Masih berada di puncak dari tiga nominasi Juno, Ali Gatie dari Toronto baru saja merilis single barunya "Can't Let You Go".

Balada yang penuh perasaan adalah single pertama dari EP mendatangnya, The Idea of ??Her.

Beralih antara bahasa Inggris dan bahasa ibunya, Arab, "'Can't Let You Go' adalah tentang romansa tanpa harapan yang mempertahankan cinta yang sudah lama pudar," kata Gatie.

"Saya menulis lagu untuk menggambarkan perjuangan untuk terus maju dan betapa mustahilnya hal itu kadang-kadang."

Lagu ini intim dan rentan dalam gaya khas Gatie, perlahan terbakar saat mencapai bagian chorusnya. Video musik mencerminkan hal ini, karena Gatie didukung oleh penari berbalut sutra dengan latar belakang hitam dan putih. Sederhana dan efektif, seperti lagunya sendiri.

Lirik

I can't let you go
Trust me, I've tried and I swear I'm still trying to know
How to move on?
If somebody told me, I still wouldn't know where to go
I'd follow the stars
Wish I could see them, the sky feels so dark when you're gone
I'd follow my heart
But you took it wit' you the day you walked out of that door

No, I can't pretend
That you and I had never met, no, no, no
If movin' on means I should forget

Then even if I could, I wouldn't
No matter what the price is, I would pay
Don't matter if I should or shouldn't
I woulda never gave up anyway

Long nights of cryin'
I felt like I was dyin' every night
I'd rather keep on fightin'
At least then I've got a reason to fight

You gave me hope
Something to hold on and look forward for
And after it all
You left me with scars and said that you were never involved
You knew I was weak
You sold me a dream and knew I would believe in your lies
What's wrong with me?
I knew you were lyin' but I had no courage to leave

And I can't pretend
That you and I had never met, no, no, no
If movin' on means I should forget

Then even if I could, I wouldn't
No matter what the price is, I would pay
Don't matter if I should or shouldn't
It wouldn't even matter anyway

Then even if I could, I wouldn't
No matter what the price is, I would pay
Don't matter if I should or shouldn't
I woulda never gave up anyway

Long nights of cryin'
I felt like I was dyin' every night
I'd rather keep on fightin'
At least then I've got a reason to fight

Khaliki matrouhi
Ya galbi, ya rouhi
Khabiki ma5rouhi
Khalini ma2k
(Khaliki matrouhi)
(Ya omri, ya rouhi)
(Khabiki ma5rouhi)
(I can't let you go)
