will always feel this way

So hold me close and never let go
Just know, you'll never be alone
I'm here babe, I'm here
And even though that plane will make you go
Far away from the West coast
I'll still be here

(Ok we're gonna break it down! One, two, three, four!)

And no matter how far
How many miles keep us apart
You're still in my heart
You're still in my heart

Don't worry honey
I'll be here waiting
Don't worry about me
I'll still be here




I'll wait till the sun goes down over our sleepy town
And watch the waves as they call you back home

Overall Meaning

The song “Never Let Go” by Robot and the Beanstalk is a love song that explores the emotions of a lover who is getting ready to part with his significant other. The song starts with the sound of an alarming clock, a signal to wake up and get ready to travel to the airport to see off his lover. He cannot wait to get her into his room, and as she prepares to board the plane, he tells her to hold him close and never let go. He wants her to know that even if she is alone, he is still there for her. The lover knows that big cities and big dreams are calling her name, but he does not know how to make her stay. Despite not knowing how to stop the journey, he promises that he will always feel the same way about her.


The chorus repeats twice, reassuring the lover that even with the distance, the other person will always be in his(her) heart. The last paragraph of the song shows how the lover will wait for his significant other and watch the waves as they bring her back to him. “Never Let Go’’ is not only a love song, but it also expresses long-distance relationships, sacrifice, and commitment.

Wow, this song is really amazing. But I was wondering if I can request for a better version. Where I can understand the words a little bit better and no one in the back round. If you can , thank you. :) This is really an outstanding song. Keep up the the great work Robot and the Beanstalk.
