Love Like That
Nighthowls Lyrics

I don't really think like this
I normally don't contemplate emotions and connections in this manner.

Didn't think you and I would click
I never expected that we would form such a strong and immediate bond.

I know it's hit or miss
I'm aware that relationships can be unpredictable and sometimes fail.

Didn't think I'd fall for you this quick
I was surprised to realize that my feelings for you developed so rapidly.

When I stumbled over
In a moment of awkwardness or uncertainty.

You were sober
You were clear-minded and composed during our interaction.

I was drunk in disbelief
I was overwhelmed and unable to comprehend the situation, perhaps with intoxication amplifying my feelings.

Could you see it
Do you recognize the undeniable connection between us?

You and me we were meant to be
It feels as though our paths are destined to intertwine.

You set me free
You liberated me from my doubts and fears, providing a sense of solace.

You set me free
Your presence has granted me emotional liberation.

I don't even know your god damn name
Despite my growing feelings, I realize I lack basic knowledge about you.

You set me free
Your influence has allowed me to embrace my feelings without reservation.

You set me free
Your energy and spirit have opened my heart.

Even when you see right through me
You seem to perceive my true self, vulnerabilities and all.

Thought I would buy you a drink
I planned a casual gesture to connect with you more deeply.

Thought I could make you believe
I hoped to convince you of my interest and charm.

I was interesting to you
I assumed I held your attention and curiosity.

But we don't even speak enough to justify the time together
Our interactions are minimal, making our time spent seem unearned.

Then you smile right back
Your reciprocated smile reassures me and solidifies our connection.

You set me free
Your smile and presence release me from my insecurities.

You set me free
Each moment with you brings a sense of liberation.

I don't even know your god damn name
I still find it ironic that my feelings run deep, despite my ignorance of who you are.

You set me free
You continuously help me embrace my emotions and let go of my fears.

You set me free
Your spirit uplifts me and unlocks my heart.

Even when you see right through me
Your ability to understand me deeply makes me feel vulnerable yet cherished.

I just want a love like that
All I desire is a connection that feels as genuine and liberating as what we have.

Love like that
A profound and freeing love that we share.

Love like that
Yearning for the kind of bond that transcends superficialities.

I just want a love like that
My heart craves a relationship that feels as authentic and transformative.

Love like that
Dreaming of an emotional connection that offers freedom and joy.

(I think this sounds good
I believe our connection has potential and merits further exploration.

(I think this has potential)
I sense that what we have could develop into something meaningful.

You set me free (you set me)
Your essence continues to liberate me from my inhibitions.

You set me free (you set me)
Again, your influence allows me to embrace my feelings.

I don't even know your god damn name
Despite my deepening emotions for you, I still find myself lacking basic knowledge about you.

(But I think I want to
Yet, I feel compelled to know you more intimately.

(Think I want to)
This desire to understand you on a deeper level continues to grow.

You set me free (you set me)
You are a source of emotional liberation for me.

You set me free (you set me)
Every encounter brings liberation and joy.

Even when you see right through me
You have the ability to perceive my innermost self, making me feel both vulnerable and accepted.
