"Love Like You" lyrics

"Love Like You"
(from "Steven Universe Soundtrack: Volume 1" soundtrack)

If I could begin to be
Half of what you think of me
I could do about anything
I could even learn how to love

When I see the way you act
Wondering when I'm coming back
I could do about anything
I could even learn how to love like you
(Love like you)

I always thought I might be bad
Now I'm sure that it's true
'Cause I think you're so good
And I'm nothing like you

Look at you go
I just adore you
I wish that I knew
What makes you think I'm so special

If I could begin to do
Something that does right by you
I would do about anything
I would even learn how to love

When I see the way you look
Shaken by how long it took
I could do about anything
I could even learn how to love like you

Love like you
Love me like you

Originally, "Love Like You" was the ending theme to Steven Universe's second season, but new verses were added afterwards and the song was kind of finished for the finale of the third season.
The complete version of this song was first performed by Aivi and Surasshu at Animation On Display (AOD) 2016.
Rebecca Sugar told in an interview with Dara Driscoll on 07/26/2017 ""Love Like You" is so unusual. Um, it started as a song from the point of view of, sort of, all gems. Um, and just sort of a thesis of the entire show kind of towards Steven. But also, kind of me towards my own brother, Steven." The song was written over a course of three years.
