[Intro Whistling]

[Verse 1]
I promise that one day I'll be around
I'll keep you safe, I'll keep you sound
Right now it's pretty crazy
And I don't know how to stop or slow it down

[Pre-Chorus]
Hey, I know there are some things we need to talk about
And I can't stay, just let me hold you for a little longer now

[Chorus]
Take a piece of my heart and make it all your own
So when we are apart, you'll never be alone, you'll never be alone

[Verse 2]
You'll never be alone
When you miss me close your eyes
I may be far, but never gone
When you fall asleep tonight, just remember that we lay under the same stars

[Pre-Chorus]
And hey, I know there are some things we need to talk about
And I can't stay, just let me hold you for a little longer now

[Chorus]
And take a piece of my heart and make it all your own
So when we are apart, you'll never be alone, you'll never be alone

[Bridge]
You'll never be alone, you'll never be alone
You'll never be alone, you'll never be alone

[Chorus]
And take a piece of my heart and make it all your own
So when we are apart, you'll never be alone, you will never be alone

He officially signed with Island Records in May 2014 and released his first single “Life of the Party” on June 26, 2014. His debut album Handwritten, which included hit single “Stitches”, reached the top 10 in the U.S. and Canada, and number one in the UK. He went to re-release that album under Handwritten Revisted with four new tracks, including collaboration with Fifth Harmony member Camila Cabello, “I Know What You Did Last Summer.”

His second studio album Illuminate delivered three hit “Treat You Better”, “Mercy”, and “There’s Nothing Holdin' Me Back”.
