let you go
The Chainsmokers (feat. Great Good Fine Ok) Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

You end up alone after all that you've done
All that you've paid for
Did you get what you wanted?
Loaded the gun with all you were made of
When you're alone,
People don't think you know what you're made of, oh
You've been with me,
It's not up to see, it's all that you paid for
I'll find a way up, see you through what came to pay for
While we're alive, can we relax that, what are maids for

You were there for me
And I was there for you
No-oh, never let you go!
You will always be the one that I regret
How will I let you go?

You're here in the way
How could you stay after that you've paid for
Leave it in time, won't let you wait
How could you be assured?
You're holding out hope
I'm seeing it too, trying to find home

I think I'm back again
And I've come to understand my will
You tell me that I can't pretend
I hear that you care about your stuff,
But the most of things might feel rough
Let you go

Hol-holding out hope for you
Holding out hope
Holding out hope for you

You were there for me
And I was there for you
No-oh, never let you go!
You will always be the one that I regret
How will I let you go?

Let you go!
Let you go!
Let you go!
Let you go!

Hol-holding out hope for you!
Holding out hope for you
Holding out hope for you

You were there for me
And I was there for you
Oh oh, I remember times like that!
You will always be the one that I really love
Oh oh, never let you go!

Let you go!
Let you go!
Let you go!




Let you go!
Let you go!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics of The Chainsmokers' song Let You Go feat. Great Good Fine Ok are about a past relationship that ended abruptly. The first verse describes the regret and the loneliness that the singer feels. The phrase "did you get what you wanted?" suggests that the relationship was one-sided, and the line "loaded the gun with all you were made of" implies that the person gave everything they had to the relationship but it still fell apart. The singer then acknowledges that people often underestimate what someone is made of when they are alone. The second verse is directed towards the person the singer was in a relationship with. It seems that the person is still holding onto hope and wanting to reconcile, while the singer is hesitant to do so. The chorus repeats the sentiment that the singer will never let the person go despite everything that happened in their relationship.


Overall, the lyrics to Let You Go are emotional and convey a sense of regret and longing. The song speaks to the universal experience of lost love and the difficulty in letting go of someone who has become a fundamental part of your life. The melody is catchy and upbeat, which creates an interesting contrast with the melancholic lyrics. The inclusion of Great Good Fine Ok's backing vocals adds depth and texture to the song, elevating it beyond a typical synthpop anthem.

LYRICS


You end up alone after all that you've done
All that you've paid for
Did you get what you wanted?
Loaded the gun with all you were made of
When you're alone,
People don't think you know what you're made of, oh
You've been with me,
It's not up to see, it's all that you paid for
I'll find a way up, see you through what came to pay for
While we're alive, can we relax that, what are maids for

You were there for me
And I was there for you
No-oh, never let you go!
You will always be the one that I regret
How will I let you go?

You're here in the way
How could you stay after that you've paid for
Leave it in time, won't let you wait
How could you be assured?
You're holding out hope
I'm seeing it too, trying to find home

I think I'm back again
And I've come to understand my will
You tell me that I can't pretend
I hear that you care about your stuff,
But the most of things might feel rough
Let you go

Hol-holding out hope for you
Holding out hope
Holding out hope for you

You were there for me
And I was there for you
No-oh, never let you go!
You will always be the one that I regret
How will I let you go?

Let you go!

Oh oh, I remember times like that!
You will always be the one that I really love
Oh oh, never let you go!

"Let You Go"
(feat. Great Good Fine Ok)

You end up alone, after all that you've done
All that you've paid for
Did you get what you wanted?
You loaded a gun with all you were made of
When you're alone,
People don't think you know what you're made of, oh

Are you better than me?
It's not up to say, it's all that you wait for
Now I'll find a way, I'm seeing it through can you not be hateful.
While we're alive, can we relax, isn't that what are mates for?

You were there for me
And I was there for you
How will I let you go?
You will always be the one
That I regret
How will I let you go?

You're here in the way
How could you stay with all that I paid for?
Leave any time, won't let you wait
How could you be sure?
You're holding out hope
I'm seeing it too, I'm trying to follow, oh

I've been through hell and back again
I've come to understand that when
You tell me that I can't pretend
I either care about your stuff
Make the most of the things that might be rough
I let you go

Oh, holding out hope for you
Holding out hope,
Holding out hope for you

You were there for me
And I was there for you
How will I let you go?
You will always be the one that I regret
How will I let you go?
Let you go
Let you go
Let you go
Let you go

Oh, holding out hope for you
Holding out hope,
Holding out hope for you

You were there for me
And I was there for you
Oh oh, I remember times like that!
You will always be the one
That I regret
Ho-ow will I let you go?

Let you go
Let you go
Let you go
Let you go

You will always be the one that I really love
Oh oh, never let you go!

Let you go!
