I Let Him Get to Me Lyrics

My friends ask me why I look so down
How come they haven't seen me around town

Cause I let him get to me but he don't let me get to him
I let him get to me, he don't let me get to him
I let him get to me but he don't let me get to him
I let him get to me, he don't let me get to him

I see him walking around so cool
And I feel like such a fool

'Cause I let him get to me but he don't let me get to him
I let him get to me, he don't let me get to him
I let him get to me but he don't let me get to him
I let him get to me, he don't let me get to him

I think about why I feel this way
I think about it most every day
I try to change the way I feel about you
but when I try I see that I'm not being true

'Cause I let him get to me but he don't let me get to him
I let him get to me but he don't let me get to him
I let him get to me but he don't let me get to him
I let him get to me he don't let me get to him

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.
