"Let Me Love You" is a song recorded by American singer Ariana Grande, featuring American rapper Lil Wayne from her third studio album Dangerous Woman (2016). It was written by Thomas Brown, Victoria McCants, Steven Franks, Grande and Wayne, with production being done by Franks and Brown, the latter under the name TB Hits. The song was released as the second promotional single from the album on April 18, 2016. A slow-paced, sultry R&B track, "Let Me Love You" features delicate piano chords, electro-beats, smooth, deep bass, trap-lite, hip-hop beats, and interspersed vocals. Lyrically, the song talks about getting over an ex and laying on the chest of someone new.

A music video for the song, directed by Grant Singer, was released on May 16, 2016. For the first week, the music video was available to watch exclusively on Apple Music. It shows Grande in various intimate settings and Wayne appears as well. The music video spawned a nomination for Best Collaboration Video at the 2016 MTV Video Music Awards.

"Let Me Love You" was the first song Grande recorded for the album, which initially was called "Moonlight". It was written and recorded in late 2014, as stated by Grande during an interview with Ryan Seacrest. Later, on March 11, 2016, Grande revealed the title of four tracks from the track list of Dangerous Woman, with one being "Let Me Love You", which was said to have American rapper Lil Wayne as a featured guest. Wayne had previously rapped about Grande on his track "London Roads" off his album Free Weezy Album (2015). Ten days later, Grande teased a snippet of the track through her Snapchat account. She also stated that it was one of her favorite verses of his ever and that they felt like "old school Lil Wayne." On April 18, 2016, "Let Me Love You" was released as the album's second promotional single from the album.
