Don't Let Go
The Polaroid People Lyrics

You never knew how much
The singer didn't believe the person they loved knew how much they cared about them

You really meant to me
The person the singer loved was incredibly important to them

And I don't think you ever will
The singer doubts that the person they love will ever truly understand how deeply they feel

Coz it's impossible for me
The singer feels unable to adequately express their feelings in words

To put it into words
The singer struggles to articulate their emotions

But the look in my eyes
The singer believes their eyes convey their feelings better than words ever could

Speaks louder than the words
The singer believes their eyes can express their emotions more powerfully than any written or spoken word

That I wrote for you tonight
The singer has attempted to express their feelings through writing but feels it's inadequate

But I just can't bear the?
The singer finds something (presumably their separation from the person they love) unbearable

Nights like these alone
The singer is referring to the feeling of loneliness they experience at night

Laying frozen in the cold
The singer describes feeling cold and vulnerable without the warmth of their loved one

I pray to god that I'm here temporarily
The singer hopes that their painful separation is not permanent

Coz I can't take it anymore
The singer is struggling with their emotions and can't bear the distance from the person they love

And I need you more than ever
The singer's feelings have intensified and they feel a greater need for the person they love

Don't let go
The singer is begging the person they love not to give up on them

Please don't let me go
The singer is expressing their fear of being abandoned by the person they love

I'm begging you don't let me go
The singer is reiterating their plea for the person they love to stay with them

Coz I'm struggling without you
The singer is finding life difficult without the person they love

And I try to sleep at night
The singer is experiencing difficulty with sleep due to their emotions

But you're all I think about
The person the singer loves is constantly occupying their thoughts

And I try to lift my heart
The singer is attempting to feel more positive

But it just sinks further down
Despite their efforts, the singer's emotions continue to worsen

And only your kiss
The singer believes physical affection from their loved one is the only thing that can help them feel better

Could break me out of this
The singer believes that physical intimacy is the only thing that could help them out of their emotional rut

Coz I'm struggling
The singer is continuing to have difficulty with their emotions

And I just can't bear the?
The singer is still finding something (presumably their separation from the person they love) unbearable

I close my eyes and picture you beside me
The singer is attempting to imagine their loved one with them to ease the pain of their separation

But it's killing me inside
Despite their efforts, the singer is still struggling with their emotions

Coz I'm falling apart without you
The singer believes their life is crumbling without the person they love

And I love you
The singer reiterates their strong feelings for the person they are separated from
