[Verse 1]
I woke up this morning
With the burning of love hanging over my head
As I walked into the living room
Sit with you
Discuss what's going on

[Pre-Chorus]
Is it me?
Is it you?
Is it something I forgot to do?
Oh, tell me so that I understand

[Chorus]
I just need some time
Gather all my thoughts
To make up for the love I just lost
You've been so good to me
Given me everything
Take what you want 'cause it doesn't belong to me

[Verse 2]
I woke up this morning with a hurting
That I would never ever wish upon
Even my worst enemy
Who is she?
What the hell do you people want?

[Pre-Chorus]
Is it me?
Is it you?
Is it something I forgot to do?
Oh, tell me so that I understand

[Chorus 2]
Oh, I just need some time
Gather all my thoughts
To make up for the love I just lost
You've been so good to me
Given me everything
Take what you want 'cause it doesn't belong to me anyway

[Bridge]
Oh, oh
Hey, hey
Oh, oh yeah, yeah, yeah'
Oh

[Chorus]
I just need some time
Gather all my thoughts
To make up for the love I just lost
You've been so good to me
Given me everything
Take what you want 'cause it doesn't belong to me
I just need some time
Gather all my thoughts
To make up for the love I just lost
You've been so good to me
Given me everything
Take what you want 'cause it doesn't belong to me

Maroon 5 is an American pop rock band. They were originally formed in 1994 as Kara’s Flowers while they were still attending high school. They signed to Reprise Records and released an album, The Fourth World, in 1997. After a mediocre response to the album, the band parted with their record label and attended college, but in 2001, the band regrouped, added James Valentine to the lineup, and pursued a new direction under the name Maroon 5.

Their first big hit came in the form of “Harder to Breathe,” the edgier lead single from their debut, Songs About Jane. The continued success of that song and other singles “This Love,” “She Will Be Loved,” and “Sunday Morning” cemented the quintet as a pop-rock band to keep an eye out for.

However, for their second album, It Won’t Be Soon Before Long, they switched to ambing up on slick pop production—and it worked for them. Lead single “Makes Me Wonder” jumped 63 places in one week to reach number one, becoming their first ever #1 single.
