The Hits - Chapter One

You are my fire

The one desire

Believe when I say

I want it that way

But we are two worlds apart

Can't reach to your heart

When you say

That I want it that way

CHORUS

TELL ME WHY

AIN'T NOTHIN' BUT A HEARTACHE

TELL ME WHY

AIN'T NOTHIN' BUT A MISTAKE

TELL ME WHY

I NEVER WANNA HEAR YOU SAY

I WANT IT THAT WAY

Am I your fire

Your one desire

Yes I know it's too late

But I want it that way

CHORUS - repeat

Now I can see that we've fallen apart

From the way that it used to be, yeah

No matter the distance

I want you to know that

Deep down inside of me

You are my fire

The one desire

You are, you are, you are, you are

Don't wanna hear you say...

Ain't nothin' but a heartache

Ain't nothin' but a mistake

I wanna hear you say

I never wanna hear you say

I want it that way

CHORUS - repeat

Everybody

Rock your body

Everybody

Rock your body right

Backstreet's Back alright

Oh my God we're back again

Brothers, sisters, everybody sing

We're gonna bring you the flavor show you how

I've got a gotta question for ya

Better answer now

Pre-chorus

Am I original? (yeah)

Am I the only one? (yeah)

Am I sexual? (yeah)

Am I everything you need?

You better rock your body now

Chorus

EVERYBODY

ROCK YOUR BODY

EVERYBODY

ROCK YOUR BODY RIGHT

BACKSTREET'S BACK ALRIGHT

Now throw your hands up in the air

And wave' em around like you just don't care

If you wanna party let me hear you yell

'Cause we've got it goin'on again

Pre-chorus

Chorus

So everybody, everywhere

Don't be afraid, don't have no fear

Gonna tell the world, make it understand

As long as there I'll be music we'll be coming back again.

Chorus

Although loneliness has always

Been a friend of mine

I'm leaving my life in your hands

People say I'm crazy and that I am blind

Risking it all in a glance

How you got me blind is still a mystery

I can't get you out of my head

Don't care what is written in your history

As long as you here with me

Chorus

I DON'T CARE WHO YOU ARE

WHERE YOU'RE FROM

WHAT YOU DID

AS LONG AS YOU LOVE ME

WHO YOU ARE

WHERE YOU'RE FROM

DON'T CARE WHAT YOU DID

AS LONG AS YOU LOVE ME

Every little thing that you have said and done

Feels like it's deep within me

Doesn't really matter if you're on the run

It seems like we're meant to be

Chorus

Bridge

I've tried to hide it so that no one knows

But I guess it shows

When you look into my eyes

What you did and where you're comin' from

I don't care, as long as you love me, baby.

Chorus.

(Max Martin/Herbert Crichlow)

Show me the meaning of being lonely

So many words for the broken heart

It's hard to see in a crimson love

So hard to breathe

Walk with me, and maybe

Nights of light so soon become

Wild and free I could feel the sun

Your every wish will be done

They tell me...

CHORUS

SHOW ME THE MEANING OF BEING LONELY

IS THIS THE FEELING I NEED TO WALK WITH

TELL ME WHY I CAN'T BE THERE WHERE YOU ARE

THERE'S SOMETHING MISSING IN MY HEART

Life goes on as it never ends

Eyes of stone observe the trends

They never say forever gaze

Guilty roads to an endless love

There's no control

Are you with me now

Your every wish will be done

They tell me

CHORUS - repeat

There's nowhere to run

I have no place to go

Surrender my heart' body and soul

How can it be you're asking me to feel the things you never show

You are missing in my heart

Tell me why I can't be there where you are

CHORUS - repeat

Even in my heart I see

You're not being true to me

Deep within my soul I feel

Nothing's like it used to be

Sometimes I wish I could

Turn back time

Impossible as it may seem

But I wish I could so bad baby

Chorus

QUIT PLAYING GAMES WITH MY HEART

BEFORE YOU TEAR US APART

I SHOULD HAVE KNOWN FROM THE START

YOU KNOW YOU'VE GOTTA STOP

YOU'RE TEARING US APART

QUIT PLAYING GAMES WITH MY HEART

I live my life the way

To keep you coming back to me

Everything I do is for you

So what is it that you can't see

Sometimes I wish I could

Turn back time

Impossible as it may seem

But I wish I could so bad, baby

You better

Quit playing games with my heart

Chorus

Quit playing games ...

