I've been a walking heartache
I've made a mess of me
The person that I've been lately
Ain't who I wanna be

But you stay here right beside me
Watch as the storm goes through
And I need you

God gave me you for the ups and downs
God gave me you for the days of doubt
For when I think I've lost my way
There are no words here left to say, it's true
God gave me you

There's more here than what were seeing
A divine conspiracy
That you, an angel lovely
Could somehow fall for me
You'll always be love's great martyr
Ill be the flattered fool
& I need you

God gave me you for the ups and downs
God gave me you for the days of doubt
For when I think I've lost my way
There are no words here left to say, it's true
God gave me you

On my own I'm only
Half of what I could be
I can't do without you
We are stitched together
And what love has tethered
I could baby, never undo

God gave me you for the ups and downs
God gave me you for the days of doubt
God gave me you for the ups and downs
God gave me you for the days of doubt
For when I think I've lost my way
There are no words here left to say, it's true
God gave me you, gave me you.
Gave me you

I got a head full of dreams and time here to scheme
This ain't good, good
I'm thinking, you know about what did and didn't go
Like it should, should

All of these expectations
Just mean my heart will be breaking
Why can't I see?

You give me what I need
Even on my brightest day
Even in a hurricane

You give me what I need
Even when there's way too much
Even when I'm down to dust

I troubled with time but its will was not mine
There was no slowin' where it was going
The wishes I willed, all came back unfulfilled
I was praying without patience

All of those expectations
Just meant my heart was breaking
Why can't I see?

You give me what I need
Even on my brightest day
Even in a hurricane

You give me what I need
Even when there's way too much
Even when I'm down to dust

I keep calm, carry on
Like nothing ever went wrong
That's what I'm gonna do
That's what I'm gonna do

Laugh it off, moving on
Get back where I belong
Live my life by leaning on you
Lean on you, I'm gonna lean on you, yeah

You give me what I need
Even on my brightest day
Even in a hurricane

You give me what I need
Even when it's way too much
Even when I'm down to dust

You give me what I need
Even on my brightest day
Even in a hurricane

You give me what I need
Oh, what I need, what I need
Oh, what I need

Baby, we are lying here
Pretending that we're both asleep
I can hear your broken heart
And every single breath you breathe

It's hard to find the words to say
When we both hurt like this
So I close my eyes and pray
Time will heal what we're bound to miss

No one can ever say
Why it goes this way

Sometimes what we want isn't what we get
Sometimes what we get ain't really what we want
Sometimes what we want isn't what we get
Sometimes what we get ain't really what we want

It seems for every one we win
There's another three we lose
We've waited for the answer here
Only just to leave confused

You know you're forever mine
And baby, I'm forever yours
I've waited in the darkest rooms
Ooh, waiting in the open door

No one can ever say
Why it goes this way

Sometimes what we want isn't what we get
Sometimes what we get ain't really what we want
Sometimes what we want isn't what we get
Sometimes what we get ain't really what we want

We've been so long wishing for things
We just keep forgetting that we
Got all we'll ever need in you and me, yeah, yeah
You and me, you and me, baby, yeah

Everything we have, anything we got
It was given babe, it was given, babe
There ain't a thing we need that heaven forgot
It was given babe, it was given, babe

Everything we have, anything we got
It was given babe, it was given, babe
Ain't a thing we need that heaven forgot
It was given babe, it was given, babe

Everything we have, anything we got
It was given babe, it was given, babe
There ain't a thing we need that heaven forgot
It was given babe, it was given, baby, yeah

Chameleon, you're breaking his heart
It's in pieces on the ground - all apart
There's nothing that that boy won't do when it comes to you

Chameleon, you know that it's wrong
But it's fun to have someone you can pull along
The way you treat that boy ain't fair, but he don't care

What does it mean if you know you don't mean it?
What does it say if you got nothing to say?

He's just your silly little thing hanging on a string
Waiting by the phone praying it'll ring
You know it ain't right
Cause you're never gonna do what he wants to
Kneeling by the bed, praying it true
You know it ain't right

Chameleon, what's he gonna do?
You gloss them lips, shake them hips
Honey, what's wrong with you?
He'll follow you wherever you go, and I know you know

You ain't gotta tell me, he fell too fast
But would you just tell him it ain't gonna last?

