Ledisi – Like This Lyrics

Don’t want to be with you, you singing some one else’s song¹
and all the stuff you did before, before I came along
I’m not the one, we can’t be one like this²
I want to love you but I need us to be thinking the same
and all the stuff you holding on to baby I’m not to blame³
I want to love, I want to love you like this

I want the best for us, I want us to win
I can’t keep this up, being like this⁴

I can’t love you like this, can’t hold you like this
When we argue like this, why we do this?⁵
I can’t love you like this, why we going through this?
All this uncomfortableness…

Why we going through these changes?
This is so messed up
Do you remember what I told you when we first hooked up?
I want to love you, I want to love you like this⁶
You had me thinking I was wrong for you, you know I’m right
You know how good my loving is because you said last night,
I want to love you, I want to love you like this⁷

I want the best for us, I want us to win
I can’t keep this up, being like this

I can’t love you like this, can’t hold you like this
When we argue like this, why we do this?
I can’t love you like this, why we going through this?
All this uncomfortableness…

Why we keep going the wrong direction?
I just want to give you love and affection⁸
soft words kisses day and night, if you let me
Imma love you till the morning light⁹
All I want to do is love you like this,
we don’t need to be going through this
OHHH I want to love ya, love ya¹⁰

I get tired of arguing with you baby, just want to love you baby
Aye I give you everything you ask for from me, why can’t we just be together baby…
Aye just want to love you,
Aye just want to be there for you baby,
love you baby be there for you baby
Aye just want to love you like this…¹¹