Baby, baby the love that we had was so strong

Don't leave me hangin' here forever

Oh baby, baby this is not a lie

Let's stop this tonight

Baby, quit playing games...

Sometimes I wish I could

Turn back time

Impossible as it may seem

But I wish I could so bad, baby...

Chorus

Everybody groove to the music

Everybody jam

We've been waiting so long

Just can't hold it back no more

Creepin' up and down now

It's time for me to let it go

If you really wanna see

What we can do for you

Send the crazy wildin' static

Sing it

Chorus

JAM 'CAUSE BACKSTREET'S GOT IT

COME NOW EVERYBODY

WE'VE GO IT GOIN' ON FOR YEARS

JAM 'CAUSE BACKSTREET'S GOT IT

COME NOW EVERYBODY

WE'VE GO IT GOIN' ON FOR YEARS

Well I'm creepin' up on your left

Straight up funky when I get with you

I get ruthless when I get wet

Keep the party packed in my corner

Tough like to keep the crowd hype

Get up on this just to get right

What you want is what you're gonna get

Backstreet's got the special effects

If you really wanna see

What we can do for you

Send the crazy wildin' static

If you really wanna see

What we can do for you

Send the crazy wildin' static

Chorus

Bridge

We've been waiting so long

Just can't hold it back no more

Creepin' up and down

It's time for me to let it go

Chorus

We've got it goin' on

I don't know what he does to make you cry

But I'll be there to make you smile.

I don't have a fancy car

To get to you I'd walk a thousands miles

I don't care if he buys you nice things

Does his gifts come from the heart - I don't know

But if you were my girl...

I'd make it so we'd never be apart

Chorus

BUT MY LOVE IS ALL I HAVE TO GIVE

WITHOUT YOU I DON'T THINK I CAN LIVE

I WISH I COULD GIVE THE WORLD TO YOU...BUT

LOVE IS ALL I HAVE TO GIVE

When you talk - does it seem like he's not

Even listening to a word you say?

That's okay babe, just tell me your problems

I'll try me best to kiss them all away...

Does he leave when you need him the most?

Does his friends get all your time?

Baby please... I'm on my knees

Praying for the day that you'll be mine!!

Chorus

Bridge

Hey, girl, I don't want you cry no more - inside

All the money in the world could never add up to

All the love I have inside... I love you

Bass Break

And I will give you it to you

All I can give, all I can give

Everything I have is for you

But love is all I have to give

Drum Break & chorus 3x and out

But my love is all I have to give

Without you I don't think I can live

I wish I could give the world to you...but

Love is all I have to give... To you.

(Max Martin/Kristian Lundin/Brian Littrell)

I may run and hide

When you're screamin' my name, alright

But let me tell you now

There are prices to fame, alright

All of our time spent in flashes of light

Chorus

ALL YOU PEOPLE CAN'T YOU SEE, CAN'T YOU SEE

HOW YOUR LOVE'S AFFECTING OUR REALITY

EVERY TIME WE'RE DOWN

YOU CAN MAKE IT RIGHT

AND THAT MAKES YOU LARGER THAN LIFE

Looking at the crowd

And I see your body sway, c'mon

Wishin' I could thank you in a different way, c'mon

'Cause all of your time spent keeps us alive

Chorus - repeat

All of your time spent keeps us alive

Chorus - repeat

Yeah, every time we're down

Yeah, you can make it right

Yeah, and that's what makes you larger than life

Chorus - repeat

Phone rings girl picks up

Girl: "Hello?"

AJ: "Hi it's me what's up baby? I'm sorry listen I'm gonna be late tonight so don't stay up and wait for me ok?"

