Let Go (feat. Emeli Sandé)

If you can see me

Then you're probably a little too close

So, you think you could love me?

Well, you gotta be stronger than most

'Cause my ex didn't like it, didn't like it

No, my friends they don't like it, they don't like it

Somebody remind me

When's the right time, when's the right time to let go?

Uh, dear, whoever the fuck is listenin'

Tell me of the pleasures of bein' a normal citizen

'Cause all these fittin's and Vivian's keepin' me from fittin' in

Why do I feel safer on stage than in my own livin' room?

My grandma say that if I leave my drink, I shouldn't sip again

Ooh, this tour has got me feelin' tired like I'm itchin'

And I even know it's physical differences than my siblings

That's why I feel so down even at the top of the Wimbledon

If you can see me

Then you're probably a little too close

So, you think you could love me?

Well, you gotta be stronger than most

'Cause my ex didn't like it, didn't like it

No, my friends they don't like it, they don't like it

Somebody remind me

When's the right time, when's the right time to let go?

Ah, dear, whoever the fuck is witnessin'

Disturbin' London, independent black businessmen

Based on the work and the effort I'm gonna give this year

Everybody's gettin' the presents they want for Christmas, yeah

Life is only ninety-nine winters

So I'm tryna bond with daddy even though I don't like dinners

Don't be confused by my image, I'm no fuckin' public pin-up

But my heart won't let me say no to a picture

If you can see me

Then you're probably a little too close

So, you think you could love me?

Well, you gotta be stronger than most

'Cause my ex didn't like it, didn't like it

No, my friends they don't like it, they don't like it

Somebody remind me

When's the right time, when's the right time to let go?

Uh, dear, whoever the fuck is, fuck it

This is discovery, hate it or love it

I'm now officially the property of the public since

Licensing my album and signin' a deal to be published

But none of these songs are written for me nor am I puppet

Journalists come for interviews, but stay on the subject

Yeah, no, yeah, are we done yet?

Questions, you've asked me hundreds

Now, can you grant me some rest?

Because I'm tired of it, I'm livin' out my dream

And I'm tired from it, if music needed savin', I'd die for it

Music's where my heart is, I'm alive for it

I promise

I'm never liked, my heart might break

Here in the dark, yeah, we'll be saved

I don't care, no lookin' back

I've never been, never been this far from home

If you can see me

Then you're probably a little too close

So, you think you could love me?

Well, you gotta be stronger than most

'Cause my ex didn't like it, didn't like it

No, my friends they don't like it, they don't like it

Somebody remind me

When's the right time, when's the right time to let go?

When's the right time to let go?
