Let Me Down lyrics

[Verse 1: Jorja Smith]

Sometimes, I wouldn't mind if I was less important

Would you think about them all the time?

Wonder if you'll even notice in the morning

So where'd you go when you can't get to me

And you just can't control?

Sometimes, I wouldn't mind if I was less important

[Chorus 1: Jorja Smith]

But I've got you to let me down

I've got you to let me down

Only you can understand why

I've got you to let me down

[Verse 2: Stormzy]

Yeah, yo, it's like

You've got me, I'm pondering that

Said, "I'll be back in a sec, I need to reflect"

But you swear it's been longer than that

Time is golden, time is thin

But time is rare, so we squander and that

I feel your pain when I hear your voice

So fix your tone, man, you're stronger than that

And you're, like, the strongest girl I know

Probably the strongest, minus my mum

Don't go wasting your loving on me

When I see tears run, I'm likely to run

So girl, don't love me, I mean it

When I say I love you, I mean it

And it's mad cuh I choose to be distant

But it's fucked cuh I know what a queen is

So why do I?

[Chorus 2: Jorja Smith & Stormzy]

But I've got you to let me down

Why do you let me down? Why do you let me down, down, down?

I've got you to let me down

Sometimes, your world spins 'round

But you never had a king 'til now

Only you can understand why

Yeah, girl, do you understand

Why these feelings never come to plan?

I've got you to let me down

I'm never gonna let you down, I'm never gonna let you down

[Bridge: Jorja Smith]

Yeah, I tried, but I just can't give you up

Wonder why is it that I'm not good enough?

Some kind of hold over me

[Chorus 3: Jorja Smith & Stormzy]

I've got you to let me down

I've got you, you've got me, I've got you

But I've got you to let me down

If I let you down, will you self-destruct?

Only you, only you can understand why

Only you can understand

That I've got you to let me down
