Waking Up Complete Lyrics

Made for You Lyrics

[Intro]
One and two and three and four
One and two and three and four
One and two and three and four
One and two and three and four
 
[Verse 1]
I was writing, thinking with my long hand
Put pen to paper, everything was sinking
Then start to wonder how you're gonna handle me
When I'm under, swimming in the darkest sea
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Everybody wants you to make it, it's all yours
Everybody wants you to take it, it's all yours
Everybody wants you to make it, it's all yours
Everybody wants you to take it, t-t-take it
 
[Chorus]
Can you feel all the love?
Can you feel all the love?
You feel all the love
Can you feel all the love like it was made for you?
Like it was made for you
Like it was made for you
It was made for you
 
 
[Verse 2]
Tell me something, something that can move me
T-tell me lies and I swear you're gonna lose me
Getting like an ocean jealous of the fish
It feeds your devotion, swimming inside of me
 
[Pre-Chorus]
(Can you feel all the love?)
Everybody wants you to make it, it's all yours
(Can you feel all the love?)
Everybody wants you to take it, it's all yours
(You feel all the love)
Everybody wants you to make it, it's all yours
(Can you feel all the love?)
Everybody wants you to take it, t-t-take it
 
[Chorus]
Like it was made for you
Like it was made for you
Like it was made for you
It was made for you
 
[Bridge]
Can you feel?
Can you feel?
Can you feel?
 
 
[Outro]
All the right friends in all the right places
All the right moves and all the right faces
All the right friends in all the right places
All the right moves and all the right faces
(Can you feel all the love?)
All the right friends in all the right places
All the right moves and all the right faces
All the right friends in all the right places
All the right moves and all the right faces
 
[Outro 2]
All the right friends in all the right places
All the right moves and all the right faces
Ooh, we're going down

All the Right Moves Lyrics

[Intro]
Ah, ooh
 
[Chorus]
All the right friends in all the right places
So yeah, we're going down
They've got all the right moves and all the right faces
So yeah, we're going down
 
[Verse 1]
Let's paint the picture of the perfect place
They've got it better than when anyone's told ya
They'll be the King of Hearts and you're the Queen of Spades
Then we'll fight for you like we were your soldiers
I know we got it good, but they got it made
And their grass is getting greener each day
I know things are looking up, but soon they'll take us down
Before anybody's knowing our name
 
[Chorus]
They've got all the right friends in all the right places
So yeah, we're going down
They've got all the right moves and all the right faces
So yeah, we're going down
 
[Post-Chorus]
They say, "Everybody knows, everybody knows where we're going
Yeah, we're going down"
They say, "Everybody knows, everybody knows where we're going
Yeah, we're going down"
 
 
[Verse 2]
Do you think I'm special? Do you think I'm nice?
Am I bright enough to shine in your spaces?
Between the noise you hear and the sounds you like
Are we just sinking in an ocean of faces?
It can't be possible that rain could fall
Only when it's over our heads
The sun is shining everyday, but it's far away
Over the world that's dead
 
[Chorus]
They've got, they've got all the right friends in all the right places
So yeah, we're going down
They've got all the right moves and all the right faces
So yeah, we're going down
 
[Post-Chorus]
They say, "Everybody knows, everybody knows where we're going
Yeah, we're going down"
They say, "Everybody knows, everybody knows where we're going
Yeah, we're going down"
 
[Bridge]
It don't matter what you see
I know I could never be
Someone that'll look like you
It don't matter what you say
I know I could never fake
Someone that could sound like you
 
 
[Chorus]
All the right friends in all the right places
So yeah, we're going down
They've got all the right moves and all the right faces
So yeah, we're going down
All the right friends in all the right places
So yeah, we're going down
They've got all the right moves and all the right faces
So yeah, we're going down
 
[Post-Chorus]
They say, "Everybody knows, everybody knows where we're going
Yeah, we're going down"
They say, "Everybody knows, everybody knows where we're going
Yeah, we're going down"
 
[Outro]
Yeah, we're going down
Yeah, we're going down
All the right moves, hey
Yeah, we're going down (They say)
All the right moves, hey
Yeah, we're going down

Everybody Loves Me Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Well, hail Caesar, shadow in my backseat
And her friends are standing right in front of me
World wide from the Cimarron to Turkey
Open up, said everybody loves me
 