Girl: "Where are you?"

AJ: "Say that again... you're really dropping out... I think my battery must be low...listen, if you can hear me, we're going to a place nearby alright... gotta go!"

Let me tell you the story 'bout the call that changed my destiny

Me and my boys went out just to end up in misery

Was about to go home when there she was standing in front of me

I said hi, I got a little place nearby, wanna go?

I should've said no, someone's waiting for me

But I called my girl up and said...

Chorus

LISTEN BABY I'M SORRY

JUST WANNA TELL YOU DON'T WORRY

I WILL BE LATE, DON'T STAY UP AND WAIT FOR ME

SAY AGAIN... YOU'RE DROPPING OUT... MY BATTERY IS LOW

JUST SO YOU KNOW, WE'RE GOING TO A PLACE NEARBY

GOTTA GO!

Now two years gone, nothing gets won

I can't take it back, what's done is done

One of her friends found out that she wasn't my only one

And it eats me from inside that she's not by my side

Just because I made that call and lied

Chorus 1x

Let me tell you the story 'bout the call that changed my destiny

Me and my boys went out just to end up in misery

Was about to go home when there she was standing there in front of me

I said hi, I got a little place nearby... gotta go!

Chorus 2x

Sound of phone hanging up

Baby, please try to forgive me

Stay here don't put out the glow

Hold me now don't bother

If every minute it makes me weaker

You can save me from the man that I've become oh yeah

Chorus:

LOOKING BACK ON THE THINGS I'VE DONE

I WAS TRYING TO BE SOMEONE

PLAYED MY PART, KEPT YOU IN THE DARK

NOW LET ME SHOW YOU THE SHAPE OF MY HEART

Sadness is beautiful, loneliness is tragical

So help me I can't win this war oh no

Touch me now don't bother

If every second it makes me weaker

You can save me from the man I've become

Chorus 1x

Bridge:

I'm here with my confession

Got nothing to hide no more

I don't know where to start

But to show you the shape of my heart

I'm looking back on things I've done

I never wanna play the same old part

Keep you in the dark

Now let me show you the shape of my heart

Chorus 2x

Show you the shape of my heart...

(Max Martin/Brian Littrell)

I'll be the one...

I guess you were lost when I met you

Still there were tears in your eyes

So out of trust and I knew

No more than mysteries and lies

There you were, wild and free

Reachin' out like you needed me

A helping hand to make it right

I am holding you all through the night

CHORUS

I'LL BE THE ONE

WHO WILL MAKE ALL YOUR SORROWS UNDONE

I'LL BE THE LIGHT

WHEN YOU FEEL LIKE THERE'S NOWHERE TO RUN

I'LL BE THE ONE...

To hold you and make sure that you'll be alright

'Cause my faith is gone

And I want to take you from darkness to light

There you were, wild and free

Reachin' out like you needed me

A helping hand to make it right

I am holding you all through the night

CHORUS - repeat

You need me like I need you

We can share our dreams comin' true

I can show you what true love means

Just take my hand, baby please

I'll be the one

I'll be the light

Where you can run

To make it alright

I'll be the one

I'll be the light

Where you can run

CHORUS - repeat

I'll be the one

I'll be the light

Where you can run

To make it alright

I'll be the one

I'll be the light

Where you can run

To make it all right

I'll be the one

To hold you

And make sure that you'll be alright

I'll be the one

Franciz & LePont/Adam Anders

I can see that you've been crying

You can't hide it with a lie

What's the use in you denying

The words you have at home

I heard him promise you forever

But forevers come and go

Baby he would say whatever

It takes to keep you alive

Tell the truth between the lines

Chorus:

OH I WILL LOVE YOU MORE THAN THAT

I WON'T SAY THOSE WORDS, THEN TAKE THEM BACK

DON'T GIVE LONELINESS A CHANCE

BABY LISTEN TO ME WHEN I SAY

I WILL LOVE YOU MORE THAN THAT

Baby you deserve much better

What's the use in holding on

Don't you see it's now or never

Just why you can't be friends

Baby knowing in the end

Chorus 1x

Bridge:

