[Intro]
We used to be lovin', touchin', kissin', f-
Like our lives depend on it
How we did get to lyin', cryin', always fightin'
Like our lives depend on it

[Verse 1]
Oh, there you go, putting words in my mouth
It's 'bout to go down
I'm not ready yet, there's still a thread left
If I could just hold on onto unraveling hope
Give it one last go, I don't know why, just need us to try

[Pre-Chorus]
Do or don't we find a way to get back
That thing we used to have that
Ooh, I need you now

[Chorus]
We used to be lovin', touchin', kissin', f-
Like our lives depend on it
How we did get to lyin', cryin', always fightin'
Like our lives depend on it
Why you lookin' at me with angry eyes
How we ever gon' make it out alive
If we don't get back to lovin', touchin', kissin', f-
Like our lives depend on it

[Verse 2]
How could I know, what you had hiding there
Behind those fire eyes, but I'll make it worse with my wild words

[Pre-Chorus]
And ooh, I've done it now

[Chorus]
We used to be lovin', touchin', kissin', f-
Like our lives depend on it
How we did get to lyin', cryin', always fightin'
Like our lives depend on it
Why you lookin' at me with angry eyes
How we ever gon' make it out alive
If we don't get back to lovin', touchin', kissin', f-
Like our lives depend on it

[Outro]
Why you lookin' at me with angry eyes
How we ever gon' make it out alive
If we don't get back to lovin', touchin', squeezin' then f-
Like our lives depend on it

Liam James Payne is an English R&B-pop singer-songwriter. He made his debut as a singer when he auditioned as a solo artist for the British television series The X Factor in 2008. He reauditioned as a solo artist in 2010, where he was put into a group along with four other contestants, to form the boy band that would later become known as One Direction.

Since joining One Direction, Payne, along with bandmates Niall Horan, Louis Tomlinson, Harry Styles and former bandmate Zayn Malik, have released five commercially successful albums, performed on four worldwide tours, and won multiple awards, including several BRIT Awards and four MTV Video Music Awards. He has worked independently under the monikers “Big Payno” and “Payno”, creating remixes for songs such as British pop singer Cheryl’s single “I Don’t Care”.

When One Direction first announced their hiatus in 2016, Liam said that he would stay in the music, but not go into a solo singing career. On May 10, 2017, Liam announced the release of his debut single “Strip That Down”. It became one of the biggest-selling debuts of all time, one of the most streamed songs of Summer 2017, making it the biggest selling song by any member from One Direction at the time.
