music and lyrics by Kristen and Robert Lopez, performed by Idina Menzel as Elsa, the Snow Queen of Arendelle, in Disney Frozen (2013) animated movie.
The song presents Queen Elsa, who flees her kingdom when she publicly loses control of her ability to generate ice. She creates Olaf, funny and harmless snowman, built with Princess Anna in their childhood, and also a magnificent ice castle for herself.
Lyrics and pictures
The snow glows white on the mountain tonightNot a footprint to be seen.
A kingdom of isolation
And it looks like I'm the queen.
The wind is howling like this swirling storm inside
Couldn't keep it in, heaven knows I tried!
Don't let them in, don't let them see
Be the good girl you always have to be.
Conceal, don't feel, don't let them know
Well, now they know!
Let it go, let it go!
Can't hold it back anymore.
Let it go, let it go!
Turn away and slam the door!
I don't care
What they're going to say.
Let the storm rage on
The cold never bothered me anyway!
It's funny how some distance
Makes everything seem small
And the fears that once controlled me
Can't get to me at all!
It's time to see what I can do
To test the limits and break through.
No right, no wrong, no rules for me I'm free!
Let it go, let it go
I am one with the wind and sky
Let it go, let it go!
You'll never see me cry!
Here I stand
And here I'll stay.
Let the storm rage on!
My power flurries through the air into the ground
My soul is spiraling in frozen fractals all around
And one thought crystallizes like an icy blast.
I'm never going back
The past is in the past!
Let it go, let it go!
And I'll rise like the break of dawn.
Let it go, let it go!
That perfect girl is gone!
Here I stand
In the light of day
Let the storm rage on
The cold never bothered me anyway!
