music_and_lyrics Way Back Into Love is a song from the film Music and Lyrics. There are two versions: a demo version (from the film) by Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore and the original version by Hugh Grant and Haley Bennett.

Music and Lyrics is a romantic comedy film released on February 2007. The film stars Hugh Grant as Alex Fletcher, a 1980s pop star and Drew Barrymore as Sophie Fisher, a former English literature university major. It chronicles their attempt at writing a song for singer Cora Corman (Haley Bennett). 

Ok a little confession is in order: I'm secretly in love with Drew Barrymore! Yep, she is that gorgeous and I've been a big fan of her ever since I saw her with Adam Sandler in 50 First Dates.

But that's not the reason I'm posting this song today. Well, actually it might be part of it :)  But the song really deserves special attention because of the touching lyrics and beautiful melody. Watching this movie, you get to see how this song gets written and played step by step and that really tells something about what goes into song writing. Plus did I mention that Drew is plain gorgeous? Oh, I guess I did.

Lyrics

I’ve been living with a shadow overhead
I’ve been sleeping with a cloud above my bed
I’ve been lonely for so long
Trapped in the past, I just can’t seem to move on

I’ve been hiding all my hopes and dreams away
Just in case I ever need em again someday
I’ve been setting aside time
To clear a little space in the corners of my mind

All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can’t make it through without a way back into love
Oh oh oh

I’ve been watching but the stars refuse to shine
I’ve been searching but I just don’t see the signs
I know that it’s out there
There’s got to be something for my soul somewhere

I’ve been looking for someone to shed some light
Not just somebody just to get me through the night
I could use some direction
And I’m open to your suggestions

All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can’t make it through without a way back into love
And if I open my heart again
I guess I’m hoping you’ll be there for me in the end

There are moments when I don’t know if it’s real
Or if anybody feels the way I feel
I need inspiration
Not just another negotiation

All I want to do is find a way back into love
I can’t make it through without a way back into love
And if I open my heart to you
I’m hoping you’ll show me what to do
And if you help me to start again
You know that I’ll be there for you in the end
