Never Let You Go
Taraxacum Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

A curious cat strays down the boulevard
Where the lonely spend their nights
Neon signs promise you everything you want
And someone's singing for his rights

Out in the dark
Out in the night
Out in the rain

All the broken hearted people
Try to hide their shame

But I - I'll never let you go!
I'll never let you go
As long as the wild winds blow
There'll be no more wasted nights again
'cause I - I'll never let you go!

An old clochard roams through the backstreets
Searchin' for a place to sleep
Look at the drunken man, he'll never get enough
To drown the emptiness so deep inside

Out in the dark
Out in the night
Out in the rain
All the broken hearted people
Try to hide their shame

But I - I'll never let you go!
I'll never let you go
As long as the wild winds blow

There'll be no more wasted nights again
'cause I - I'll never let you go!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of Taraxacum's song "Never Let You Go" paint a picture of a city at night, where the lonely and broken-hearted wander the streets looking for something to cling to. The song's narrator, however, promises never to let go of their loved one, no matter what happens. The first verse describes a curious cat wandering down the boulevard, where they encounter the lonely and the promise of everything they could want, represented by neon signs. The second verse describes an old clochard, or homeless person, wandering through backstreets looking for a place to sleep while the drunken man is trying to drown his deep emptiness.

The chorus is the singer's promise to their loved one that they will never let go. They will stand by them through thick and thin, as long as the wild winds blow. The final lines of the chorus assert that there will be no more wasted nights again, implying that they have been through hard times together but have come out stronger on the other side.

Line by Line Meaning

A curious cat strays down the boulevard
A curious person explores new places and experiences

Where the lonely spend their nights
A place where people who feel alone go to spend their evenings

Neon signs promise you everything you want
Advertisements make unrealistic promises to entice you

And someone's singing for his rights
A person is advocating for what they believe they deserve

Out in the dark
Isolated and in the absence of light

Out in the night
Experiencing the darkness of the evening

Out in the rain
Getting wet and cold from the downpour

All the broken hearted people
Individuals who are emotionally wounded

Try to hide their shame
Attempting to conceal their perceived shortcomings

But I - I'll never let you go!
I won't abandon or let you down

I'll never let you go
I will always be there for you
