[Verse 1: Harry]
If I could fly
I'd be coming right back home to you
I think I might give up everything
Just ask me to

[Pre-Chorus: Liam]
Pay attention, I hope that you listen
'Cause I let my guard down
Right now, I'm completely defenseless

[Chorus: Harry]
For your eyes only, I show you my heart
For when you're lonely and forget who you are
I'm missing half of me when we're apart
Now you know me, for your eyes only
For your eyes only

[Verse 2: Louis]
I've got scars
Even though they can't always be seen
And pain gets hard
But now you're here and I don't feel a thing

[Pre-Chorus: Niall]
Pay attention, I hope that you listen
'Cause I let my guard down
Right now, I'm completely defenseless

[Chorus: All]
For your eyes only, I show you my heart
For when you're lonely and forget who you are
I'm missing half of me when we're apart
Now you know me, for your eyes only
For your eyes only

[Bridge: Louis & Harry & (All)]
I can feel your heart inside of mine
(I feel it, I feel it)
I've been going out of my mind
(I feel it, I feel it)
Know that I'm just wasting time, and I
Hope that you don't run from me

[Breakdown: Louis & Niall & (Harry) & Liam & (All)]
For your eyes only
I show you my heart
(For when you're lonely)
And forget who you are
(I'm missing half of me)
(When we're apart
Now you know me, for your eyes only)

[Chorus: All]
For your eyes only, I show you my heart
For when you're lonely and forget who you are
I'm missing half of me when we're apart
Now you know me, for your eyes only

[Outro: All & (Harry)]
For your eyes only
(For your eyes only)

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.
