## **Lyrics**

**Chorus**

I hear thunder in the distance

And it hits me in an instant

Crashing through my heart and I'm blown apart

You don't love me like that, you don't love me like that

**Verse 1**

I feel the cool wind coming in before the summer rain

Eyes to the sky staring into the blue like it's not gonna end

Remember we needed all our days and nights

To get enough of us to satisfy

We played that out a thousand times

**Chorus**

Now I hear thunder in the distance

And it hits me in an instant

Crashing through my heart and I'm blown apart

You don't love me like that (you don't love me like that)

Yeah, I hear thunder in the distance

And the storm is in our system

I've been shaken out; I can see it now

You don't love me like that (you don't love me like that)

**Verse 2**

I feel the cool wind coming in before the summer rain

Eyes to the sky staring into the blue like it's not gonna end

Remember we had a force like oh, my God

Too fast, too strong, too hard to stop

Remember when we couldn't get enough?

**Chorus**

Now I hear thunder in the distance

And it hits me in an instant

Crashing through my heart and I'm blown apart

You don't love me like that *(you don't love me like that)*

Yeah, I hear thunder in the distance

And the storm is in our system

I've been shaken out; I can see it now

You don't love me like that *(you don't love me like that)*

**Post-Chorus**

No, you don't love me *(no, you don't love me like that, that, that)*

You don't love (you don't love me like that, that)

No, you don't love me like that *(no, you don't love me like that, that, that)*

*(You don't love me like that, that)* You don't love me, you don't love me, baby

*(No, you don't love me like that, that, that)* No, no, no

*(You don't love me like that, that)* No, no, no

*(No, you don't love me like that, that, that)* No, no, oh

*(You don't love me like that, that)*

*(No, you don't love me like that, that, that)*

*(You don't love me like that, that)*

*(No, you don't love me like that, that, that)*

*(You don't love me like that, that)*

**Chorus**

I hear thunder in the distance

And it hits me in an instant

Crashing through my heart and I'm blown apart

You don't love me like that (you don't love me like that)

Yeah, I hear thunder in the distance

And the storm is in our system

I've been shaken out; I can see it now

You don't love me like that, oh (you don't love me)

**Outro**

No, you don't love me like that, that

No, you don't love, no, you don't love

No, you don't love me like that

No, you don't love, no, you don't love

## **Writing and development**

The Knocks is a New York-based music duo consisting of Ben Ruttner and James Patterson. Love Me Like That is a song from their album 55, released in March 2016, featuring Carly Rae Jepsen. The collaboration came about after The Knocks produced a bootleg remix of Jepsen's 2015 song, All That, which caught her attention and saw an official release - "We did a bootleg remix of [Jepsen's] song 'All That' and when she heard it, she liked it so much that she made it an official."

Love Me Like That was recorded in November 2015.  According to The Knocks, it was one of the last songs of the albums to be recorded; "While we were wrapping this album [55], we had an idea for a song that we thought she would sound perfectly on, so we cold called her about collaborating and she was into it. We flew out to LA that week and recorded it together. We are really happy with how it turned out."
