[Verse 1: Harry]
Hey angel, do you know the reasons why
We look up to the sky?
Hey angel, do you look at us and laugh
When we hold on to the past?
Hey angel

[Chorus: Louis]
Oh, I wish I could be more like you
Do you wish you could be more like me?
Oh, I wish I could be more like you
Do you wish you could be more like me?

[Verse 2: Harry]
Hey angel, tell me do you ever try
To come to the other side?
Hey angel
Tell me, do you ever cry when we waste away our lives?

[Chorus: Niall]
Oh, I wish I could be more like you
Do you wish you could be more like me?
Oh, I wish I could be more like you
Oh, I wish I could be more, I could be more, I could be more

[Bridge: Liam & Liam, Louis & Harry]
Yeah, I see you at the bar, at the edge of my bed
Backseat of my car, in the back of my head
I come alive when I hear your voice
It's a beautiful sound, it's a beautiful noise
I see you at the bar, at the edge of my bed
Backseat of my car, in the back of my head
I come alive when I hear your voice
It's a beautiful sound, it's a beautiful noise (Beautiful noise)
Hey angel
Hey angel
Do you look up to the sky?
Do you look up to the sky?

[Chorus: All & Harry]
Oh, I wish I could be more like you
Do you wish you could be more like me? (To be more like me)
Oh, I wish I could be more like you (Do ya? Do ya?)
Do you wish you could be more like me?
Hey angel
Hey angel

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.
