Let U Go
The Wild Strawberrys Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

"I´ve been to all the familiar places
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 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"
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

Overall Meaning

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.

@Lokalaugenschein_

Besides the latest Dance music productions ATB is an absoulte Hit-Guarantee. It's a pity that so many of his (old) songs aren't really noticed and - at least a few more of them - a bit higher appreciated yet.
