BSB song #14: The One

THE ONE
Taken from the album "Millenium"

I'll be the one...

I guess you were lost when I met you
Still there were tears in your eyes
So out of trust and I knew
No more than mysteries and lies

There you were, wild and free
Reachin' out like you needed me
A helping hand to make it right
I am holding you all through the night

CHORUS
I'll be the one (I'll be the one)
Who will make all your sorrows undone
I'll be the light (Ill be the light)
When you feel like there's nowhere to run

I'll be the one... to hold you
And make sure that you'll be alright
'Cause my faith is gone
And I want to take you from darkness to light

There you were, wild and free
Reachin' out like you needed me
A helping hand to make it right
I am holding you all through the night

I'll be the one (I'll be the one)
Who will make all your sorrows undone
I'll be the light (Ill be the light)
When you feel like there's nowhere to run

I'll be the one... to hold you
And make sure that you'll be alright...

You need me like I need you
We can share our dreams comin' true
I can show you what true love means
Just take my hand, baby please...

I'll be the one, I'll be the light
Where you can run, to make it right
I'll be the one, I'll be the light
Where you can run

I'll be the one (I'll be the one)
Who will make all your sorrows undone
I'll be the light (Ill be the light)
When you feel like there's nowhere to run

I'll be the one, I'll be the light
Where you can run to make it right
I'll be the one, I'll be the light (I'll be the light)
Where you can run to make it right
I'll be the one

To hold you
And make sure that you'll be alright...

I'll be the one

BSB song #13: I Want It That Way

I WANT IT THAT WAY
Taken from the album "Millenium"

Yeah...
You are my fire

The one desire
Believe when I say
I want it that way

But we are two worlds apart
Can't reach to your heart
When you say
That I want it that way

[Chorus]
Tell me why
Ain't nothin' but a heartache
Tell me why
Ain't nothin' but a mistake
Tell me why
I never wanna hear you say
I want it that way

Am I your fire
Your one desire
Yes I know it's too late
But I want it that way

Tell me why
Ain't nothin' but a heartache
Tell me why
Ain't nothin' but a mistake
Tell me why
I never wanna hear you say
I want it that way

Now I can see that we're falling apart
From the way that it used to be, yeah
No matter the distance
I want you to know
That deep down inside of me...

You are my fire
The one desire
You are (you are, you are, you are)

Don't wanna hear you say...
Ain't nothin' but a heartache
Ain't nothin' but a mistake
(Don't wanna hear you say)
I never wanna hear you say
(oh yeah) I want it that way

Tell me why
Ain't nothin' but a heartache
Tell me why
Ain't nothin' but a mistake
Tell me why
I never wanna hear you say

(I wanna hear you say)
I want it that way

Tell me why...
Ain't nothin' but a heartache
Ain't nothin but a mistake
Tell me why
I never wanna hear you say
(Don't wanna hear you say it)
I want it that way
Cause I want it that way

BSB song #12: Larger Than Life

LARGER THAN LIFE
Taken from the album "Millenium"


Yeah-hahaha!! Yeah

I may run and hide

When you're screamin' my name, alright
But let me tell you now
There are prices to fame, alright
All of our time spent in flashes of light

Chorus
All you people can't you see, can't you see
How your love's affecting our reality
Every time we're down, you can make it right
And that makes you larger than life

Looking at the crowd
And I see your body sway, c'mon
Wishn' I could thank you
In a different way, c'mon

'Cause all of your time spent keeps us alive

All you people can't you see, can't you see
How your love's affecting our reality
Every time we're down
You can make it right
And that makes you larger than life

Hur hur... yeah, that's right
All of your time spent keeps us alive... yow!!

All you people can't you see, can't you see
How your love's affecting our reality
Every time we're down
You can make it right
And that makes you larger than life

Yeah, every time we're down
Yeah, you can make it right
Yeah, and that's what makes you larger than life...

All you people can't you see, can't you see
How your love's affecting our reality
Every time we're down
You can make it right
And that makes you larger
And that makes you larger
And that makes you larger than life

BSB song #11: More Than That

MORE THAN THAT
Taken from the album "Black & Blue"


I can see that you've been crying
You can't hide it with a lie
What's the use in you denying
That what you have is wrong

I heard him promise you forever
But forever's come and gone
Baby, he would say whatever
It takes to keep you blind
To the truth between the lines, oh...

