Love Like This Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh, I love it when you show, when you show
When you show that you got my back
If they ever try to roll, try to roll
Try to roll on your name, I black
How you hit 'em with the clothes and the stare
And the hips and the hair like that
Got me all up in the zone, in the zone
In the zone, in the zone like

[Pre-Chorus]
I don't wanna waste no time
I don't wanna waste no time 'cause
You are the, you are the crown
I just wanna take your time and
Everything is on the line, but I would rather be dead
If it's gonna mean a life that's lived without you, baby

[Chorus]
I guess that's love like this
Usually, I never wanna jump like this
But I think I wanna dump my chips 'cause
I cannot go back

I guess that's faith like this
Give you everything and you can skate like this (Woo)
But I think I gotta take that risk 'cause
I cannot go back

[Verse 2]
And I'm lovin' what you say, what you say
What you say when you're on my line
If I never make it back, make it back
Make it back from the chase, I'm fine
Doesn't matter if it's left or it's right
Your direction is on my mind

Got me all up in the zone, in the zone
In the zone, in the zone like

[Pre-Chorus]
I don't wanna waste no time
I don't wanna waste no time 'cause
You are the, you are the crown
I just wanna take your time and
Everything is on the line, but I would rather be dead
If it's gonna mean a life that's lived without you, baby


[Chorus]
I guess that's love like this
Usually, I never wanna jump like this
But I think I wanna dump my chips 'cause
I cannot go back

I guess that's faith like this
Give you everything and you can skate like this (Woo)
But I think I gotta take that risk 'cause
I cannot go back

[Post-Chorus]
One kiss, I am wrapped
Two, four, six, my jack
All I know is that
I cannot go back
One kiss, I am wrapped
Two and I'm attached
All I know is that
I cannot go back

[Bridge]
I don't wanna waste no time
You are the cr—, you are the crown
Everything is on the line, but I would rather be dead
If it's gonna mean a life that is lived without you, baby

[Chorus]
I guess that's love like this
Usually, I never wanna jump like this
But I think I wanna dump my chips 'cause
I cannot go back

I guess that's faith like this
Give you everything and you can skate like this
But I think I gotta take that risk 'cause
I cannot go back

[Outro]
I can't let go of you, baby
I cannot go back
But I think I gotta take that risk 'cause
I cannot go back

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

“Love Like This” is ZAYN’s return to the music scene after not releasing original material since his album Nobody Is Listening and his duet with Ingrid Michaelson, “To Begin Again,” both dropped in 2021. It also marks the singer’s first release under Mercury Records after separating ways from RCA Records in October 2021 amids the singer’s split with Gigi Hadid and legal battle issues involving Gigi’s mother, Yolanda Hadid.

Departing from the R&B sound of his last project, “Love Like This” embraces an upbeat UK Pop and Garage sound, with the theme revolving around entering a new commited and supportive relationship without worrying about the risks.

In anticipation to the song’s release, ZAYN made an appearance on the “Call Her Daddy” podcast, in which he described the song as:

A standalone song. It’s just a summer jam. It’s a good vibe. It just feels like summer."

A first preview of this new era was revealed through his Instagram in the last week of June, 2023, followed by a series of teasers throughout the week and the single announcement on July 14, 2023.
