Story Behind The Song

Lock down during Covid brought a reassessment of a relationship that was so hard to turn away from. Feelings of frustration and confusion having to fight to let go.

Song Description

Letting go of a love that is no good for you. Running from the danger it brings

Lyrics

GOTTA LET GO Words/Music S. Haworth c)2023
Intro
V1
Half a million words are rushing by me as
I try to run much faster than I know I really can
My shoes weren't made to keep this pace
The soles dissolving in the rain
Kids are throwing pebbles in a pond
And laughing like there's no tomorrow
I feel that fear again................... I can't even find my door.
CH
Ooh I gotta let go
Got no gun to fight this
Find a way home
Lock the door behind me
V2
Yesterday was just the same as midnight is today
The time is melting into darkness and to light
Lying staring at the ceiling watching all the paintwork peeling
Wonder if its blue or if its white
I close my eyes and let these things just fly away from me
Mid8 x2
Don't call me
don't tell me
you love me ........................ you don't know me anymore

CH x 2 guitar solo
V3
Living like a steeplechaser
Waiting for a prov-vo-cator
Wasting time when there's no time for free
Laughing staring at that ceiling watching all that paintwork peeling
Now I realise that it was green.
I close my eyes and let these things just fly away from me
Oh lord just fly away from me
CH x2
Ooh I gotta let go
Got no gun to fight this
Find a way home
And lock the door behind me
Lock the door behind me
