My song “If I let you go”

The lyric
If I let you go?

Day after day
Time passed away
And I just can't get you off my mind
Nobody knows, I hide it inside
I keep on searching but I can't find
The courage to show to letting you know
I've never felt so much love before
And once again I'm thinking about
Taking the easy way out

*But if I let you go I will never know
What my life would be, holding you close to me
Will I ever see you smiling back at me? (oh yeah)
How will I know
If I let you go?

Night after night I hear myself say
Why can't this feeling just fade away
There's no one like you (no one like you)
You speak to my heart (speak to my heart)
It's such a shame we're worlds apart
I'm too shy to ask, I'm too proud to lose
But sooner or later I gotta choose
And once again I'm thinking about
Taking the easy way out

(repeat * )

If I let you go oh baby
Once again I'm thinking about
Taking the easy way out

( repeat * 2 times)

Meaning of the song

This song is telling about the story of love. In the first part of the song, there was a man who has fallen in love with a girl for a long time but he didn’t tell her. The days were gone by and the time was passing away. He couldn’t stop thinking about his girl. She was in his mind all the time. And his love was a secret that he didn’t tell to anybody. He tried to find his courage and braveness to confess to this girl that he loves her. But he couldn’t find it at all.

This love was his first love; he never had much more love like this time before. So he tried to stop thinking about her and find the way of solution. He thought that the easiest way was letting this girl away.

This man thought that if he lets her go away, he will never know about his happy marriage life. If she loves him too, he will lose a chance to live with his girl and losing her smile. He couldn’t decide what he should do. He thought that he couldn’t know about the future, what will happen if he let this girl away.

In the second part of the song, the man heard himself saying why this feeling of love didn’t go out of his mind although the days and nights were went by at night. His girl didn’t like anyone and he thought that in the girl's opinion, they weren’t a couple. There was a little of hope for him.
In the last part, the man was so embarrassed to ask other people for helping him about his love. He was happy and proud that he didn’t lose her in that moment but one day he had to choose that he wanted to tell her the truth or letting her go. This thinking made him wanted to let her go away, but he can’t decide it yet.
