[Verse 1: Liam]
Shut the door, turn the light off
I wanna be with you, I wanna feel your love
I wanna lay beside you
I cannot hide this, even though I try
Heart beats harder, time escapes me
Trembling hands touch skin
It makes this harder
And the tears stream down my face

[Pre-Chorus: Harry]
If we could only have this life for one more day
If we could only turn back time

[Chorus: All]
You know I'll be your life, your voice
Your reason to be my love, my heart
Is breathing for this moment, in time
I'll find the words to say before you leave me today

[Verse 2: Niall & Louis]
Close the door, throw the key
Don't wanna be reminded, don't wanna be seen
Don't wanna be without you
My judgement's clouded like tonight's sky
Hands are silent, voice is numb
Try to scream out, my lungs
It makes this harder
And the tears stream down my face

[Pre-Chorus: Harry]
If we could only have this life for one more day
If we could only turn back time

[Chorus: All]
You know I'll be your life, your voice
Your reason to be my love, my heart
Is breathing for this moment, in time
I'll find the words to say before you leave me today

[Bridge: Zayn]
Flashing lights in my mind, going back to the time
Playing games in the street, kicking balls with my feet
There's a numb in my toes, standing close to the edge
There's a pile of my clothes at the end of your bed
As I feel myself fall, make a joke of it all

[Chorus: All]
You know I'll be your life, your voice
Your reason to be my love, my heart
Is breathing for this moment, in time
I'll find the words to say before you leave me today
You know I'll be your life, your voice
Your reason to be my love, my heart
Is breathing for this moment, in time
I'll find the words to say before you leave me today

One Direction

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.
