The song "If He Wanted To He Would" by Johnny Orlando tells the story of a person who is in love with someone who is not treating them with respect or giving them the attention they deserve. The lyrics emphasize the idea that if the person truly cared, they would make an effort to show it. The song starts by describing the protagonist as someone who wears their heart on their sleeve, making their emotions visible to everyone. However, it becomes clear that their love interest does not reciprocate these feelings. The protagonist has been hurt and deceived many times by this person. The lyrics point out that the love interest frequently disappears for hours, showing a lack of commitment. They also never buy the protagonist flowers, indicating a lack of effort in the relationship. It is implied that the love interest is not someone who will make an effort to show their love or make the protagonist feel special. The chorus suggests a shift in the narrative as the protagonist finds someone new (possibly the singer themselves) who treats them much better. The new person shows them the love and attention they deserve, making them feel valued. The chorus states that if the previous love interest wanted to treat the protagonist well, they would have done so, but thankfully they didn't because it allowed the protagonist to find someone better. The lyrics continue to emphasize the positive qualities of the new love interest. They spend time in a black Corvette, symbolizing a new exciting chapter in their lives. The protagonist loves brunettes, and this person fits that description. They are described as a fire sign, indicating passion and intensity. The protagonist appreciates their honesty and outspokenness. The song conveys the message that it's important to recognize when someone is not treating you right and that there is someone better out there who will appreciate and value you. The protagonist has moved on from their previous love interest and found happiness with someone new. Overall, "If He Wanted To He Would" is a story of personal growth and finding love that is genuine and fulfilling.
