Russell Dickerson Is Back With New Music, “Love You Like I Used To”

Russell Dickerson is back with brand new music. This past fall, Dickerson celebrated his third No. 1 single with “Every Little Thing” and after nearly two and a half years since the release of his debut album Yours, Dickerson has dropped his newest starry-eyed single, “Love You Like I Used To.”

The “Blue Tacoma” singer first hinted about the forthcoming new music on Twitter, back in January, stating only the title of the track and after teasing snippets of the song over the past week, “Love You Like I Used To” is finally available across all streaming platforms. In the smooth-tempo love ballad, Dickerson confesses that he didn’t know he could love his girl more than he already did, but that love continues to change and grow with each passing day.

“I don’t love you like I used to // This gets better every time you // Kiss me like this // It’s stronger the longer I’m with you // It’s more than every single day before // Didn’t know I could ever love you // More than I did, but baby I do // I don’t love you like I used to”

As the song plays, the singer-songwriter expresses the parallels between his love story and classic, sweetened cliches.

“What we got ain’t got no ending, like a band of solid gold // It’s sweeter with time like strawberry wine, it gets as good as it gets old // And oh, we thought we knew what it meant back then // But I keep fallin’ all in higher than I’ve ever been”

If you have been following his career, you’ll know that his wife, Kailey has been the picture-perfect muse for songs that connect with his fans and depict a model love story. Our 2017 Artist to Watch has made a career out of loving his beautiful partner and we are so excited to finally hear new music from one of our all-time favorite artists. Dropping just in time for your Valentine’s Day plans, “Love You Like I Used To” is the perfect addition to your evening’s playlist.

Dickerson is joining Chris Lane in support of Kane Brown’s The Worldwide Beautiful Tour. Check out the dates here.

“Love You Like I Used To” Lyrics

Girl, I’ve always loved you, but something’s changed
Blame it on time, the road or the ride, but it ain’t the same
It’s a different kind of feeling, not the one I knew
From the sweet on your lips to how your hand in mine fits
Girl, I’ve always loved you, but

I don’t love you like I used to
This gets better every time you
Kiss me like this
It’s stronger the longer I’m with you

It’s more than every single day before
Didn’t know I could ever love you
More than I did, but baby I do
I don’t love you like I used to

What we got ain’t got no ending, like a band of solid gold
It’s sweeter with time like strawberry wine, it gets as good as it gets old
And oh, we thought we knew what it meant back then
But I keep fallin’ all in higher than I’ve ever been

I don’t love you like I used to
This gets better every time you
Kiss me like this
It’s stronger the longer I’m with you
It’s more than every single day before
Didn’t know I could ever love you
More than I did, but baby I do

I don’t love you like I used to
I don’t love you like I used to
This gets better every time you
Kiss me like this
It’s stronger the longer I’m with you
It’s more than every single day before
Didn’t know I could ever love you
More than I did, but baby I do
I don’t love you like I used to
I don’t love you like I used to
Love you like I used to, yeah
I don’t love you like I used to
