Rita Ora Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Instead of going out to find trouble
That's just trouble (mmm)
I think I run away sometimes
Whenever I get too vulnerable
That's not your fault (yeah)
See, I wanna stay the whole night
I wanna let you inside
Oh, Heaven knows I've tried
I wish that I could let you love
Wish that I could let you love me
I wish that I could let you love
Wish that I could let you love me
Say what's the matter, what's the matter with me?
What's the matter with me?
Oh, I wish that I could let you love
Wish that I could let you love me now
I wish, oh, I wish, oh, I wish, oh, I wish, I
I wish, oh, I wish, oh, I wish, oh, I wish, I
And every time it gets too real
And every time I feel us sabotaging
I start running (yeah, eh)
And every time I push away
I really wanna say that I'm sorry (yeah)
But I say nothing (yeah)
I wanna stay the whole night
I wanna lay with you 'til the sun's up
I wanna let you inside
Oh, Heaven knows I've tried
I wish that I could let you love
Wish that I could let you love me
I wish that I could let you love
Wish that I could let you love me
Say what's the matter, what's the matter with me?
What's the matter with me?
Oh, I wish that I could let you love
Wish that I could let you love me now
I wish, oh, I wish, oh, I wish, oh, I wish, I
I wish, oh, I wish, oh, I wish, oh, I wish, I
I wanna stay with you 'til the morning
I wanna lay with you through the sunrise
I wanna show you that you're my only
(I wanna lay with you 'til the sun's up)
I wanna stay with you 'til the morning
I wanna lay with you through the sunrise, through the sunrise
Oh-oh-oh-oh, Heaven knows I've tried
I wish that I could let you love
Wish that I could let you love me
I wish that I could let you love
Wish that I could let you love me
Say what's the matter, what's the matter with me?
What's the matter with me?
Oh, I wish that I could let you love
Wish that I could let you love me
Say what's the matter, what's the matter with me?
What's the matter with me?
Oh, I wish that I could let you love
Wish that I could let you love me now
I wish, oh, I wish, oh, I wish, oh, I wish, I

In the song "Let You Love Me," Rita Ora discusses her fear of emotional vulnerability and how this has prevented her from fully committing to a relationship. The lyrics suggest that she has a tendency to sabotage her own happiness by running away when she feels too exposed. She acknowledges that this behavior is not fair to her partner, but she struggles to let her guard down and allow herself to be loved. She wishes that she could overcome her fear and be more open to the idea of falling in love.
The chorus of the song repeats the phrase "I wish that I could let you love me" several times, emphasizing the central theme of the song. Ora's powerful vocals and the emotive instrumentation create a sense of yearning and longing throughout the track, reflecting the singer's desire to overcome her emotional barriers.
Overall, "Let You Love Me" is an introspective ballad that explores the complexities of love and fear. It is a poignant reminder of how difficult it can be to let our guards down and allow ourselves to be vulnerable in relationships.
