Let Me Go On
Seabird Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

We used up all we had
Deviated from the plan
And things weren't working out as we all hoped
The timing was right
But it all ended with a fight
The band wanted out and so did I

Just let me go on

Just give me one more song
If it sucks we all go home
If not we sing along

We went our separate ways
And didn't see each other for days
It was clear that this just wasn't meant to be
We started out as friends
And then the seas started to sink in
And now we know why they call it the bitter end

Just let me go on
Just give me one more song
If it sucks we all go home
If not we sing along

Just give me one more night
I swear I'll make it right
If it hurts me I'll go home
If not we get along

Let me go on and on and on and on
Let me go on and on and on and on
Let me go on and on and on and on
Let me go on and on and on and on

Just give me one more night
I swear I'll make it right
If it hurts me I'll go home
If not we get along

I won't say this lying down
Gotta get you out of this town
If it hurts me I'll go home
If not we get along

Ladala-ladala-ladala

Let me go on and on and on and on
Let me go on and on and on and on

Let me go on and on and on and on
Let me go on and on and on and on

Line by Line Meaning

We used up all we had
We exhausted all our resources

Deviated from the plan
We strayed from our original plan

And things weren't working out as we all hoped
Our expectations were not met

The timing was right
The situation was opportune

But it all ended with a fight
We had a disagreement

The band wanted out and so did I
The group and I wanted to leave

Just let me go on
Allow me to keep going

Just give me one more song
Let me have another chance

If it sucks we all go home
If it doesn't work out, we'll leave

If not we sing along
If it works out, we'll enjoy it together

We went our separate ways
We parted ways

And didn't see each other for days
We didn't communicate for some time

It was clear that this just wasn't meant to be
It became evident that our collaboration wasn't destined to succeed

We started out as friends
We began as companions

And then the seas started to sink in
Gradually, things started to go wrong

And now we know why they call it the bitter end
The phrase "bitter end" now makes sense to us

Just give me one more night
Allow me one last chance

I swear I'll make it right
I promise to improve

If it hurts me I'll go home
If I fail, I'll leave

If not we get along
If it works out, we'll enjoy it together

Let me go on and on and on and on
Allow me to continue indefinitely

I won't say this lying down
I won't remain silent

Gotta get you out of this town
I need to leave this place

Seabird is amazing. One of my husbands and my favorite bands when we first dated circa 2009 and here we are jamming to it with our 3 year old son. Seabird, we love you.
