Let Me Love You
Ariana Grande Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I just broke up with my ex
Now I'm out here single, I don't really know what's next
But I ain't even trippin', I'mma chill and sit back
And I know they will be coming from the right and the left, left, left
I just broke up with my ex
You're the one I'm feeling as I'm laying on your chest
Good conversation got me holding my breath
And I don't normally say this but goddamn, you're the best, best, best

And if it feels right, promise I don't mind
And if it feels right, promise I'll stay here all night

Just let me lo-o-o-o-o-o-o-love you, you
Just let me lo-o-o-o-o-o-o-love you, you
Just let me lo-o-o-o-o-o-o-love you, you
Just let me lo-o-o-o-o-o-o-love you, you

As I'm laying on your chest
I'll be out here thinkin' 'bout it, boy, it's just a guess
But something just keeps telling me I'm better than the rest
And I ain't tryna rush you, but goddamn, I'm a mess, mess, mess

And if it feels right, promise I don't mind
And if it feels right, promise I'll stay here all night

Just let me lo-o-o-o-o-o-o-love you, you
Just let me lo-o-o-o-o-o-o-love you, you
Just let me lo-o-o-o-o-o-o-love you, you
Just let me lo-o-o-o-o-o-o-love you, you

I say, girl, you need a hot boy
She say, you need to stop fuckin' with them thots, boy
I say you need a real nigga she said yes Lord
And what you need your ex for, I'm triple X, Lord
Okay, Ariana my lil' mama, goodbye to the good girl
My ex tripping, it's no Biggie, I 2Pac, shook her
I'm laid up with my new thing
She lay her head on my new chain
Then the mood change
My name change from Lil Wayne to Ooh Wayne
Oh Lord, she grinding on this Grande
Oh Lord, I'm drowning, I'm gonna need that coast guard
And when it comes to that nigga, I give her amnesia
She just looking for love
She says she single and I'm her feature, oh my God

(You're no good, but it's time I love you, baby)
Just let me lo-o-o-o-o-o-o-love you, you
Just let me lo-o-o-o-o-o-o-love you, you (she's looking for love)
(I'm looking for love)
She's looking for love
(You're looking for love baby)
Just let me lo-o-o-o-o-o-o-love you, you (she's looking for love)
(I'm looking for love babe)
She's just looking for love
She's just looking for love

I'mma give her that love
He gon' gimme that love
She's just looking for love
Boy, I'm looking for love, baby
I'mma give her that love




I'mma give her that
I'mma give her that

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to the song "Let Me Love You" by Ariana Grande and Lil Wayne are about two people who have just met after the singer's recent break-up with her ex-boyfriend. The singer explains how her ex is now in the past, and she is open to explore the potential of a new relationship with the person she is singing to. The lyrics are romantic and intimate, with lines such as "You're the one I'm feeling as I'm laying on your chest" and "Just let me love you."


The chorus of the song repeatedly asks the person to "just let me love you." This line is backed by the lyrics that describe how the singer is willing to be patient and go at the pace of the other person if they feel it is right. The lyrics show that the singer is confident in themselves, as they believe that they are better than anyone else the other person has dated before.


The rap verse by Lil Wayne brings a different perspective to the song, as he presents himself as the person the singer is trying to pursue. Wayne delivers a sexually suggestive verse in which he describes the physical contact between himself and the singer. He also talks about his reputation as a rapper, as well as the fact that he is more attractive to the singer than her ex-boyfriend.