[Pre-Chorus]
And you don't have to make a sound
'Cause they got what you need
What you need
Oh, oh, oh, oh
 
[Verse 2]
Got love for the people that have warned you
God love all your sentimental virtue
Eight balls with the takers that'll make you
Late calls with the lovers that'll hate you
 
[Pre-Chorus]
And you don't have to make a sound
They got what you need
What you need
Make you say
 
[Chorus]
Oh my!
Feels just like I don't try
Looks so good I might die
All I know is everybody loves me
Head down
Swaying to my own sound
Flashes in my face now
All I know is everybody loves me
Everybody loves me
 
 
[Verse 3]
Well, I pray the music don't stop till I turn gray
Stars forever like John Sousa never fade
He had a beautiful child, named her Désirée
Hope I'm remembered for the things that I never made
 
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause you don't have to make a sound
When they got what you need
Make you say
 
[Chorus]
Oh my!
Feels just like I don't try
Looks so good I might die
All I know is everybody loves me
Head down
Swaying to my own sound
Flashes in my face now
All I know is everybody loves me
Everybody loves me
Everybody, everybody, oh
Everybody, everybody
 
[Bridge]
Don't need my health
Got my name and got my wealth
I stare at the sun
Just for kicks all by myself
I lose track of time
So I might be past my prime
But I'm feeling oh so good
Yeah!
 
 
[Chorus]
Oh my!
Feels just like I don't try
Looks so good I might die
All I know is everybody loves me
Head down
Swaying to my own sound
Flashes in my face now
All I know is everybody loves me
Everybody loves me
 
[Outro]
Loves me
Everybody, everybody
Woah!

All This Time Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Six on the second hand to New Years' resolutions
And there's just no question what this man should do
Take all the time lost, all the days that I cost
Take what I took and give it back to you
 
[Chorus]
All this time we were waiting for each other
All this time I was waiting for you
We got all these words, can't waste them on another
So I'm straight in a straight line running back to you
 
[Verse 2]
I don't know what day it is, I had to check the paper
And I don't know the city, but it isn't home
But you say I'm lucky to love something that loves me
But I'm torn as I could be wherever I roam
Hear me say...
 
[Chorus]
All this time we were waiting for each other
All this time I was waiting for you
We got all these words, can't waste them on another
So I'm straight in a straight line, running back to you
Yeah, oh, running back to you
Oh, running back to you, yeah
 
 
[Bridge]
Oh, and we're just so far
And we're just so far
To get back where you are
 
[Chorus]
All this time we were waiting for each other
All this time I was waiting for you
We got all this love, can't waste it on another
So I'm straight in a straight line, running back to you
I'm straight in a straight line, running back to you, yeah
Straight in a straight line, running back to you

Fear Lyrics

[Verse]
No sleep today
Can't even rest when the sun's down
No time, there's not enough
And nobody's watching me now
 
[Chorus]
When we were children we'd play
Out in the streets just tempting fate
When we were children we'd say
That we don't the meaning of
Fear, fear, fear
Fear, fear, fear
We don't know the meaning of
 
When we were children we'd play
Out in the streets just tempting fate
When we were children we'd say
That we don't the meaning of
Fear, fear, fear
Fear, fear, fear
We don't know the meaning of
 
[Outro]
Wish I
Didn't know the meaning of

Waking Up Lyrics

[Intro]
I found verity
On N'Orleans Avenue
Down where the air is thick
As L.A. skies are blue
The water tried to break it down, but it held through
It gave a little for the sake of staying true
 
[Verse 1]
We cut ties, we tell lies, we hate change
And we wanna claim where we feel
We take tolls, we rake yours
Yeah, we dig holes, and we're digging right in your fears
 
[Chorus]
We're waking up, we're waking up
And right on time, and right on time
We'll take these roads, we'll break them up
And right on time, and right on time
 
[Verse 2]
We got cars, we'll write laws, we won't pause
Don't you know we're all wizards working the hours?
We don't lose, we might bruise
Yeah, but we'll rain fire on you till you're playing all of your cards
 
 
[Chorus]
We're waking up, we're waking up
And right on time, and right on time
We'll take these roads, we'll break them up
And right on time, and right on time
On time
Right on time
Waking up, waking up
Yeah
 
[Outro]
Ooh!
Ooh!
Ooh!
