Let You Go
The Wild & Free Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I´ve been running like a sentence
Never begun
I´ve been looking for a way to let you know
I got nothing left to fill out spaces
I got nothing but a septum coming undone
I´ve been doing circles and it shows
Every place that I hide
Tell me that I,
I was wrong to let you go
Every search that I heel
Every flower that I feel
Tell me that I,
I was wrong to let you go
Let you go, Let you go, Let you go x4"
Its the little things that make you crazy
Like the thought of someone else touching your skin
I can see you everywhere i go
It could be the sight of your face
It could be the aroma of your breath
Still as the river as it flows
Every cloud in the sky
Every place that I hide
Tell me that I,
I was wrong to let you go
Every search that I heel
Every flower that I feel
Tell me that I,
I was wrong to let you go
Let you go let you go let you go x4
In The Wild Strawberrys's song "Let U Go," the singer expresses feelings of regret and longing for a past relationship. The lyrics suggest that the singer has traveled to familiar places, seemingly trying to find a way to fill the void left by the breakup. However, they have come up empty-handed and feel as though they are running in circles towards an inevitable end. Even the little things, like the thought of someone else touching their former partner's skin, make the singer feel crazy. They see the other person everywhere they go, whether it be through the sight of their face or the scent of their breath. The imagery of the river flowing suggests a sense of timelessness, a feeling that the memories of the past relationship will always be with them.
The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "Every cloud in the sky, every place that I hide / Tell me that I, I was wrong to let you go / Every search that I heal, every flower that I feel / Tell me that I, I was wrong to let you go." The singer is constantly searching for signs that they made a mistake in ending the relationship. They desire confirmation that they should have held onto their partner, and the repetition of the phrase emphasizes the desperation the singer feels.
Overall, "Let U Go" is a bittersweet song about the struggle of moving on from a relationship. The lyrics paint a vivid picture of the emotional turmoil the singer is experiencing, and the melody of the song only adds to the melancholic mood.

I´ve been to all the familiar places
I have tried everything that used to make me happy
I´ve been running like a sentence never begun
I have been trying to escape from my problems like a prisoner who's sentence never seems to start
I´ve been looking for a way to let you know
I have been trying to find a way to tell you how I feel
I got nothing left to fill out spaces
I have nothing left to fill the void you left in me
I got nothing but a septum coming undone
All I have is my nose ring that's coming loose, reflecting how I'm falling apart
I´ve been doing circles and it shows
I have been going around in circles, and it's clear for everyone to see
Its the little things that make you crazy
It's the small details that drive you insane
Like the thought of someone else touching your skin
The mere thought of another person touching you is unbearable
I can see you everywhere i go
You are constantly on my mind and I am reminded of you wherever I go
It could be the sight of your face
Just seeing your face is enough to stir up emotions within me
It could be the aroma of your breath
Even the smell of your breath is enough to trigger memories and emotions
Still as the river as it flows
Despite everything changing, the feeling of missing you is still as constant as a flowing river
Every cloud in the sky
Every moment of darkness and sadness
Every place that I hide
Every time I try to run away from my emotions
Tell me that I, I was wrong to let you go
I regret letting you go and want to hear that it was a mistake
Every search that I heel
Every attempt to find happiness and move on
Every flower that I feel
Every bit of beauty I see in the world reminds me of what I've lost
Let you go, Let you go, Let you go x4
I can't stop thinking about how much I regret letting you go
