Everything I Did to Get to You (from Songland)
[Verse 1]
I'll admit the fact that I
Settled for somebody
Just to fight the lonely
Put myself out on the line
Tried to change the old me
Changin’ almost broke me
[Pre-Chorus]
Been the life of the party
Done the worst I could do
Chasin' love that was pointless
‘Til it pointed me to you
[Chorus]
All the hearts I ever held
Just held me back
I've been bruised and burned
But somehow I’m intact
All the times I thought I might've
Reached the end
I'd do it all again
Everything I did to get to you (Everything, everything)
Everything I did to get to you (Everything, everything)
[Verse 2]
On the road to where we are
I think I might've lost me
Somewhere in the city
But you saw me from the start
You see the world that I see
You don't try to fix me
[Pre-Chorus]
Been the life of the party
Done the worst I could do
Chasin' love that was pointless
‘Til it pointed me to you
[Chorus]
All the hearts I ever held
Just held me back
I've been bruised and burned
But somehow I'm intact
All the times I thought I might’ve
Reached the end
I’d do it all again
Everything I did to get to you (Everything, everything)
Everything I did to get to you, ooh (Everything, everything)
Everything I did to get to you (Everything, everything)
Whoohoo, oooh (Everything, everything)
[Verse 3]
On the road to where we are
I think I might've lost me
Somewhere in the city
[Chorus]
All the hearts I ever held
Just held me back
I’ve been bruised and burned
But somehow I'm intact
All the times I thought I might've
Reached the end
I'd do it all again
Everything I did to get to you (Everything, everything)
Everything I did to get to you (Everything, everything)
Everything I did for you
I did for you
