You have it all
The green eyes, the smile
You have it all
The courage, the style
You have it all
From your laugh to your jokes
From your goals to your hopes
Like finding something long lost
That I forgot to look for
I feel like I’ll never look for anything again
Everyone’s looking into the spotlight
We’re hiding backstage in the folds
All of this, no one knows this story
At least it never was well told
But with a beauty like that
In a situation like this
We could try to explain forever
But we’d never do it justice
You have it all
The green light, the floor
You have it all
From the bed to the door
You have it all
From my head to my toes
From my joys to my woes
Like finding something long lost
That you forgot to look for
I feel like I’ll never look for anything again
I’m yours, You have it all
And its just beginning
Because
You, You’re something else.
You’re something else. Something else.
Everyone’s running for the battlefields
You’re pull me by the hand to the shore
We lie in the beach grass just smiling
We almost forget about the war
Have you ever looked at something
Or someone Or nothing
And wished you had a camera
So you could record everything,
the entire moment that’s fleeting
Can you catch five senses in panorama?
Because I’m sitting here looking at the sky
And I can’t help but think about life
When everyone here will eventually die
Love seems like its reckless to try
But you
You have it all
All I’ve wanted, I’ve needed
You have it all
Everything I have, I will give it
You have it all
Everything that I call myself
Because
You, You’re something else.
You’re something else. Something else.
Hey,
Looking all around but when our eyes meet
Can you feel the burning? We’re creating heat
Keep moving closer in time with the beat
I’m giving it all and its all yours for keeps
But You have it all
All I’ve wanted, I’ve needed
You have it all
Everything I have, I will give it
You have it all
Everything that I call myself
Because
You, You’re something else.
You’re something else.
Looking all around but when our eyes mee
You’re something. Something else.
Keep moving closer in time with the beat
You’re something else.
Everyone’s looking into the spotlight
You’re something. Something else.
All of this, no one knows this story
You’re something else.