You don't need no intuition
All you need is a beating heart, beating heart
Ain't no math you need to figure
Nothing here you can pick apart

Does it feel good to you, baby?
Does it feel good to you, baby?
'Cause it feels like it should
It's gonna feel so good, baby

You're gonna be someone's somebody
You're gonna be somebody's someone
You're gonna be someone's somebody
You're gonna be somebody's someone
Somebody's someone

These nights get so lonely
Just the candles and the moon
But as you're waiting for that someone
Someone's out there waiting for you, baby

It will feel so good to you, baby
It will feel so good to you, baby
'Cause if it feels just like it should
It's gonna feel so good, baby

You're gonna be someone's somebody
You're gonna be somebody's someone
You're gonna be someone's somebody
You're gonna be somebody's someone

It could be winter or summertime
Or the middle of the fall
But nothing will matter then
No, it won't matter at all

You're gonna be somebody's someone
You're gonna be someone's somebody
You're gonna be somebody's someone
Somebody's someone

You're gonna be someone's somebody
You're gonna be somebody's someone
You're gonna be someone's somebody
You're gonna be somebody's someone

You're gonna be someone's somebody
You're gonna be somebody's someone

Give me something to build upon
Something I can see
Something to build upon, Right here in front of me

If I can't build it with my hands
Give me something that I can

Give me something to build upon
Something I can see

My head is hurting, My back is breaking from this burden
It's so hard waiting while there's
So much work to be done
Give me something I can build upon

Give me something I can do right now
Something that I can change
Give me something I can do right now, Sitting here feels so strange

If I say then I should do,
Lord, keep me to these words

Give me something I can do right now
Something I can change

I've been rued enough for the both of us
I hope that I haven't said too much lately, ooh lately
You laugh and listen to my mind
Underneath the lights of the city sky, baby, ooh baby

When laughing is gone my way
You're still beside me
When it all fall into places
Just remind me

Either way it's fine with me
You make it look so easy
We got all the time we need

Either way it's fine with me
You make it look so easy
You make it look so good

All these pictures hanging in the room
And things I thought I'd never do, baby, ooh baby
And I second guess what you don't doubt
And somehow it just don't works out lately, ooh lately

When laughing is gone my way
You're still beside me
When it all fall into places
Just remind me

Either way it's fine with me
You make it look so easy
We got all the time we need

Either way it's fine with me
You make it look so easy
You make it look so good

My life gets brighter by the day
From loving you, shine
I don't think you even have to try

Either way it's fine with me
You make it look so easy
We got all the time we need

Either way it's fine with me
You make it look so easy, baby
You make it look so good

Either way it's fine with me
You make it look so easy
We got all the time we need

Either way it's fine with me
You make it look so easy, baby, babe
You make it look so good

Tell me everything
'Cause I can see it in your eyes
There's a story there these tears
Won't tell me why

Oh, and don't be strong
Isn't that what got you here?
Wanderin' in this dark alone
Among your fears

Let me know what I can do
To bear this weight here with you

You do the same for me
Oh, you do the same
You're the blood when my heart won't beat
Oh, you do the same

So I hold the light in this night
So your eyes can see
You do the same for me

This circumstance
It is such a common thing
We're all butterflies
With broken wings

Let me know what I can do
To bear this weight here with you

You do the same for me
Oh, you do the same
You're the blood when my heart won't beat
Oh, you do the same

So I hold the light in this night
So your eyes can see
You do the same for me

Life will never leave us alone
So I'll never leave you alone

You do the same for me
Oh, you do the same
You're the blood when my heart won't beat
Oh, you do the same

And I hold the light in this night
So your eyes can see
You do the same for me
You do the same, the same for me

What do you say?
Let's give it up now and just be done
Maybe we're afraid
Of all that we will and won't become

It's hard to believe
The one closest to me
Can feel so far away

You're my pleasure, you're my pain
You're my sunshine, you're my rain
You're my darkest night lost at sea

You're the shadows, you're my light
You're the one that I need tonight
You are a stranger still to me
You're my lady, my life, my love, my enemy

Every day
We come together or come undone
Every time I break
Tell me again how far we've come

It's hard to believe
The one closest to me
Can feel so far away, so far away

You're my pleasure, you're my pain
You're my sunshine, you're my rain
You're my darkest night lost at sea

You're the shadows, you're my light
You're the one that I need tonight
You are a stranger still to me
You're my lady, my life, my love, my enemy

We're changing, it's painful
Into something good
We're changing, it's painful
But it's good

You're my pleasure, you're my pain
You're my sunshine, you're my rain
You're my darkest night lost at sea

You're the shadows, you're my light
You're the one that I need tonight
You are a stranger still to me
You're my lady, my life, my love, my enemy

My love, my enemy
My love, my enemy

We will have love, we will have pain
There will be days and days and days that feel the same
We will have fear, we will have joy
There maybe little girls and little boys

We will have friends, we will have peace
There will be nights of lights and music till you sleep
We will be strong though we were still weak
We live through so much more than we could take

Amen, Amen
With the dawn the love began again
Amen, Amen
What is done and yet to come, Amen

We will have hope, we will have doubt
There will be memories we could never live without
We will have tears but there will be grace
There will be prayers that we never thought we'd pray

Amen, Amen
With the dawn the love began again
Amen, Amen
What is done and yet to come, Amen

In the sun or the storm, the flood or the flame
When everything's wrong, when I'm the one to blame
When heartache grow old, I swear I'll say
I'll say Amen, Amen

With the dawn the love began again
Amen, Amen
What is done and yet to come, Amen

Amen, Amen
Amen, Amen