There's not a day that passes by

I don't wonder why we haven't tried

It's not too late to change your mind

And take my hand, don't say goodbye

Chorus 2x

Don't pretend you're sorry

I know you're not

You know you got the power

To make me weak inside

Girl you leave me breathless

But it's okay 'cause

You are my survival

Now hear me say

I can't imagine life

Without your love

Even forever don't seem

Like long enough

CHORUS

'CAUSE EVERYTIME I BREATHE

I TAKE YOU IN

AND MY HEART BEATS AGAIN

BABY I CAN'T HELP IT

YOU KEEP ME

DROWNING IN YOUR LOVE

EVERYTIME I TRY TO RISE ABOVE

I'M SWEPT AWAY BY LOVE

BABY I CAN'T HELP IT

YOU KEEP ME

DROWNING IN YOUR LOVE

Maybe I'm a drifter

Maybe not

'Cause I long for the safety

Of flowing freely

In your arms

I don't need another lover

It's not for me

'Cause only you can save me

Oh can't you see

I can't imagine life

Without your love

And even forever don't seem

Like long enough

Chorus 1x

Bridge

Go on and pull me under

Cover me with dreams, yeah

Love me mouth to mouth now

You know I can't resist

'Cause you're the air

That I breathe

Chorus 1x

Baby I can't help it

Keep me drowning

In your love

I keep drowning

In your love

Baby I can't help it

Can't help it no, no

Chorus 1x

Spoken

Girl, I know you're hurting

Right now you feel like

You could never love again

Now all I ask is for a chance

To prove that I love you

From the first day that I saw your smiling face

Honey, I knew that we would be together forever

Ooh and I asked you out, you said no

But I found out

Darling, that you'd been hurt

You felt that you'd never love again

I deserve a try, honey, just once

Give me a chance and I'll prove this all wrong

You walked in you were so quick to judge

But honey, he's nothing like me

Chorus

I'LL NEVER BREAK YOUR HEART

I'LL NEVER MAKE YOU CRY

I'D RATHER DIE, THAN LIVE WITHOUT YOU

I'LL GIVE YOU ALL OF ME

HONEY THAT'S NO LIE

I'LL NEVER BREAK YOUR HEART

I'LL NEVER MAKE YOU CRY

I'D RATHER DIE, THAN LIVE WITHOUT YOU

I'LL GIVE YOU ALL OF ME

HONEY THAT'S NO LIE

As time goes by you will get to know me

A little more better

Girl that's the way love goes baby, baby

And I know your afraid to let

Your feelings show

And I understand

But girl it's time to let go

Girl it's time to let go

I deserve a try honey, just once

Give me chance and I'll prove this all wrong

You walked in you were so quick to judge

But honey he's nothing like me

Darling, why can't you see

Chorus

I'd go anywhere for you

Anywhere you ask me to

I'd do anything for you

Anything you want me to

I'd walk halfway around the world

For just one kiss from you

Far beyond the call of love

The sun the stars the moon

As long as your love's there to lead me

I won't lose my way believe me

Even through the darkest night you know

Chorus

I'D GO ANYWHERE FOR YOU

ANYWHERE YOU ASK ME TO

I'D DO ANYTHING FOR YOU

ANYTHING YOU WANT ME TO

YOUR LOVE AS FAR AS I CAN SEE

IS ALL I'M EVER GONNA NEED

THERE'S ONE THING FOR SURE

I KNOW IT'S TRUE

I KNOW IT'S TRUE

BABY I'D GO ANYWHERE FOR YOU

I used to think that dreams were just

For sentimental fools

And I'd never find someone

Who'd give their love so true

But I knew the very minute

Couldn't live my love without you in it

Now I want the whole wide world to know

Chorus

Hey baby hey baby hey baby (Nah Ooh )

Hey baby hey baby hey baby (Nah Ooh )

Chorus
