But, as I listened to it a couple of times, the lyrics didn\u2019t highlight a one-sided love affair as people thought it is. There are two sides to this song. It tells a story of a man struggling to show how intense and fired up his emotions are until he finally realized how incredibly unfounded he is but hesitates to show how he feels because of the disbelief that he can be loved despite his imperfections.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>How long will I give to you?<br>As long as I live through you<br>However long you say<\/p><cite><a class=\"rank-math-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.lyreka.com\/song\/ellie-goulding-how-long-will-i-love-you-lyrics\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">How Long Will I Love You Lyrics<\/a><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>The other side of the story showcases a passionately loved woman who is confused about the relationship she is in. She slowly embraces his mans\u2019 flaws making his mediocre life perfectly romanticized. What she doesn&#8217;t understand is the shift of emotions from warm to cold and her submission being his strength, making her wanting something she knows he cannot give.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>How long will I love you?<br>As long as stars are above you<br>And longer if I may<\/p><cite><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lyreka.com\/song\/ellie-goulding-how-long-will-i-love-you-lyrics\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\">How Long Will I Love You Lyrics<\/a><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p>When you listen to the Chorus, you will see how she is trying to break or surpass a wall he has built for her and the others before her as a way to love him fully, which makes her want to change him.<\/p>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>From the movie, Fifty Shades of Grey who first introduced BDSM on the limelight comes Love Me Like You Do by Ellie Goulding.&nbsp;Written by Swedish singer Tove Lo, Savan Kotecha, and Ilya Salmanzadeh and produced by Taylor Swift and Ali Payami.&nbsp;This song is the fastest-selling single which debuted at number&#8230; <a class=\"more-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.lyreka.com\/blog\/hopeful-desires-when-you-love-me-like-you-do\">Read More<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":861,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[4],"tags":[131,86,134,130,133,29,132],"class_list":["post-584","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-song-analysis","tag-ellie-goulding","tag-fifty-shades-of-grey","tag-ilya-salmanzadeh","tag-love-me-like-you-do","tag-savan-kotecha","tag-taylor-swift","tag-tove-lo"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lyreka.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/584","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lyreka.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lyreka.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lyreka.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lyreka.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=584"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.lyreka.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/584\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lyreka.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/861"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.lyreka.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=584"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lyreka.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=584"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.lyreka.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=584"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
