Put a Little Love on Me
Niall Horan Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
We came down 'cause there was nothin' holdin' us
Is it wrong that I still wonder where you are?
Is it wrong that I still don't know my heart?
Are you all dressed up but with nowhere to go?
Are your tears fallin' down when the lights are low?
Another Friday night tryna put on a show
I've still got so much love hidden beneath this skin
So darlin'
Put a little love on me
Put a little love on me
When the lights come up and there's no shadows dancin'
I look around as my heart is collapsin'
'Cause you're the only one I need
To put a little love on me
We wrote and we wrote 'til there were no more words
We laughed and we cried until we saw our worst
Is it wrong that I still wonder where you are?
Is it wrong that I still don't know my heart?
Are you all dressed up but with nowhere to go?
Are your tears fallin' down when the lights are low?
Another Friday night tryna put on a show
Do you hate the weekend 'cause nobody's callin'?
I've still got so much love hidden beneath this skin
Will someone
Put a little love on me, yeah
Put a little love on me
When the lights come up and there's no shadows dancin'
I look around as my heart is collapsin'
'Cause you're the only one I need
To put a little love on me
Last night I lay awake
Stuck on the things we say
And when I close my eyes
The first thing I hear you say is
Put a little love on me, yeah
Put a little love on me
When the lights come up, we're the only ones dancin'
I look around and you're standin' there askin'
You say, "You're the only one I need
So put your love on me"
You're the only one I need
Put your love on me
The lyrics of Niall Horan's "Put A Little Love On Me" depict a failed relationship that has left both parties feeling lost and empty. The verses describe the aftermath of a break-up, where the couple once fought and got high in each other's company, but now they are left with nothing to hold on to. The singer wonders if it is wrong that he still thinks about his former lover and doesn't know where his heart truly lies. The chorus conveys the message of the song, pleading for love to be bestowed upon the singer in a world where nobody seems to care.
The second verse continues with the same theme of lost love and loneliness. The singer asks if the person he once loved is all dressed up but with nowhere to go and if they cry when the lights are low. The line "Another Friday night tryna put on a show" suggests that they are pretending to be happy and moving on, but a part of them still longs for love. The bridge of the song takes a nostalgic turn, reminiscing about the time the couple spent together writing and laughing until they cried. The song concludes with the two people reconnecting, with the person asking the singer to put his love on them.

I've still got so much love hidden beneath this skin
I am still filled with lots of love but it is kept within me
Put a little love on me
Love me a little, show me some affection
When the lights come up and there's no shadows dancin'

I look around as my heart is collapsin'
My heart is breaking as I glance around
'Cause you're the only one I need
You are the only person I really require
We wrote and we wrote 'til there were no more words
We wrote till we ran out of words to express how we feel
We laughed and we cried until we saw our worst
We laughed together but it ended in tears and sorrow
Will someone
Is there someone out there?
Put a little love on me, yeah
Show me a little affection, please
Last night I lay awake
I stayed awake last night
Stuck on the things we say
Thinking about what we used to say
And when I close my eyes
In the moments when I shut my eyes
The first thing I hear you say is
The first words that I hear you say
When the lights come up, we're the only ones dancin'
When the lights come on, we are the only ones dancing
I look around and you're standin' there askin'
I look around to see you standing there and asking
You say, "You're the only one I need
You say that I am the only one you want
So put your love on me"
Please shower me with your affection
You're the only one I need
You are the only one I require
Put your love on me
Please give me your affection

We fight we get high holding on to love
We came down 'cause there was nothing holding us
Is it wrong that I still wonder where you are
Is it wrong that I still don't know my heart
Are you all dressed up but with nowhere to go
Are your tears falling down when the lights are low
Another Friday night tryna put on a show
Do you hate the weekend
Cos nobody's calling
I've still got so much love hidden beneath this skin
So darling
Put a little love on me
Put a little love on me
When the lights come up and there's no shadows dancing
I look around as my heart is collapsing
Cos you're the only one I need
To put a little love on me
We wrote and we wrote
Til there were no more words
We laughed and we cried
Until we saw our worst
Is it wrong that I still wonder where you are
Is it wrong that I still don't know my heart
Are you all dressed up but with nowhere to go
Are your tears falling down when the lights are low
Another Friday night tryna put on a show
Do you hate the weekend
Cos nobody's calling
I've still got so much love hidden beneath this skin
Will someone
Put a little love on me
Put a little love on me
When the lights come up and there's no shadows dancing
I look around as my heart is collapsing
Cos you're the only one I need
To put a little love on me
Last night I lay awake
Stuck on the things we say
And when I close my eyes the first thing I hear you say is
Put a little love on me
Put a little love on me
When the lights come up we're the only ones dancing
I look around and you're standing there asking
You say, you're the only one I need
So put your love on me
You're the only one I need
Put your love on me