CHORUS
I will love you more than that
I won't say the words
Then take them back
Don't give loneliness a chance
Baby listen to me when I say
I will love you more than that

Baby, you deserve much better
What's the use in holding on
Don't you see it's now or never
Cause I just can't be friends
Baby knowing in the end, that...

I will love you more than that
I won't say the words, then take them back
Don't give loneliness a chance
Baby listen to me when I say... hey

There's not a day that passes by
I don't wonder why we haven't tried
It's not too late to change your mind
So take my hand, don't say goodbye...

I will love you more than that
I won't say the words then take them back

I will love you more than that
I won't say the words then take them back
Don't give loneliness a chance
Baby listen to me when I say
I will love you more than that

I will love you more than that

I won't say the words, then take them back
Don't give loneliness a chance
Baby listen to me when I say
I will love you more than that

BSB song #10: Shape Of My Heart

SHAPE OF MY HEART
Taken from the album "Black & Blue"


Hmm, yeah, yeah
Baby, please try to forgive me
Stay here, don't put out the glow
Hold me now, don't bother
If every minute it makes me weaker

You can save me from the man that I've become

Chorus:
Lookin' back on the things I've done
I was tryin' to be someone
I played my part, kept you in the dark
Now let me show you the shape of my heart

Sadness is beautiful, loneliness that's tragical
So help me I can't win this war, oh no
Touch me now, don't bother
If every second it makes me weaker
You can save me from the man I've become...

CHORUS

I'm here with my confession
Got nothing to hide no more
I don't know where to start
But to show you the shape of my heart...

I'm lookin' back on the things I've done
I never wanna play the same old part
I'll keep you in the dark
Now let me show you the shape of my heart

Chorus 2x

Show you the shpae of my heart...

BSB song #9: The Call

THE CALL
Taken from the album "Black and Blue"


[Phone rings girl picks up]

[Girl:] "Hello?"
[AJ:] "Hi it's me what's up baby? I'm sorry listen
I'm gonna be late tonight so don't stay up and wait for me ok?"
[Girl:] "Where are you?"
[AJ:] [people get louder] "Wait wait, say that again?"
[Girl:] "Hello?"
[AJ:] "You're really dropping out, I think my battery must be low.
Listen if you can hear me we're goin to a place nearby, alright?
Gotta go" [click]

Let me tell you the story about the call that changed my destiny
Me and my boys went out, just to end up in mysery
I was about to go home and there she was standing in front of me
I said 'Hi, I got a little place nearby wanna go?'
I should have said 'No'
, someone's waiting for me
But I called my girl up and said

Listen Baby I'm sorry
Just wanna tell you don't worry
I will be late don't stay up and wait for me
I'll say again you're dropping out,
My battery is low
, so you know
We're goin to a place nearby
, I gotta go

Now two years gone, nothing's been won
I can't take it back what's done is done
One of her friends found out
That she wasn't my only one
And it eats me from inside, that she's not by my side
Just because I made that call and lied

Listen Baby I'm sorry
Just wanna tell you don't worry
I will be late don't stay up and wait for me
I'll say again you're dropping out
My battery is low, so you know
We're goin to a place nearby, I gotta go

"Listen baby I'm sorry" "Hello?"
"Listen baby I'm sorry" "Hello?"
"Listen baby I'm sorry" "Hello?"
"Listen baby I'm sorry" "Hello?"

(choir-like singing)

Let me tell you the story about the call that changed my destiny
Me and my boys went out, just to end up in mysery
I was about to go home and there she was standing in front of me
Said hi, I got a little place nearby, gotta go...

