Don't Let Me Go
Yearning Echoes: 'Don't Let Me Go' by Malik Bash Unveils a Love in Free Fall
Lyrics
I was stumbling down
I was in a state of confusion or difficulty.
Deep down in a hole I can’t get out
I was deeply trapped in a situation that seems impossible to escape.
I don’t really care if I find a way out
I don't care about finding a way out because it doesn't matter unless it involves the person being referred to.
Cause if it ain’t you I don’t wanna touch solid ground
If the person mentioned is not involved, the speaker prefers not to be on stable ground.
Please don’t- Don’t let me go
Plea to the person not to let go of the speaker.
Don’t you ever let me down
A request not to disappoint or betray the speaker.
I’m losing altitude
The speaker is experiencing a decline or loss of position.
I don’t need gravity from you
The speaker doesn't need any emotional weight or burden from the person referred to.
Please don’t- Don’t let me go
Reiteration of the plea not to let go.
Don’t you ever let me down
Reiteration of the request not to disappoint or betray.
Falling - no parachute
The speaker is falling without any safety net or support.
and I don’t need a thing but you
The speaker only needs the person referred to, nothing else.
Don’t let me go - Don’t let me down
Repetition of the plea not to be let go or disappointed.
Don’t let me go hitting the ground
The speaker doesn't want to hit the emotional ground or face a downfall.
Please don’t- Don’t let me go
Reiteration of the plea not to let go.
I was broke enough
The speaker was emotionally shattered.
In a million pieces I can’t pick up
The speaker feels broken into pieces that are hard to put together.
And I don’t really know if I will ever know love
Uncertainty about experiencing love and a desire for it with the person mentioned.
But if I ever do - want it with you or no one
If the speaker ever experiences love, it should be with the person referred to, or no one else.
Please don’t- Don’t let me go
Reiteration of the plea not to let go.
Don’t you ever let me down
Reiteration of the request not to disappoint or betray.
I’m losing altitude
The speaker is still losing emotional stability or support.
I don’t need gravity from you
The speaker doesn't want any emotional burden from the person mentioned.
Please don’t- Don’t let me go
Reiteration of the plea not to let go.
Don’t you ever let me down
Reiteration of the request not to disappoint or betray.
Falling - no parachute
Reinforcement of the speaker falling without support or safety.
and I don’t need a thing but you
The speaker only needs the person referred to, nothing else.
Don’t let me go - Don’t let me down
Repetition of the plea not to be let go or disappointed.
Don’t let me go hitting the ground
The speaker wants to avoid hitting emotional ground or facing a downfall.
Please don’t- Don’t let me go
Reiteration of the plea not to let go.
Please don’t- Don’t let me go
Continued plea not to let go.
Please don’t - Oh, please don’t
Continued plea not to let go, emphasizing the importance of it.
Don’t let me go
Final plea not to be let go.
