Title: “The Way I Love You”
Verse 1
I memorized the freckles on your skin
Like constellations I could rearrange
You say you need your space to breathe
I just move closer, call it fate
I trace your thoughts before you speak
I know you better than you do
If you forget just who you are
I’ll be the one who tells you who
Pre-Chorus
You call it “losing yourself”
I call it being found
Your world was way too loud before
I’m the only quiet sound
Hook / Chorus
(first “I love you” — soft, warm, intimate)
I love you…
(second “love” — lower pitch, darker, almost a warning)
…love you.
You don’t need the world outside
It never held you like I do
Every door you try to open
Leads you back into my room
(soft again)
I love you…
(deep, possessive tone)
…love you.
If love means never letting go
Then no one loves you like I do
Verse 2
I saved you from your lonely nights
By making sure you’re never alone
Your friends just fill your head with doubt
I fill your lungs, I’m closer than home
You say my touch is getting tight
I say you’re finally feeling safe
Why would you want a life before
When I can be your only place?
Pre-Chorus
You call it “too much to handle”
I call it meant to be
You’re scared of how deep this goes
But you’re already part of me
Hook / Chorus
(same vocal contrast as before)
I love you…
…love you.
You don’t need the world outside
It never held you like I do
Every door you try to open
Leads you back into my room
I love you…
…love you.
If love means never letting go
Then no one loves you like I do
Bridge (more eerie, almost calm and honest)
If you run, I’ll call it chasing
If you cry, I’ll call it care
If you leave, I’ll say you’re breaking
All the love we “used” to share
I don’t hurt you, I just hold you
Till there’s nothing left to lose
You say love is setting free…
That’s just not the way I love you
Final Hook (quiet → intense)
(barely a whisper)
I love you…
(deep, close to the mic, chilling)
…love you.
Now there’s nowhere left to go
Where my arms can’t reach you too
You can say you’re suffocating
That just proves my love is true
I love you…
…love you.
If love means you belong to me
Then no one loves you like I do
