Glee Cast Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Santana:
It's been said and done
Every beautiful thought's been already sung
And I guess right now here's another one
So your melody will play on and on
With the best of 'em

You are beautiful
Like a dream come alive, incredible
A sinful miracle, lyrical
You've saved my life again
And I want you to know, baby

I, I love you like a love song, baby
I, I love you like a love song, baby
I, I love you like a love song, baby
And I keep hitting re-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat
I, I love you like a love song, baby
I, I love you like a love song, baby
I, I love you like a love song, baby
And I keep hitting re-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat

Constantly
Girl, you played through my mind like a symphony
There's no way to describe what you do to me
You just do to me what you do

And it feels like I've been rescued (Rescued)
I've been set free (Set free)
I am hypnotized (Hypnotized)
By your destiny (Destiny)
You are magical, lyrical, beautiful
You are... (Are...)
And I want you to know baby (I want you to know)

I, I love you like a love song, baby
I, I love you like a love song, baby
I, I love you like a love song, baby
And I keep hitting re-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat
I, I love you like a love song, baby
I, I love you like a love song, baby
I, I love you (I love you) like a love song, baby (I love you)
And I keep hitting re-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat (Like a love song)

No one compares
You stand alone
To every record I own
Music to my heart
That's what you are
A song that goes on and on...

Tina & Brittany (Santana):
I, I love you like a love song, baby (Ohh, I...)
I, I love you like a love song, baby (I love you)
I, I love you like a love song, baby (I love you like a love song)
And I keep hitting re-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat (Like a love song)
I, I love you like a love song, baby (I love you like a love song, baby)
I, I love you like a love song, baby (Like a love song, baby)




I, I love you like a love song, baby (Yeah, yeah...)
And I keep hitting re-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat-peat (Like a love song)

My profile pic is my dog he's awesome

The reason I like this version better is because of the back up vocals. They just complete the song. Especially when Santana sings " And it feels like I've been rescued, I've been set free, I am hypnotized by your destiny."
