Zayn Malik has already proven that his One Direction days are behind him and his new video for “Like I would” continues to do just that.
The dance-r&b track, which was performed for the very first time on Live on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon last March, is the second single taken from Zayn’s debut album “Mind of mine”.
The futuristic video is inspired by 1982 sci-fi movie “Tron” and was produced by Luti Fagbenle, who worked with Zayn when he was in One Direction.
“Mind of mine” was released earlier this year (March 25) and went to Number One in both the UK and US making the singer one of just 25 artists in history to have a song (“Pillowtalk”) and a debut album at Number One on the US Billbaord Hot 100.
Lyrics:
Hey, what’s up? It’s been a while
Talking ’bout it’s not my style
Thought I’d see what’s up
While I’m lighting up
It’s cold-hearted, cold-hearted
Know it’s late but I’m so wired
Saw your face and got inspired
Guess you let it go, now you’re good to go
It’s cold-hearted, cold-hearted
Oh, oh
It’s probably gonna sound wrong
Promise it won’t last long
Oh, oh
If we can never go back
Thought you’d like to know that
He won’t touch you like I do
He won’t love you like I would
He don’t know your body
He don’t do you right
He won’t love you like I would
Love you like I would
It’s okay to want me, ’cause I want you
Been thinkin’ it over, but I’m through
So stop wasting all my time, messing with my mind
It’s cold-hearted, cold-hearted
Oh, oh
It’s probably gonna sound wrong
Promise it won’t last long
Oh, oh
If we can never go back
Thought you’d like to know that
[2x]
He won’t touch you like I do
He won’t love you like I would
He don’t know your body
He don’t do you right
He won’t love you like I would
Love you like I would, like I would
He can’t love you like I would
He can’t love you like I could
He don’t know your body
He don’t know your body
He, won’t touch you like I do
He, won’t love you like I would
He don’t know your body
He don’t do you right
He won’t love you like I would
Love you like I would
Like I would
He can’t touch you like I would
Won’t touch you like I do
He can’t love you like I could
Won’t love you like I would
He don’t know your body
He don’t do you right
He won’t love you like I would
Love you like I would
Like I would
