Love Like This
Natasha Bedingfield Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Talk to me baby
Oh?
Never find a love like this
Oh?
Hey, let's go!
Never find a love like this

We go back so far
Swinging in your back yard
All the things that we used to do
We were cool back in high school
Oh I really liked you
Must have been your attitude

That's why you keep on running
In and out of my mind
As the years they'll roll by
Baby, now I know why
I keep coming back to you
You're the only one that knows me
Love it when you hold me
Never find a love like this
Let me hear you say
Now I'll never be lonely
Look at what you've shown me
Never find a love like this

Well this life tried to keep us apart
You keep calling me back to your heart
Let me hear you say
I'm so glad you found me
Wrap your world around me
Never find a love like this

All the guys tried to take me
You're the one who saved me
I feel like I owe you my life
And as strange as it may seem
I'll go if you take me
I'm willing to sacrifice

That's why you keep on running
In and out of my mind
As the years they'll roll by
Baby, now I know why
I keep coming back to you
You're the only one that knows me
Love it when you hold me
Never find a love like this
Let me hear you say
Now I'll never be lonely
Look at what you've shown me
Never find a love like this

'Cause this life tried to keep us apart
You keep calling me back to your hear
Let me hear you say
I'm so glad you found me
Wrap you all around me
Never find a love like this

May never find a love, love, love a love like this
That still make me think about my middle school kiss
I sit here in this chair and I wish
For you not to leave me now
My friends they always told me
Not to make you my wifey
Man they was putting you down
And now they see we rolling
Me and you, we strolling
They don't wanna come around

Let me hear you say
You're the only one that knows me
Love it when you hold me
Never find a love like this
Let me hear you say
Now I'll never be lonely
Look at what you've shown me
Never find a love like this

When this life tries to keep us apart
You keep calling me back to your heart
Let me hear you say
I'm so glad you found me
Wrap you all around me
Never find a love like this

Oh, never find a love like this
Oh, never find a love like this
Oh, never find a love like this
Oh, never find a love like this
Now I'll never be lonely
Look at what you've show me
Never find a love like this

Oh, never find a love like this?
When this life tried to keep us apart
You keep calling me back to your heart
Let me hear you say




Oh, never find a love like this
Oh, never find a love like this

I was in my twenties when Natasha Bedingfield came on the scene, and she made my twenties feel joyful and hopeful. Her beautiful love songs and her songs of optimism helped to keep me encouraged that life is beautiful. She really was underappreciated, i have to wonder if its because she wasn't a popstar who was trashy. Her voice was ten times better than many of her time. Thanks for the memories.โค

I was 15 years old when this song came out I never heard anything about Natasha Bedingfield

@PaoAsmrVLOG

Itโ€™s 2023 this song is not getting old I never get tired to play even for how many years or decade will passed such a great masterpiece during my childhood days โค

@perlaperezgutierrez4761

Yes!

@malhap5061

Yeah bro we here 1 day off 2024

@heatherpierce9123

Such a timeless classic. I miss these fun, carefree pop songs like this one that were popular in the 90's/00's that still sound great & fresh today. Sean Kingston & Natasha Bedingfield were both great artists that came out with some hits, then seemed to fall off the map. Either way, I appreciate the memories these songs bring! Now everything is so sex/violence/drug obsessed in today's music. This was just a sweet, innocent song about a crush/first love.โค๏ธ
