"Way Back into Love" is a pop song, written by Adam Schlesinger, from the 2007 film Music and Lyrics. There are two versions: a demo version sung by Hugh Grant and Drew Barrymore and the final version sung by Hugh Grant and Haley Bennett. It was used as the love theme in the film, much of whose plot revolves around the writing and arranging of the song. The song 'Young Love' by the band Mystery Jets featuring Laura Marling features a chorus which has been claimed to be a note-for-note copy of 'Way Back into Love.'
