It appears that “Like I Loved You” references the same situation described in “Never Come Back” – a past lover who left Dan is now with someone else. This track reveals his more vulnerable thoughts about how he thinks often about this past lover and wonders how he compares to who they are with now.
[Verse]
Sometimes it's all too much for me to hide
When everything gets twisted up inside
And I wish that you were there by my side, but still I try
If you find someone else, I'll be glad for you
I have to stop myself from thinking about the things you'll do
But I can't help it, the things I think just might be true, I try
[Chorus]
Does he do the things to you that I won't do?
Does he love you like I used to do?
Do you ever miss me like I miss you?
Don't you ever want me too?
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
Does he do the things to you that I won't do?
Does he love you like I used to do?
Do you ever miss me like I miss you?
Don't you ever want me too?
Does he do the things to you that I won't do?
Does he love you like I used to do?
Do you ever miss me like I miss you?
Don't you ever want me too?
