Lyrics to Thicke - 'Let U Go'

THIKE - LET YOU GO
I’m so confused
I don’t know why I let you treat me like you do
We’ve got issues
I let you walk in and out of my life and that’s not right
So much hurt
So much pain
I never thought that I could feel like this but I do
Being in a relationship with you is like a rollercoaster.

(Chorus)
(and it all ends right there right there)
I let the rain fall down on me
I let you get away with everything (woooaahh)
I let you slide
My tears are high
to cover up mistakes you made (ooohhh heyyyy)
I let the rain fall down on me (i let it fall)
I let you get away with everything (woooaahh)
I let you slide
My tears are high
to cover up mistakes you made
(VERSE 2)
no more sleepless nights
Or waiting for you to unlock the door and come inside
I’ve gotta get a hold of myself
Cause I have too much pride
(For you to think that you can do the things you do )
i know that you don’t love me like you say you do
(i have to tell myself to just let go of you)
(spoken)
(Male)I’m sorry
(band member)Apology not accepted

(CHORUS)
(and it all ends right there right there)
I let the rain fall down on me (ooohh)
I let you get away with everything (yes i did)
I let you slide
My tears are high
to cover up mistakes you made(ohh the rain falls down yeaaahhh)
I let the rain fall down on me
I let you get away with everything (wooahhhh)
I let you slide
My tears are high (high)
to cover up mistakes you made

(BRIDGE)
Everything you did baby
I let you slide
Woaah
Everything you did baby
I let you slide
woooaahhhh
(I ,I gotta let you go repeated to the end)
Never said anything to hurt you baby
(Let you goo)Yeaahhhh
ohhh
ohhhohhhhhhh
I Yeaahhhhh
(Let you goooo)
Woaahhhh
I’m sorry(male)
Let you goooooo
I’m sorry (male)




From the lyrics to 'Let U Go', we felt it was very important to create a clear distinction between lyrics and visuals. As one of Goodwin's main ideologies based around music video analysis, we thought that to do this successfully we had to make the video look as professional as possible.
We had ideas such as a girl looking confused and not set on her mind with the lyrics 'I'm so confused' and when it says 'I let the rain fall down on me', we would have filmed when it was raining outside, so the scene created a good combination of both pathetic fallacy and deeper meaning.
