Lead Me On Song Lyrics
[Verse 1: Fletcher]
I was born to love you
You were born wild and free
I was made to find you
But your heart is constantly runnin', just never toward me
[Chorus: Fletcher]
So why don't you just lead me on?
'Cause something is better than nothing at all
Yeah, I want you to lead me on
'Cause something, yeah, something is better than nothing
Something, your something is better than nothing at all
[Verse 2: Fletcher]
It's hard to tame wild horses (It's hard to tame wild horses)
It's hard to stay sound asleep (Sound asleep)
The thought of you is torture (The thought of you is torture)
But your heart is constantly runnin', just never toward me
[Chorus: Fletcher]
So why don't you just lead me on?
'Cause something is better than nothing at all
Yeah, I want you to lead me on
'Cause something, yeah, something is better than nothing
Yeah, something, your something is better than nothing at all
[Post-Chorus: Fletcher]
Nothing at all
Nothing at all
Nothing at all
[Bridge: Fletcher]
So why don't just lead me on?
'Cause something is better than nothing at all, at all, at all
[Chorus: Fletcher]
So why don't you just lead me on?
'Cause something, yeah, something is better than nothing
Your something, your something is better than nothing
Your something, your something is better than nothing
Just a little something, just something is better than nothing at all
Lead Me On Lyrics Explained
The lyrics of "Lead Me On" by Fletcher delves into the complexities of unrequited love and longing for someone who seems perpetually out of reach. It expresses the desire for even a fleeting connection over nothing at all. Through vivid imagery of wild horses and the struggle to tame them, the lyrics convey the difficulty of controlling emotions and desires when faced with the unpredictable nature of love.
[Verse 1]
In this opening verse, the singer expresses a deep sense of destiny and longing. They feel as though they were meant to find and love the other person, who is depicted as wild and free-spirited. Despite this sense of purpose, the object of their affection remains elusive, their heart constantly wandering away. This sets the stage for the theme of unreciprocated love and the desire for even a semblance of connection.
[Chorus]
The chorus highlights the central theme of the song: the longing for any form of connection, even if it's leading someone on or settling for less than ideal. The singer acknowledges that while it may not be perfect, having something is better than having nothing at all. This sentiment reflects the desperation and willingness to endure emotional pain for the sake of feeling some connection to the person they desire.
[Verse 2]
In the second verse, the struggle becomes more evident as the singer compares their attempts to win over their love interest to taming wild horses. It's a difficult and seemingly impossible task, mirroring the challenge of trying to win the affections of someone who is emotionally distant or unavailable. Despite the torment caused by their unrequited feelings, the singer finds it hard to let go and continues to yearn for the object of their affection.
[Post-Chorus]
The post-chorus reinforces the idea that even a small amount of affection or attention from the person they desire is better than nothing. It's a plea for any form of acknowledgment or validation, no matter how fleeting or insincere it may be. This repetition of "Nothing at all" emphasizes the emptiness and loneliness that comes from being ignored or rejected by the person they love.
[Bridge]
In the bridge, the singer directly addresses their desire for the other person to lead them on, despite knowing that it may not be genuine. They acknowledge that even if it's just a temporary illusion of love or affection, it's preferable to the crushing emptiness of being ignored or rejected. This further highlights the theme of longing and desperation for any form of connection, no matter how fleeting or superficial.
