Bet U Wish
Raye Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I bet you wish that you have kept me
And now you're falling on your front teeth
And I can see your skin a tint of green
Oh you'd wish you wouldn't, no
Oh you'd wish you wouldn't, no
I bet you wish you didn't touch her
See now you're making out you're so hurt
The way you made me feel is much worse
And now you wish you could reverse
And now you wish you could reverse

Oh, you're way too late
And I was on this freaking train
And I saved you a place
You threw it back in my face

Everything is gone
For you I have nothing, absolutely nothing
But I bet you wish, I bet you wish
I bet you wish
I bet you wish, I bet you wish
I bet you wish yeah, it's all gone
Oh you wish we had something, we got nothing
But I bet you wish, I bet you wish
I bet you wish
I bet you wish, I bet you wish
I bet you wish but it's all gone

I think you understand you messed up
But now how dare you even mention love
Love is the last thing that you give to me
And don't you even think to lie
Don't you even think to lie
There are no words that you could ever say
To erase the hurt you send my way
After returning from recovery
I bet you wish that you were mine
Bet you wish that you were mine

Oh, you're way too late
And I was on this freaking train
And I saved you a place
You threw it back in my face

Everything is gone
For you I have nothing, absolutely nothing
But I bet you wish, I bet you wish
I bet you wish
I bet you wish, I bet you wish
I bet you wish yeah, it's all gone
Oh you wish we had something, we got nothing
But I bet you wish, I bet you wish
I bet you wish
I bet you wish, I bet you wish
I bet you wish but it's all gone

For you I have nothing
(for you I got nothing) absolutely nothing
Yeah it's all gone absolutely nothing
But I bet you wish
But I bet you wish, I bet you wish
I bet you wish




I bet you wish, I bet you wish
I bet you wish

Overall Meaning

The song "Bet U Wish" by Raye is about a person who was betrayed by their lover and now the lover regrets their actions. The chorus of the song repeats the line "But I bet you wish" and continues to express how the lover desires to have their ex-partner back but unfortunately, they are too late because the singer has moved on. The lyrics "Everything is gone for you I have nothing, absolutely nothing" teaches a lesson to the lover about how their actions led to the end of the relationship.


The first verse speaks about how the lover wishes they had kept the singer and did not cheat on them as they now see that the singer has moved on with their life. The second verse mocks the lover by revealing how they pretended to be hurt after cheating on the singer and now regrets their actions. The third verse conveys that the lover now understands how they messed up and apologizes for their actions. However, the singer is not willing to forgive them and move on.


Overall, the song is about how people often realize the value of someone only after they have lost them; but by then, it is too late to amend the relationship.

This song was my anthem after getting out of a toxic, abusive narcissistic relationship. It helped me gather the courage to put my abuser in prison. Thanks raye ❤
