Let Me Love You
The Baseballs Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Baby I just don't get it
Do you enjoy being hurt?
I know you smelled the perfume, the make-up on his shirt
You don't believe his stories
You know that they're all lies
Mad as you are, you stick around and I just don't know why

If I was ya man (baby you)
Never worry bout (what I do)
I'd be coming home (back to you)
Every night, doin' you right
You're the type of woman (deserves good things)
Fistful of diamonds (hand full of rings)
Baby you're a star (I just want to show you, you are)

You should let me love you
Let me be the one to give you everything you want and need
Baby good love and protection
Make me your selection
Show you the way love's supposed to be
Baby you should let me love you, love you, love you

Your true beauty's description looks so good that it hurts
You're a dime plus ninety-nine and it's a shame
Don't even know what you're worth
Everywhere you go they stop and stare
Cause you're bad and it shows
From your head to your toes, Out of control, baby you know

If I was ya man (baby you)
Never worry bout (what I do)
I'd be coming home (back to you)
Every night doin' you right
You're the type of woman (deserves good things)
Fistful of diamonds (hand full of rings)
Baby you're a star (I just want to show you, you are)

You should let me love you
Let me be the one to give you everything you want and need
Baby good love and protection
Make me your selection
Show you the way love's supposed to be
Baby you should let me love you, love you, love you

You deserve better girl
We should be together girl
With us and you it's whatever girl
You deserve better girl
We should be together girl
With us and you it's whatever girl
So can we make this thing ours?

You should let me love you
Let me be the one to give you everything you want and need
Baby good love and protection
Make me your selection
Show you the way love's supposed to be
Baby you should let me love you, love you, love you

You should let me love you
Let me be the one to give you everything you want and need
Baby good love and protection
Make me your selection




Show you the way love's supposed to be
Baby you should let me love you, love you, love you

Overall Meaning

The song "Let Me Love You" by The Baseballs seems to be a plea from the singer to a woman he desires. The beginning of the song is contemplative, with the singer trying to understand why the woman he wants continues to stay with someone else who hurts her. He acknowledges the perfume and makeup on the other man's shirt and his lies. He tells the woman she deserves someone who treats her well and gives her the love and protection she needs. The chorus of the song is the singer asking the woman to give him a chance to be that someone.


In the second verse, the singer praises the woman's beauty and expresses that she doesn't know her own worth. He notes the attention that she gets from men but feels that she deserves someone who appreciates her for more than her looks. He reiterates his willingness to give her everything she needs and protect her. The song ends with a hopeful tone, with the singer asking the woman if they can make their relationship official.


Overall, the song can be interpreted as a message of empowerment to women who may not realize their own worth or may have accepted mistreatment from others. The singer affirms the woman's beauty and value and offers himself as a worthy partner who will treat her right.
