Let Me Go Lyrics

A room full of sadness
A broken heart
And only me to blame
For every single part
No Science or Religion
Could make this whole
To be loved, but never loved
To have, but never hold
It’s a life alone, and a desperate need
To be held to be loved so
This is gonna take a bit of getting used to,
But I know what’s right for you

Fly high and Let Me Go
That sky will save your soul
When you pass by then you’ll know
That this gonna take a bit of getting used to
But I know what’s right for you
Let me go

A head full of madness
And no where safe
When tears aren’t big enough,
And love turns into hate
It’s a life alone, and a desperate need
To be held to be loved so
This gonna take a bit of getting used to
But I know what’s right for you

Fly high and let me go
That sky will save your soul
When you pass by then you’ll know
That this gonna take a bit of getting used to
But I know what’s right for you

So let me go life will get better
Find the love I never gave ya
I know you lie there waiting all night long,
So find where you belong

Fly high and let me go (Let me go)
That sky will save your soul (Let it save your soul tonight)
Fly high and let me go (Let me go let me go)
That sky will save your soul
But this gonna take a bit of getting used to
But I know what’s right for you
Let me go

Let Me Go

In the documentary When Corden Met Barlow, Gary Barlow explained that this song is about his daughter Poppy, who was stillborn in 2012. "It keeps a life and a flame in the whole thing," he said. "It should be a celebration that song, because in some respects, it's alive that record and those lyrics and what it relates to."

The first single from Since I Saw You Last - Barlow's first full length solo album in 14 years - this acoustic guitar driven track was influenced by Johnny Cash. "I've always liked folky, acoustic music but I've never fully explored it. I turned back time and was listening to Johnny Cash and early Elton John before I wrote 'Let Me Go,'" Barlow told The Sun. "I'm 42, I don't want to do urban or dance music."

The video was directed by "Sing" collaborator Ben Winston in New York and sees Barlow wheeling a piano around the streets of the Big Apple.

The song featured in a Compare the Market commercial. It found Barlow performing the song alongside CGI meerkats on Coronation Street's famous cobbles. The ad was commissioned to mark the first anniversary of the company sponsoring the ITV soap.
