[Verse 1: Liam & Harry & Niall]
From the moment I met you, everything changed
I knew I had to get you, whatever the pain
I had to take you and make you mine
Take you and make you mine
I would walk through the desert, I would walk down the aisle
I would swim all the oceans, just to see you smile
Whatever it takes is fine
Whatever it takes is fine

[Chorus: All & Harry]
Oh oh oh oh oh
So put your hands up
Oh oh oh oh oh
'Cause it's a stand up
I won't be leaving 'til I finished stealing
Every piece of your heart, every piece of your heart

[Verse 2: Louis & Niall]
I know your heart's been broken, but don't you give up
I'll be there, yeah, I know it to fix you with love
It hurts me to think that you've ever cried
(You've ever cried)

[Chorus: All & Harry]
Oh oh oh oh oh
So put your hands up
Oh oh oh oh oh
'Cause it's a stand up
I won't be leaving 'til I finished stealing
Every piece of your heart, every piece of your heart
Oh oh oh oh oh
So put your hands up
Oh oh oh oh oh
'Cause it's a stand up
I won't be leaving 'til I finished stealing
Every piece of your heart

[Bridge: Zayn & All & Niall & (Harry)]
And I will steal us a car
And we will drive to the stars
I will give you the moon, it's the least I can do
If you give me the chance
Oh oh oh oh oh
So put your hands up
Oh oh oh oh oh
'Cause it's a stand up
I'm a thief, I'm a thief
(You can call me a thief)
I'm a thief, I'm a thief
(But you should know your part)
I'm a thief, I'm a thief
(I'm only here)
I'm a thief, I'm a thief
(Because you stole my heart)

[Chorus: All & Harry & Zayn]
Oh oh oh oh oh, I'm a thief, I'm a thief
So put your hands up
Oh oh oh oh oh, I'm a thief, I'm a thief
'Cause it's a stand up
I won't be leaving 'til I finished stealing
Every piece of your heart
'Cause you stole my heart
Oh oh oh oh oh, I'm a thief, I'm a thief
Call me a thief
Oh oh oh oh oh, I'm a thief, I'm a thief
But you should know your part
Oh oh oh oh oh, I'm a thief, I'm a thief
I'm only here
Oh oh oh oh oh, I'm a thief, I'm a thief
'Cause you stole my heart

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.