Listen Baby I'm sorry
Just wanna tell you don't worry
I will be late, don't stay up and wait for me
I'll say again you're dropping out my battery is low
So you know, we're goin to a place nearby, gotta go

Listen Baby I'm sorry
Just wanna tell you don't worry
I will be late, don't stay up and wait for me
I'll say again you're dropping out my battery is low
So you know we're goin to a place nearby
We're goin to a place nearby, gotta go

BSB song #8: Shattered (soundcheck)

SHATTERED
Taken from the album "This Is Us"


Ahhh... ah ahhh... ahhhh... ohhh

So empty, can't feel no more,

As I'm left with my tears on the floor
I wait for my heart to mend,
But you keep tearing a hole

Inside, I'm so lost,
In the middle of my heart
It's a battlefield of love,
I've been fighting for too long

And now I'm shattered,
(From the chip in my heart, kept taking it till it broke)
Oh how it hurts
(Felt it slipped from your hand, hit the ground and now it's shattered)
I'm so shattered
(Can't believe it was me, I'm so shattered)
So shattered
(Can't believe, you and me, ahh)
So shattered
(Can't believe, you left me, I'm so shattered)
I'm shattered, cut from with-inside, oh

What am I still here for,
Could it be that I'm just waiting
Hoping you'd rescue me,
And put the pieces together again

Inside, I'm so lost,
In the middle of my heart
It's a battlefield of love,
I've been fighting for too long

And now I'm shattered
(From the chip in my heart, kept taking it till it broke)
Oh how it hurts
(Felt it slipped from you hand, hit the ground and now it's shattered)
I'm so shattered
(Can't believe it was me, I'm so shattered)
So shattered
(Can't believe, you and me, ahh)
So shattered
(Can't believe, you left me, I'm so shattered)
I'm shattered, cut from with-inside, oh

Tell me what you're really here for,
If you never really loved me
I gave my all but it still wasn't enough
'Cause all you had to say was that you ain't
Looking for commitment
Instead of telling me what I wanted to hear, hey!

You took my emotions
and scattered them on the ground
So hard to just pick up,
and move on with life, again...!

And now I'm shattered
(From the chip in my heart, kept taking it till it broke)
Oh how it hurts
(Felt it slipped from your hand, hit the ground and now it's shattered)
I'm so shattered
(Can't believe it was me, I'm so shattered)
So shattered
(Can't believe, you and me, ahh)
So shattered
(Can't believe, you left me, I'm so shattered)
I'm shattered, cut from with-inside, oh

Can't believe, you left me, ahh

BSB song #7: Masquerade (soundcheck)

Backstreet
Listen up

This scene's so hypnotic
Smoking mirrors, lights and magic
Paper faces in gold
There's solider boys, beauty queens
Everyone's a mystery
It's got me losing control

Yearning, I'm yearning for the one to steal my eyes
Wanna play in this game of disguise

It's a masquerade, a love parade
So won't you stay and dance with me
All through the night and day
My masquerade, I need you baby
So stay with me tonight

Masquerade, Masquerade, Masquerade, Masquerade
Masquerade, Masquerade, Masquerade, Masquerade

Just like a perfect dream
I don't ever wanna leave
A thousand freaks in the show
One's a tiger, one's a lynx
One's a king that suffering
Moving high, moving low

Burning, I'm burning, can't you see it in my eyes?
Wanna play in this game of disguise

It's a masquerade, a love parade
So won't you stay and dance with me
All through the night and day
My masquerade, I need you baby
So stay with me tonight

Masquerade, Masquerade, Masquerade, Masquerade
Masquerade, Masquerade, Masquerade, Masquerade

I gotta know the girl behind the mask
Let me in, where you've been, don't pretend
Dreamed that I had her alone
Show your face to me, we could be everything

It's a masquerade, a love parade
So won't you stay and dance with me
All through the night and day
My masquerade, I need you baby
So stay

A masquerade, a love parade
So won't you stay and dance with me
All though the night and day
My masquerade, I need you baby
So stay with me tonight

Masquerade, Masquerade, Masquerade, Masquerade
Masquerade, Masquerade, Masquerade, Masquerade

BSB song #6: If I Knew Then (soundcheck)

IF I KNEW THEN
Taken from the album "This Is Us"


Oh... what!

