Wherever you will go

So lately, I've been wonderin


Who will be there to take my place
When I'm gone, you'll need love
To light the shadows on your face
If a great wave should fall
It would fall upon us all
And between the sand and stone
Could you make it on your own

[Chorus:]
If I could, then I would
I'll go wherever you will go
Way up high or down low
I'll go wherever you will go

And maybe, I'll find out


The way to make it back someday
To watch you, to guide you
Through the darkest of your days
If a great wave should fall
It would fall upon us all
Well I hope there's someone out there
Who can bring me back to you

[Chorus]

Runaway with my heart


Runaway with my hope
Runaway with my love

I know now, just quite how


My life and love might still go on
In your heart and your mind
I'll stay with you for all of time

[Chorus]

If I could turn back time


I'll go wherever you will go
If I could make you mine
I'll go wherever you will go

Lyrics to How To Save A Life :


Step one you say we need to talk
He walks you say sit down it's just a talk
He smiles politely back at you
You stare politely right on through
Some sort of window to your right
As he goes left and you stay right
Between the lines of fear and blame
You begin to wonder why you came

CHORUS:
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

Let him know that you know best


Cause after all you do know best
Try to slip past his defense
Without granting innocence
Lay down a list of what is wrong
The things you've told him all along
And pray to God he hears you
And pray to God he hears you

CHORUS:
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

As he begins to raise his voice


You lower yours and grant him one last choice
Drive until you lose the road
Or break with the ones you've followed
He will do one of two things
He will admit to everything
Or he'll say he's just not the same
And you'll begin to wonder why you came

CHORUS:
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

CHORUS:
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
How to save a life
How to save a life

CHORUS:
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life

CHORUS:
Where did I go wrong, I lost a friend
Somewhere along in the bitterness
And I would have stayed up with you all night
Had I known how to save a life
How to save a life

Because of you

Want to but I can't help it


I love the way it feels
It's got me stuck between my fantasy and what is real
I need it when I want it I want it when I don't
Tell myself I'll stop everyday knowin' that I won't

I got a problem and I don't know what to do about it


Even if I did I don't know if I would quit but I doubt it
I'm taken by the thought of it and I know this much is true
Baby you have become my addiction I'm so strung out on you
I can barely move but I like it
And it's all because of you [3X]
And it's all because…
Never get enough
She's the sweetest drug

Think of it every second


I can't get nothing done
Only concern is the next time I'm gonna get me some
Know I should stay away from cause it's no good for me
I try and try but my obsession wont let me leave

I got a problem and I don't know what to do about it


Even if I did I don't know if I would quit but I doubt it
I'm taken by the thought of it and I know this much is true
Baby you have become my addiction I'm so strung out on you
I can barely move but I like it
And it's all because of you (all because of you) [3X]
And it's all because…
Never get enough
She's the sweetest drug

Ain't no doubt so strung out [2X]


Over you over you over you

Because of you
And it's all because of you
Never get enough
She's the sweetest drug she's the sweetest drug

Crashing cars

We'll do it all
Everything
On our own

We don't need
Anything
Or anyone

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me
And just forget the world?

I don't quite know


How to say
How I feel

Those three words


Are said too much
They're not enough

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me
And just forget the world?

Forget what we're told


Before we get too old
Show me a garden
That's bursting into life

Let's waste time


Chasing cars
Around our heads

I need your grace


To remind me
To find my own

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me
And just forget the world?

Forget what we're told


Before we get too old
Show me a garden
That's bursting into life

All that I am
All that I ever was
Is here in your perfect eyes
They're all I can see

I don't know where


Confused about how as well
Just know that these things
Will never change for us at all

If I lay here
If I just lay here
Would you lie with me
And just forget the world?

Ms bright side
I'm coming out of my cage
And I've been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all

It started out with a kiss


How did it end up like this?
It was only a kiss
It was only a kiss

Now I'm falling asleep


And she's calling a cab
While he's having a smoke
And she's taking a drag

Now they're going to bed


And my stomach is sick
And it's all in my head

But she's touching his chest now


He takes off her dress now
Let me go

And I just can't look it's killing me


And taking control

Jealousy, turning saints into the sea


Swimming through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibis

But it's just the price I pay


Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes
'Cause I'm Mr. Brightside

I'm coming out of my cage


And I've been doing just fine
Gotta gotta be down
Because I want it all

It started out with a kiss


How did it end up like this?
It was only a kiss
It was only a kiss

Now I'm falling asleep


And she's calling a cab
While he's having a smoke
And she's taking a drag

Now they're going to bed


And my stomach is sick
And it's all in my head

But she's touching his chest now


He takes off her dress now
Let me go

'Cause I just can't look it's killing me


And taking control

Jealousy, turning saints into the sea


Swimming through sick lullabies
Choking on your alibis

But it's just the price I pay


Destiny is calling me
Open up my eager eyes
'Cause I'm Mr. Brightside

I never
I never
I never
I never
