Never Wanna Let You Go
Megan Nicole Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Quit playing games
Don't lead me on
Make me feel like I'm your one
When you're gonna let me go
Why won't you give me a chance
To show you every side of me
And how we're meant to be
'Cause you're too scared to let me in
And let this love begin

Never wanna let you go
Never wanna be alone
Tell me how it ought to be right now
Never wanna leave your side
Never wanna say goodbye
Tell me how it ought to be right now

I see the way you look at her
The way you used to look at me
Now I can finally see
Broken hearts and broken dreams
There will never be a you and me
Can't find the air to breathe

'Cause you're too scared to let me in
And let this love begin

Never wanna let you go
Never wanna be alone
Tell me how it ought to be right now
Never wanna leave your side
Never wanna say goodbye
Tell me how it ought to be right now

'Cause I'm falling
Do you still care?
'Cause I'm falling
Will you be there?

Never wanna let you go
Never wanna be alone
Tell me how it ought to be right now
Never wanna leave your side
Never wanna say goodbye
Tell me how it ought to be right now

Never wanna let you go
Never wanna be alone
Tell me how it ought to be right now
Never wanna leave your side
Never wanna say goodbye




Tell me how it ought to be
Tell me how it ought to be right now

Overall Meaning

The song "Never Wanna Let You Go" by Megan Nicole is a heart-wrenching ballad about unrequited love. The lyrics start with the plea to the person the singer is deeply in love with to stop playing games and give her an honest chance. The singer wants to feel like she is the only one for this person, but they keep leading her on. The lyrics then transition to a realization that this person is not fully committed to her, and her heart is breaking. She sees the way the person looks at another, and she knows that she is not the only one for them. She knows that this relationship is not going anywhere and that there is no future for them. The chorus repeats the desire to keep this person by her side and never let them go, but she knows that it is impossible.


The line "cause you're too scared to let me in and let this love begin" is particularly poignant. It speaks to the fear many people face when starting a new relationship. It can be scary to open up to someone and allow yourself to be vulnerable, but without taking that chance, true love may never blossom. The song expresses the frustration and sadness that come with unrequited love and wanting something that seems impossible.


Overall, "Never Wanna Let You Go" is a relatable, emotional song that speaks to anyone who has ever been in love with someone who couldn't or wouldn't give them a chance.

I'm crying because of this song. My boyfriend and I broke up after over a 2 and a half year relationship and the same day, he started seeing this other girl that always flirted with him during our relationship. This song is a great representation of how I felt for months and I still feel that way a little even though we got back together. I hope the singer never experienced that and is just really good at making up a song about it. It's the worst pain a person can feel. When you're completely in love with somebody that you thought still loved you and is now telling someone else they love them. I'm so sorry if you've ever felt that pain.

You both are gonna find someone great in ur life
