Let You Go
Secret Someones Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And you remember all the good times
You don't want to say but I can see it in your eyes
I gotta let you go
You don't want to hurt me
You're so sweet
And I don't blame you for a thing
I gotta let you go
Think I gotta let you go
Ooooh
It's so hard to face the end
Ooooh
I don't want to lose a friend
But we've drifted apart and it feels so far from where we used to be
Ooooh
Trapped inside a memory
Think I gotta let you go
Think I gotta let you go
When we're crying broken in half
You find a way to make me laugh
For a moment I doubt all the doubts we had
But I don't want to let you go
Cause losing you feels like losing me too
And I don't know how to live without you
But the pieces don't fit like they used to
I gotta let you go
I – I – I gotta let you go
Ooooh
It's so hard to face the end
Ooooh
I don't want to lose a friend
But we've drifted apart and it feels so far from where we used to be
Ooooh
Trapped inside a memory
I gotta let you go
I gotta let you go-oh
Ooooh
It's so hard to face the end
Ooooh
I don't want to lose a friend
But we've drifted apart and it feels so far from where we used to be
Ooooh
Trapped inside a memory
Think I gotta let you go
(I gotta let you go)
Think I gotta let you go
(I gotta let you go)
Think I gotta let you go
(I gotta let you go)
Think I gotta let you go
The lyrics to Secret Someones's song Let You Go depict a painful realization that a relationship that once brought happiness to both parties has come to an end. The singer understands that it's time to move on, but they still feel the hurt that comes with saying goodbye. They acknowledge the other person's reluctance to end things and the good times they shared together. The singer also recognizes that the other person doesn't want to hurt them and doesn't blame them for anything. However, they know that they can't keep going on like this. The two have drifted apart and the relationship is no longer what it once was. The singer has come to terms with the fact that they need to let go, despite the fear of losing a friend and the sense of attachment they feel towards the other person. The lyrics capture the bittersweet moment when one must let go of someone they love, even if it causes them pain.

Honey I know you hate goodbyes
I understand that you dislike saying farewell
And you remember all the good times
You fondly recall all of our past experiences together
You don't want to say but I can see it in your eyes
Although you don't want to admit it, it's evident in your expression
I gotta let you go
I must move on without you
You don't want to hurt me
You don't wish to cause me pain
You're so sweet
You have a kind nature
And I don't blame you for a thing
I hold no resentment towards you
I can never say what I really mean
I struggle to express myself honestly
Think I gotta let you go
I believe I must move on without you
It's so hard to face the end
Accepting the conclusion is a difficult task
I don't want to lose a friend
I value our friendship and desire to maintain it
But we've drifted apart and it feels so far from where we used to be
We've grown apart and our connection is different from what it once was
Trapped inside a memory
Stuck recalling the past
When we're crying broken in half
In moments of distress and despair
You find a way to make me laugh
You still have the ability to bring joy to me
For a moment I doubt all the doubts we had
In that instant, my previous uncertainties seem insignificant
But I don't want to let you go
I still desire to hold onto our relationship
Cause losing you feels like losing me too
Your absence would result in me losing a part of myself
And I don't know how to live without you
I'm uncertain of how to carry on without you in my life
But the pieces don't fit like they used to
Our connection is not as strong as it once was
I – I – I gotta let you go
I must move on from our relationship

Yes, I know. That's really too bad. They were excellent and had the potential to really make it.

I saw these guys play in Montclair. They are awesome live and I got to talk to the drummer, Zach and he's pretty rad.
