American punk rock band A Rocket to the Moon was founded during 2006 in Braintree, Massachusetts by vocalist Nick Santino as a musical experiment. He had formerly fronted the local bands The Bad Year and The Midway Class. After using local musicians to begin with, Santino eventually recruited guitarist Justin Richards, bassist Eric Halvorsen, and drummer Andrew Cook as full time members of the band. A Rocket To the Moon released their first full-length album, On Your Side on October 13, 2009. This is the second single to be taken from the LP. "Like" was the band's first single to enter the Billboard Hot 100. The band explained to Artist Direct that this is a "good old-fashioned break up song," and it explores that "difficult yet crucial process of growing up and eventually realizing that while the break up caused you pain, in the end, it was for the best." The song's music video was filmed in Santa Barbara, California.
I can feel her breath as she's sleeping next to me Sharing pillows and cold feet She can feel my heart, fell asleep to its beat Under blankets and warm sheets If only I could be in that bed again If only it were me instead of him Does he watch your favorite movies? Does he hold you when you cry? Does he let you tell him all your favorite parts when you've seen it a million times? Does he sing to all your music while you dance to Purple Rain? Does he do all these things like I used to? 14 months and seven days ago Oh, I know you know how we felt about that night Just your skin against the window Oh, we took it slow and we both know It should have been me inside that car It should have been me instead of him in the dark Does he watch your favorite movies? Does he hold you when you cry? Does he let you tell him all your favorite Parts when you've seen it a million times? Does he sings to all your music while you dance to Purple Rain? Does he do all these things like I used to? I know, Love (I'm a sucker for that feeling) Happens all the time, Love (I always end up feeling cheated) You're on my mind, Love (oh darling, lead her where that leaded) It happens all the time, Love, yeah Will he love you like I loved you? Will he tell you every day? Will he make you make you feel like You're invincible with every word he'll say? Can you promise me if this was right? Don't throw this all away Can you do all these things? Will you do all these things like we used to? Oh, like we used to
