I Wish You Love
Ray Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
But a fool can have her charms
I'm in love and don't I show it
Like a babe in arms
Love's the same old situation
Lately I've not slept a wink
Since this crazy situation
I'm wild again, beguiled again
A whimpering, simpering child again
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered, am I
Couldn't sleep, wouldn't sleep
Love came and told me, shouldn't sleep
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered, am I
I lost my heart, but what of it
She is cold I agree
She might laugh, but I love it
Although the laugh's on me
I'll sing to her, bring spring to her
And long, for the day when I'll cling to her
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered, am I
The lyrics to "I Didn't Mean To Love You" by Ray-an Fuentes portrays the classic struggle of a person falling in love despite knowing that they shouldn't. Singing, "She's a fool and don't I know it, But a fool can have her charms," the singer recognizes the susceptibility of the person he is falling for but is powerless against his feelings. He goes on to say, "Love's the same old situation, Lately I've not slept a wink, Since this crazy situation Has me on the blink," which describes the timeless nature of falling in love and how it keeps people up at night with excitement and anxiousness.
The lines "I'm wild again, beguiled again A whimpering, simpering child again Bewitched, bothered and bewildered, am I" showcase how falling in love can make even the most mature individuals feel like a helpless child. The lyrics suggest that love has left the singer feeling bewitched, bothered, and bewildered, indicating that he is unable to think straight or function as he would usually.
Overall, Ray-an Fuentes's "I Didn't Mean To Love You" is a song that speaks about the universal experience of falling in love and feeling powerless against it.

She's a fool and don't I know it
I am aware of her foolishness
But a fool can have her charms
Despite being foolish, she still has attractive qualities
I'm in love and don't I show it
I am deeply in love and exhibit it openly
Like a babe in arms
I feel vulnerable and defenseless like a baby
Love's the same old situation
Love is a recurring occurrence
Lately I've not slept a wink
I have been unable to sleep in recent times
Since this crazy situation
Due to this intense romantic involvement
Has me on the blink
It has affected my wellbeing
I'm wild again, beguiled again
I am feeling intense emotions and captivated again
A whimpering, simpering child again
I am feeling powerless and childish again
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered, am I
I am completely consumed, troubled, and bewildered by love
Couldn't sleep, wouldn't sleep
I was unable and unwilling to sleep
Love came and told me, shouldn't sleep
Love urged me not to sleep
I lost my heart, but what of it
I gave my heart to her, regardless of the consequences
She is cold I agree
I acknowledge that she is emotionally distant
She might laugh, but I love it
I am enamored with even her laughter
Although the laugh's on me
However, I am the one being fooled and ridiculed
I'll sing to her, bring spring to her
I'll serenade her and bring joy and happiness to her
And long, for the day when I'll cling to her
I yearn to be close to her and hold her tight
Bewitched, bothered and bewildered, am I
I am completely consumed, troubled, and bewildered by love
