[Verse 1: Brian & Nick]
I won't tell nobody
I'll just scream it in my mind
Nothing good in life is scripted
It's not like we predicted
That the one you want
Is gonna be the one you thought
I won't tell nobody
But I won't live like a prisoner
Nothing has to be so perfect
Can you tell me was it worth it?
'Cause her heart can't lie
And even though her face may try
Love will keep you up all night

[Chorus: Nick with Howie]
'Cause love will keep you up all night
It's not something you can decide
One day you're all alone
The next you're crying on the phone
Love will keep you up all night
You gotta taste the sweet divine
It took you to the other side
Love will keep you up all night

[Verse 2: Brian, AJ & All]
If I don't tell a living soul
Still everyone would know
Yes they would
It's always 3 AM somewhere
You know it when you get there
Some people try to cover it up
Some people think it's never enough
(Never enough)

[Chorus: AJ with All, Nick]
Oh, love will keep you up all night
It's not something you can decide
One day, you're all alone
The next, you're crying on the phone
Love will keep you up all night
You gotta taste the sweet divine
Took you to the other side (oh)
Love will keep you up all night, oh-oh!

[Bridge: Nick]
I don't mean to scare you
But everybody has a first time
One day when you're old and gray
Don't look back and never say
You should've tried staying up all night

[Chorus: Nick, AJ with All]
Love will keep you up all night
It's not something you can't decide
One day you're all alone
The next you're crying on the phone
Love will keep you up all night
You gotta taste the sweet divine
It took you to the other side
To the other side (oh-oh!)
Love will keep you up all night
It's not something you can't decide
One day you're all alone
Next you're crying, you're crying
Love will keep you up all night (all night)
You gotta taste the sweet divine
It took you to the other side
Love will keep you up all night

[Outro: AJ with Nick]
Love will keep you up all night
Love will keep you up all night

The Backstreet Boys are the most successful boy band in history, having sold over 130 million records worldwide, and with their first nine albums reaching the top 10 on the Billboard 200. Florida natives A. J. McLean, Howie Dorough, and Nick Carter, along with Kentucky transplant Kevin Richardson, were joined in a band once they attended Lou Pearlman’s auditions for a vocal group in 1992, with the group being completed by Kevin’s cousin Brian Litrell. Once took under the wing of Swedish producer Max Martin in 1995, the stage was set for global domination, attracting the lust of women and the anger of men. While the fad died down and Kevin even left for a while, the band never officially took a break or such.
