“Let It Be”, the closing track on Hayley Kiyoko’s debut album Expectations, is a heart-wrenching yet triumphant breakup anthem. Hayley sings about her struggle to bring the relationship to a necessary end over a rich beat and swirling choral back-up.
In an Instagram post on the day of the single’s...
[Verse 1]
Baby, come around 'cause I need you
Baby, calm me down, let me see you
'Cause you know you're my operator
Let me show every single layer
Losin' all my power just to have you
Hundred miles an hour thinkin' 'bout you
Every night gets a little tougher
How can I dream about another?
[Chorus]
'Cause I believe
We're the ones who had it all
I believe
We just had to learn to fall
I miss you, I love you, so it's really hard to see
Yeah, we just gotta let it be
[Post Chorus]
Ooh
Let us see, be free
[Verse 2]
Baby, come around 'cause I want ya
Layin' on the floor here without ya
'Cause you know you're my operator
Help me show every single layer
Givin' baby steps a new meanin'
Yeah, I'm makin' such a mess of my feelings
Won't you just meet me in the middle?
Where's the love, won't you give a little?
[Chorus]
'Cause I believe
We're the ones who had it all
I believe (I believe, I believe)
We just had to learn to fall
I miss you, I love you, so it's really hard to see
Yeah, we just gotta let it be
[Post Chorus]
Ooh
Let us see, be free
Ooh
Let us see, be free
[Bridges]
Can't imitate us, it's breakin' my bones
Caught up in chaos that keeps me alone
Wasted the beautiful all on my own (Be)
I'm makin' a new home
Washin' the sheets 'cause you're still in my bed
Can't leave the dark 'cause you're all in my head
All in my head and it's killin' me, and it's killin' me
'Cause we're at the end
[Chorus]
I believe (I believe)
We're the ones who had it all
I believe (I believe, I believe)
We just had to learn to fall (Learn to fall)
I miss you, I love you, so it's really hard to see (It's really hard to see)
Yeah, we just gotta let it be
