Love Like This Lyrics

Day by day
Is cold enough I guess
Hard to escape
My head is such a mess
And when I'm stoned
I lay around and think
"Why me?"
When clearly
It's meant to be

Because it takes a love like this
(I want you here, I need you now)
Blood on my hands with every kiss
(Believe in me, I won't back down)

I got my dreams up ahead
So why push hard to exist?
On the road once again
But I still miss the feel of your lips
on my skin

Because it takes a love like this
(I want you here, I need you now)
Blood on my hands with every kiss
(Believe in me, I won't back down)

'Cause I need you
Please excuse my hesitation around you
I've never felt this way before

Because it takes a love like this
(I want you, I need you now)
Blood on my hands with every kiss
(Believe in me, I won't back down)

Because it takes a love like this
(I want you, I need you now)
Blood on my hands with every kiss
(Believe me, I won't back down)

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.

It seems to be about someone who doesn't have much self-worth. They've fallen in love, but maybe don't give themselves fully to it, or question it - the why me - even though it's clear the two are supposed to be together. And maybe they fear hurting the person they're in love with (blood on my hands with every kiss) or think hurt is inevitable. So they're hesitant. But the love is definitely real. Speaking from experience - I hope people who feel this way know that pulling away hurts just as much if not more than hurt that might come from staying. Hurt from absence at this point is guaranteed, hurt from presence - who knows, it's uncertain. But you gotta work through your demons to be able to embrace the fact that our presence can be a gift to others.
