It seems this song generally concerns loss. It primarily focuses on the loss in forgetting a word, and hoping that the loss is not permanent; as the loss of language would reduce the speaker to a state helplessness similar to an infant.
At the end as far as I can tell he is talking about what would happen if he were to lose all of his memories (or perhaps merely his capacity for language); thereby rendering him a stranger to his partner. In which case he would want his partner to simply let him go.
