Ariana Grande concludes her Positions album with this romantic R&B ballad about how love can smooth away perceived imperfections. Ooh, 'cause nobody ever loved me like you do I'd love to see me from your point of view Grande wishes she could switch positions with her romantic partner so she can see herself through his POV (point of view). Then she'd be able to understand why he loves her so much, despite her flaws. It is widely believed that real estate realtor Dalton Gomez is the understanding lover Grande is singing about on this one. The pair quarantined together during the COVID lockdown, and here the singer is giving us an insight into her newfound happiness with her boyfriend. Positions finds Grande mostly in the company of longtime collaborators. She penned this song with her go-to writing partner Tayla Parx and her regular producer Tommy "TBHits" Brown. Mr. Franks (Blackpink's "Ice Cream," Justin Bieber's "Holy") and Oliver "Junior" Frid (Little Mix's "Sweet Melody") also assisted with the production.
It's like you got superpowers Turn my minutes into hours You got more than 20/20, babe Made of glass, the way you see through me You know me better than I do Can't seem to keep nothin' from you How you touch my soul from the outside Permeate my ego and my pride I wanna love me (ooh) The way that you love me (ooh) Ooh, for all of my pretty and all of my ugly too I'd love to see me from your point of view I wanna trust me (trust me) The way that you trust me (trust me) Oh, 'cause nobody ever loved me like you do I'd love to see me from your point of view I'm getting used to receiving Still getting good at not leaving I'ma love you even though I'm scared Learnin' to be grateful for myself You love my lips 'cause they say the Things we've always been afraid of I can feel it starting to subside Learnin' to believe in what is mine I wanna love me (ooh) The way that you love me (ooh) Ooh, for all of my pretty and all of my ugly too I'd love to see me from your point of view I wanna trust me (trust me) The way that you trust me (trust me) Ooh, 'cause nobody ever loved me like you do I'd love to see me from your point of view I couldn't believe it Or see it for myself Know I be impatient But now I'm out here fallin', fallin' Frozen, slowly thawing, got me right I won't keep you waitin', waitin' All my baggage fadin' safely (baggage fadin') And if my eyes deceive me Won't let them stray too far away I wanna love me (ooh) The way that you love me (ooh) Ooh, for all of my pretty and all of my ugly too I'd love to see me from your point of view I wanna trust me, ooh (trust me) The way that you trust me, baby (trust me) 'Cause nobody ever loved me like you do I'd love to see me from your point of view, yeah
