Let Me In
Olly Murs Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Undo the locks and let me in
I've come seeking my salvation
Of one who's lost in search of it
Of one who's lost in search of it
Let me in and I will save you from the madness
Let me in and I will keep you from the storm
I'll be here to break the fall
Keep that love light in your window
'Til I'll get back home to you
Lift my heart and set my soul free
Tell me love is the only truth
Tell me love is the only truth
Let me in and I will save you from the madness
Let me in and I will keep you from the storm
There is an open book with stories to be told
I'll be here to tell them all
Let me in and we can fill our lives with magic
Let me in and we could keep with each other warm
With every motion, every moment, that we've hold
I'll be here to break the fall
I'm always here to break the fall
In Olly Murs' song "Let Me In", the lyrics seem to be about a lost lover who seeks comfort in the arms of his beloved. The song starts with the persona asking the lover to keep the light on in their window and to unlock the doors for him to come in. This portrays an eagerness to reconnect with the lover and find salvation, especially if the persona is lost and in search of it.
The chorus reiterates the offer of the persona to save the lover from the madness of life and keep them safe from the storms. The words "With every motion, every moment, that we've owned, I'll be here to break the fall" show a sense of dedication and willingness to be there for the lover, no matter what challenges they may face. The persona then asks the lover to keep the love light in their window, indicating a longing to come back to them and be with them forever.
The second chorus introduces the idea of an open book with stories to be told. This could represent the experiences and adventures that the couple will have together, and the persona promises to be there to tell them all. The outro of the song echoes the chorus, reiterating the persona's commitment to being there to break the fall and save the lover from anything that may come their way.
Overall, "Let Me In" is a heartfelt song that emphasizes the importance of love, companionship and dedication to the one you love.