Life should be like a game of cards
You make a mistake
Shuffle the deck and start over
It should be just like you drivin' in your car
Get lost and your navigation system
Gets you closer

But there ain't no handbook you're on your own
Got no instructions when it comes to love
Cause once you do something, can't be undone
Wish I could take back letting you go

If I knew then
What I know now
I wouldn't have said
I don't need you around
Alone in this mess
Silence is so loud
So I will treat you the best
Baby, if I knew then

What I know now (what I know now)
What I know now (what I know now)
What I know now (what I know now)
Yeah I will treat you the best
Baby, if I knew then
What I know now

Life should come with remote control
Then I could rewind into the time it was better
It should have a restart button
So, I could travel right back
To the day that I met her

But there ain't no handbook, you're on your own
Got no instructions when it comes to love
Cause when you do something (Oh)
Can't be undone (Oh)
Wish I could take back letting you go

If I knew then
What I know now
I wouldn't have said
I don't need you around
Alone in this mess
Silence is so loud
So I will treat you the best
Baby, if I knew then

What I know now (what I know now)
What I know now (what I know now)
What I know now (what I know now)
Yeah I will treat you the best
Baby, if I knew then
What I know now

Oh... ohhh... whoa whoa yeah

Cause there ain't no handbook (handbook)
You're on your own (your own)
Got no instructions (instructions)
When it comes to love (to love)
Cause when you do something (you do)
Can't be undone (undone)
Wish I could take back letting you go...

If I knew then
What I know now
I wouldn't have said
I don't need you around
Alone in this mess
Silence is so loud
So I will treat you the best
Baby, if I knew then

What I know now (what I know now)
What I know now (what I know now)
What I know now (what I know now)
Yeah I will treat you the best
Baby, if I knew then
What I know now

If I knew then
What I know now
I wouldn't have said
I don't need you around
Alone in this mess
Silence is so loud
So I will treat you the best
Baby, if I knew then

What I know now (what I know now)
What I know now (what I know now)
What I know now (what I know now)
Yeah I will treat you the best
Baby, if I knew then
What I know now

BSB song #5: PDA

PDA (PUBLIC DISPLAY OF AFFECTION)
Taken from the album "This Is It"


Intimacy fresh from my dreams
Over a triple X movie screen
I couldn't care less about being seen
A higher self esteem if you're on me?
(ain't that the way it's supposed to be?)
I say baby, do you think
Sugar so sweet, should rot my teeth
But instead it just rottens me...
Spoiled crazy (I said)

Public display of affection (Gotta make 'em)
Pointing in my direction (Watch me, watch me)
Public display of affection
Makes them wish they had it this way

We'd be at the club, the restaurant,
the grocery store or the movies
Kissing and touching
with my hands all over your booty
Wherever it is, we is, I love it truly
Your PDA hey hey (I want your PDA)
Your PDA, hey hey (I want your PDA)
Your PDA hey hey (I want your PDA)

Remember at the beach we brought the sheets
We were harassed by police
Good thing we didn't go too deep
Everywhere we be
the passion in me just screams...

I just need you in my reach
Baby your suspense can be intense
it's got me convinced, oh yeah
you're the fingers to my instrument

Public display of affection (Gotta make 'em)
Pointing in my direction (Watch me, watch me)
Public display of affection
Makes them wish they had it this way

We'd be at the club, the restaurant,
the grocery store or the movies
Kissing and touching
with my hands all over your booty
Wherever it is, we is, I love it truly
Your PDA hey hey (I want your PDA)
Your PDA, hey hey (I want your PDA)
Your PDA hey hey (I want your PDA)
Your PDA, hey hey
Your PDA, hey hey (I want your PDA)

From the lobby to the patio
(Boy you're so crazy)
And we're so compatible
From the Starbucks to the Navo
(hmm, you're nasty)
And we're so compatible

We'd be at the club, the restaurant,
the grocery store or the movies
Kissing and touching
with my hands all over your booty
Wherever it is, we is, I love it truly
Your PDA hey hey (I want your PDA)
Your PDA, hey hey (I want your PDA)
Your PDA, hey hey (I want your PDA)
Your PDA, hey hey
Your PDA, hey hey (I want your PDA)

I wanna run (I want your PDA)
All over your body
(I, I, I want your PDA) Oh oh ohhh

I wanna run (I want your PDA)
All over your body
(I, I, I want your PDA) PDA-A!

I want your PDA
Public display of affection
I want your PDA
