Shape of you is the exclusive song by the British rapper, Ed Sheeran.
Ed Sheeran, an English singer-songwriter, has a song called “Shape of You.” It was made available on January 6, 2017, along with “Castle on the Hill,” as one of the double lead singles from his third studio album.
Ed Sheeran, Steve Mac, and Johnny McDaid wrote the dancehall-influenced pop song. Kandi Burruss, Tameka “Tiny” Cottle, and Kevin “She’kspere” Briggs are also listed as writers because they interpolated TLC’s “No Scrubs” for the song. Sheeran and Mac produced the song.
The track served as the final composition for Sheeran’s third album. The song was not meant to be a part of the album because he had just finished writing all the songs he wanted for it.
Rudimental originally intended for it to be a duet with Rihanna, but the head of the record company persuaded him to keep the song for himself. He stated:
“[‘Shape of You’] is actually a really random one because I went in to write songs for other people with a guy called Steve Mac and Johnny McDaid, and we were writing this song and I was like ‘this would really work for Rihanna,'” he explained. “And then I started singing lyrics like ‘putting Van the Man on the jukebox’ and I was like ‘well she’s not really going to sing that, is she?’ And then we sort of decided halfway through that we were just going to make it for me.”
Sheeran claims that Steve Mac began the songwriting session by playing the song’s opening chords on the keyboard. Sheeran then joined in and added percussion to the song by tapping his guitar. He claimed that when writing the song, he made an effort to keep the music simple “rather than something more elaborate, “more stripped”: “I’m an acoustic artist, first and foremost.

And because I don’t have all the other musicians present when I perform live, I can’t duplicate these things.” Sheeran altered the original melody by interpolating “No Scrubs” onto a portion of the melody in order to give the song an R&B vibe.
Additionally, he disclosed that McDaid changed the song’s lyrics because he felt that the line “I’m in love with your body” sounded objectifying. The song’s original lyrics did not end with the words “the shape of you” in the chorus.

Shape of you lyrics by Ed Sheeran
The club isn’t the best place to find a lover
So the bar is where I go
Me and my friends at the table doing shots
Drinking fast and then we talk slow
And you come over and start up a conversation with just me
And trust me I’ll give it a chance now
Take my hand, stop, put Van the Man on the jukebox
And then we start to dance, and now I’m singing like
Girl, you know I want your love
Your love was handmade for somebody like me
Come on now, follow my lead
I may be crazy, don’t mind me
Say, boy, let’s not talk too much
Grab on my waist and put that body on me
Come on now, follow my lead
Come, come on now, follow my lead
I’m in love with the shape of you
We push and pull like a magnet do
Although my heart is falling too
I’m in love with your body
And last night you were in my room
And now my bedsheets smell like you
Every day discovering something brand new
I’m in love with your body
Oh-I-oh-I-oh-I-oh-I
I’m in love with your body
Oh-I-oh-I-oh-I-oh-I
I’m in love with your body
Oh-I-oh-I-oh-I-oh-I
I’m in love with your body
Every day discovering something brand new
I’m in love with the shape of you
One week in we let the story begin
We’re going out on our first date
You and me are thrifty, so go all you can eat
Fill up your bag and I fill up a plate
We talk for hours and hours about the sweet and the sour
And how your family is doing okay
Leave and get in a taxi, then kiss in the backseat
Tell the driver make the radio play, and I’m singing like
Girl, you know I want your love
Your love was handmade for somebody like me
Come on now, follow my lead
I may be crazy, don’t mind me
Say, boy, let’s not talk too much
Grab on my waist and put that body on me
Come on now, follow my lead
Come, come on now, follow my lead
I’m in love with the shape of you
We push and pull like a magnet do
Although my heart is falling too
I’m in love with your body
And last night you were in my room
And now my bedsheets smell like you
Every day discovering something brand new
I’m in love with your body
Oh-I-oh-I-oh-I-oh-I
I’m in love with your body
Oh-I-oh-I-oh-I-oh-I
I’m in love with your body
Oh-I-oh-I-oh-I-oh-I
I’m in love with your body
Every day discovering something brand new
I’m in love with the shape of you
Come on, be my baby, come on
Come on, be my baby, come on
Come on, be my baby, come on
Come on, be my baby, come on
Come on, be my baby, come on
Come on, be my baby, come on
Come on, be my baby, come on
Come on, be my baby, come on
I’m in love with the shape of you
We push and pull like a magnet do
Although my heart is falling too
I’m in love with your body
Last night you were in my room
And now my bedsheets smell like you
Every day discovering something brand new
I’m in love with your body
Come on, be my baby, come on
Come on, be my baby, come on
I’m in love with your body
Come on, be my baby, come on
Come on, be my baby, come on
I’m in love with your body
Come on, be my baby, come on
Come on, be my baby, come on
I’m in love with your body
Every day discovering something brand new
I’m in love with the shape of you
