Let You Go
Tim Schaufert Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Breaking down my walls again
I have nothing to defend myself
If I choose to let you in
Will you stay?
Or will you turn around
and leave me?

And everybody knows that I'm afraid
But it's not gonna break me
And you can have my soul with you, always
With every breathe that you take

And I'll let you in
To all the places that
Nobody else
Has ever been and
I'll show you my scars
If you'll erase them and
Give you my heart
If you won't break it

And now you're making me feel safe again
Everything's alright inside your arms
Tell me all your secrets and
Let me fill your heart with all my spells

And I'll let you in
To all the places that
Nobody else
Has ever been and
I'll show you my scars
If you'll erase them and




Give you my heart
If you won't break it

I want you to stay
I want you with me
I don′t wanna stop you from the things that you are meant to be
I want you to fly
Want you to feel free
But I'm too afraid, don′t how to say, go on without me

And now i'm crying all alone
And now you're flying on your own
And there′s a silence in my soul
Don′t wanna feel this way
But I don't wanna let you go
Don′t wanna let you go
Don't wanna let you go

I don′t wanna cry
Don't wanna be mean
Don′t want you to walk away from the all things you made with me
I want you to fly
Want you to feel free
I want you to stay, but i'm too afraid, you wanna leave me

And now i'm crying all alone
And now you′re flying on your own
And there′s a silence in the circle
Don't wanna feel this way
But I don′t wanna let you go
Don't wanna let you go

i want you to stay
i want you with me
but don't want to stop you
from the things that you were meant to be

i want you to fly
want you to feel free
but i'm too afraid
don't know how to say
go on without me

and now i'm crying all alone
and now you're flying on your own
and there's a silence in my soul
don't wanna feel this way
but i don't wanna let you go
let you go

i don't wanna cry
don't wanna be mean
don't want you to walk away
from all the things you made with me

i want you to fly
want you to feel free
i want you to stay
but i'm too afraid
you wanna leave me

and now i'm crying all alone
and now you're flying on your own
and there's a silence in my soul
don't wanna feel this way
but i don't wanna let you go
let you go

That was the song, almost 2 years ago when she left & I had to let her go listening to this. One night & a 4 minute song, hardcoded in memory forever.
