ARTIST BIO
All I want to do is music so that's what I'm going to do.
I'm 19 years old. When i first played guitar at around 14, I wanted to be Eddie Van Halen. Then I heard Neil Young and wanted to be a folk singer. A couple of years later, I discovered that I loved writing songs.
Songs that are about the people and places that I've encountered throughout my life. Experiences and wishful dreams alike. I'm attending Berklee College of Music right now to see what I've missed out...formally. But what I really want to do is share my music with all of you.
Born in Vancouver WA. on Sept. 11, 1991
Influences:
John Mayer, The Beatles, SRV, Van Halen, anything that tickles my ears.
Let You Go
Salvatore Manalo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I just want the feeling of your heart beat on my chest
Why did everything fall apart?
If we're speaking honestly, it feels like we're a mess
Can't we just ignore it
Is this all that
We get to spend with you?
That we're holding
Our baby dressed in blue
I don't want to let you go
This ain't the way it's supposed to go
Cause every day we're breaking when you're not home
Maybe there's a reason, can you let us know?
People say your eyes are like mine
Even if the rest of you are echoes of your mom
Can't we just pretend you'll be fine?
We placed your crib across the room to catch the morning sun
Can't we just ignore it
Is this all that
We get to spend with you?
Just another moment
That we're holding
Our baby dressed in blue
I don't want to let you go
This ain't the way it's supposed to go
Cause every day we're breaking when you're not home
Maybe there's a reason, can you let us know?
I don't want to let you go
This ain't the way it's supposed to go
Cause every day we're breaking when you're not home
Maybe there's a reason, can you let us know?

I never want you out of these arms
I can't bear the thought of being away from you
I just want the feeling of your heart beat on my chest
I want to feel your love and presence close to me
Why did everything fall apart?
I'm wondering what went wrong and caused our relationship to crumble
If we're speaking honestly, it feels like we're a mess
To be frank, our situation seems chaotic and disorganized
Can't we just ignore it
Can't we pretend that our problems don't exist?
Is this all that we get to spend with you?
Is this the limited time we have together?
Just another moment that we're holding our baby dressed in blue
Every moment we hold our baby dressed in blue is precious to us
I don't want to let you go
I don't want to lose you or say goodbye
This ain't the way it's supposed to go
Our situation is not how it should be

Every day we're falling apart when you're not around
Maybe there's a reason, can you let us know?
Perhaps there's an explanation, could you please inform us?
People say your eyes are like mine
Others claim that your eyes resemble mine
Even if the rest of you are echoes of your mom
Even though the rest of you shares similarities with your mother
Can't we just pretend you'll be fine?
Can't we imagine that you'll be okay despite the circumstances?
We placed your crib across the room to catch the morning sun
We positioned your crib on the opposite side of the room to capture the early sunlight

When I find myself in times of trouble
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom
Let it be
And in my hour of darkness
She is standing right in front of me
Speaking words of wisdom
Let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom
Let it be
And when the broken-hearted people
Living in the world agree
There will be an answer
Let it be
For though they may be parted there is
Still a chance that they will see
There will be an answer
Let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
Yeah, there will be an answer
Let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom
Let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom
Let it be
And when the night is cloudy
There is still a light that shines on me
Shine until tomorrow
Let it be
I wake up to the sound of music
Mother Mary comes to me
Speaking words of wisdom
Let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, yeah, let it be
There will be an answer
Let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, yeah, let it be
There will be an answer
Let it be
Let it be, let it be, let it be, yeah, let it be
Whisper words of wisdom
Let it be

Last month my dad passed away and he always loved The Beatles, it grew onto me, so I was going to use Let It Be as the song for the funeral, after hearing your version I decided to use this. This is an absolute perfect cover, it's beautiful and very soulful, thank you.
Salvatore Manalo
I'm so sorry for your loss Callum. I also grew to love the Beatles because of my parents. Thank you for your kind words and im honored to have played a small role in celebrating your dad's life.
