[Verse 1: Liam]
It feels like we've been living in fast forward
Another moment passing by (Up, up, up all night)
The party's ending, but it's now or never
Nobody's going home tonight (Up, up, up all night)

[Pre-Chorus: Harry]
Katy Perry's on replay, she's on replay
DJ got the floor to shake, the floor to shake
People going all the way, yeah, all the way
I'm still wide awake

[Chorus: Harry & All]
I wanna stay
Up all night and jump around until we see the sun
I wanna stay up all night and find a girl and tell her she's the one
Hold on to the feeling and don't let it go
'Cause we got the floor now, get out of control
I wanna stay up all night and do it all with you
Up, up, up all night like this, all night, hey
Up all night like this, all night, hey, up all night

[Verse 2: Zayn]
Don't even care about the table breaking
We only wanna have a laugh (Up, up, up all night)
I'm only thinking 'bout this girl I'm seeing
I hope she'll wanna kiss me back (Up, up, up all night)

[Pre-Chorus: Harry]
Katy Perry's on replay, she's on replay
DJ got the floor to shake, the floor to shake
People going all the way, yeah, all the way
I'm still wide awake

[Chorus: Harry & All]
I wanna stay
Up all night and jump around until we see the sun
I wanna stay up all night and find a girl and tell her she's the one
Hold on to the feeling and don't let it go
'Cause we got the floor now, get out of control
I wanna stay up all night and do it all with you
Up, up, up all night like this, all night, hey
Up all night like this, all night, hey, up all night

[Bridge: Harry & All]
Katy Perry's on replay, she's on replay
We're gonna wanna stay up all night
DJ got the floor to shake, the floor to shake (Up all night, up all night)
We're gonna wanna stay up all night
Up all night, up all night
We're gonna wanna stay up all night

[Chorus: Harry & All & Zayn]
I wanna stay
Up all night and jump around until we see the sun
I wanna stay up all night and find a girl and tell her she's the one
Hold on to the feeling and don't let it go
'Cause we got the floor now, get out of control
I wanna stay up all night and do it all with you
Up, up, up all night like this, all night, hey
Up all night like this, all night, hey, up all night (Up all night)

One Direction was an English-Irish pop band based in London, consisting of Niall Horan, Liam Payne, Harry Styles, Louis Tomlinson, and previously Zayn Malik. They signed with Simon Cowell’s record label Syco Records after being formed and finishing third in the seventh series of the British televised singing competition The X Factor in 2010. Check out their journey on the competition here.

Propelled to international success by the power of social media, their two albums Up All Night and Take Me Home, released in 2011 and 2012 respectively, broke several records, topped the charts of most major markets, and generated hit singles, including “What Makes You Beautiful” and “Live While We’re Young.”

Their third album, Midnight Memories, introduced a maturing sound. Singles including “Best Song Ever” and “Story of My Life” became smash hits. The music video for “Best Song Ever” even broke the one-day Vevo record, racking up 10.9 million views in 24 hours.
