What a surprise, "lasciare" can also mean "to go away from something"! (www.wordreference.com and dict.leo.org confirm that)
It doesn't seem to be as much an issue of which is correct, as which is more formal or informal. These links explain it:

If you Google "can versus may" you'll find even more. :)
