"Something Worth Saving" (2016)

She Sets The City On Fire lyrics - Gavin DeGraw

Everybody knows she's a perfect ten
And I'm hanging on tight til the whole thing ends
Cause New York sky don't get much brighter
She sets, she sets the city on fire

Somebody told me if I'm not careful
Well, this one's gonna roll me
I got my hands full and this one's gonna own me and control me
I'm so mystified
She caught the last train last night, left another note
Saying "see you next time; miss me if you don't"
You look good in your bed; til we meet again
You went through my head and nobody told me so

Everybody knows she's a perfect ten
And I'm hanging on tight til the whole thing ends
Cause New York sky don't get much brighter
She sets, she sets the city on fire
She sets the city on fire
Burns like a million lighters
I'm going up, I couldn't get much higher
She sets, she sets the city on fire

New scene, next block
She'll be jaywalking right across while the cops talk
Make you feel like a boss when your eyes lock
And you can't stop staring endlessly
She got the whole thing figured out; hits me where it hurts
And I know I might be swinging at a curve
I don't mind it, though, when the lights are low
She can hit the notes wearing my T-shirt

Everybody knows she's a perfect ten
And I'm hanging on tight til the whole thing ends
Cause New York sky don't get much brighter
She sets, she sets the city on fire
She sets the city on fire
Burns like a million lighters
I'm going up, I couldn't get much higher
She sets, she sets the city on fire

But I don't know if I'm chasing ghosts
Put my hand in the flame of a flickering lighter
Again and again, I was lucky just to find her
But I don't know if I'm chasing ghosts
Put my hand in the flame of a flickering lighter
Again and again, I was lucky

Everybody knows she's a perfect ten
And I'm hanging on tight til the whole thing ends
Cause New York sky don't get much brighter
She sets, she sets the city on fire
She sets the city on fire
Burns like a million lighters
I'm going up, I couldn't get much higher
She sets, she sets the city on fire

I'm going up, I couldn't get much higher
She sets, she sets the city on fire

You Make My Heart Sing Louder lyrics - Gavin DeGraw

I can hear it coming, feel it inside my bones
Oh, take me now, to the lake of fire
All of the hearts I have broken, hard as a rolling stone
Oh, it comes around, when you're out of time

This town I left for dead,
heart stopped, I had reached the end
That's when you raised my head
And led me into the light
Walked me to the waterfall,
slowly you removed it all
Set free my well and wall
you brought me back to life

'Cause you make my heart sing louder, high as the Eiffel Tower
And in the midnight hour, you give my love that power

When you would take me over, show me I'm not alone
You say that needing help, don't mean you not strong
Soon as the sky is falling and all that I had is gone
Oh, I fear no hell since you came along

This town I left for dead,
heart stopped, I had reached the end
That's when you raised my head
And led me into the light
Hey, walked me to the waterfall,
slowly you removed it all
Set free my well and wall
you brought me back to life

'Cause you make my heart sing louder, high as the Eiffel Tower
And in the midnight hour, you give my love that power

You're lifting me up and setting me free
Showing me something I could believe
Giving me hope you know that I need
And I am blinded, by it
Open my heart I gave you my soul
Gave you permission, gave you control
Show me the world that I didn't know
Let me inside it, inside it

'Cause you make my heart sing louder, high as the Eiffel Tower
And in the midnight hour, you give my love that power

Na, na na, na
Na, na na, na
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Na, na na, na
Na na na, na

Kite Like Girl lyrics - Gavin DeGraw

Some girls want bright diamonds
Some girls wanna stick like glue
Not her, no, she's a little different
She ain't into things everybody seems to lose
This girl's got her own reputation
Everybody's got somethin' to prove
She said "Don't you know what I'm thinkin'?
A little bit of me and a whole lot of you"

So free, you know what i mean
Somethings you just can't keep

She might take her coat off
Tell you that she's gonna stay, yeah
Lay you down and float off
She's a kite like girl, you gotta let her fly away, hey
Let her fly away
She's a kite like girl, you gotta let her fly away, hey

She's as light as a feather
But she'll kick off of her cloud
Got nothin' to do with the weather
When you're wakin' up alone and she's nowhere to be found
We all wanna live in the moment
Always talkin' 'bout the here and the now
New bucks sellin' old religion
She's still the only one knowin' what I talk about

So free, you know what i mean
Somethings you just can't keep

She might take her coat off
Tell you that she's gonna stay, yeah
Lay you down and float off
She's a kite like girl, you gotta let her fly away, hey
Let her fly away
She's a kite like girl, you gotta let her fly away, hey

And if she takes you to the top, don't look down
This girl is not that innocent
And if she's lettin' you drop, there'll be no sound
She'll be playin' your heart, are you listenin'?

She might take her coat off
Tell you that she's gonna stay, yeah
Lay you down and float off
She's a kite like girl, you gotta let her fly away, hey
Let her fly away, yeah
She's a kite like girl

With a kite like girl, you gotta let her fly away

Making Love With The Radio On lyrics - Gavin DeGraw

I tried giving up
Walked through quite enough
Had to call it a day
From an ex who showed up falling to
Grand piano falling on the edge of the parkway
Got no good advice
Hotline called me twice
Said, "I went through the wall
Do you have a quote to lend me
Or a friend to send me?"
But I got no help at all

So I loosened my lips
And let a little prayer I memorized
Do what I just wished
And suddenly, to my surprise

Oh, DJ, when you play my song
Make me feel bigger than an old King Kong
At the risk of this coming out wrong
Feel like making love with the radio on
Oh, every time I hear that jam
Grabbed my baby right by her hand
Even if my day was going all wrong
Feel like making love with the radio on

Snatched my medicine
Light it like Edison
Turned it right up to the sky
You're my absolutely fictional
Pure perfection
My Venetian boat ride
Blown out speakers
And worn out tweeters
And still I get the effect
If you got my go-to living
[?] me in the spirit
Even if I'm a complete wreck

Don't you call it a flaw
Everybody needs some a peace of mind
It should be the law
To take a little private time

Oh, DJ, when you play my song
Make me feel bigger than an old King Kong
At the risk of this coming out wrong
Feel like making love with the radio on
Oh, every time I hear that jam
Grabbed my baby right by her hand
Even if my day was going all wrong
Feel like making love with the radio on

I want to feel like this, so hold me forever
Emotions are real like this and flow like a river
And you are the only one

Oh, DJ, when you play my song
Make me feel bigger than an old King Kong
At the risk of this coming out wrong
Feel like making love with the radio on

Oh, every time I hear that sound
Engine running and I'm homeward bound
Even if my day was going all wrong
Feel like making love with the radio on

With the radio, with the radio
Feel like making love with the radio on
With the radio, with the radio
Feel like making love with the radio on
With the radio, with the radio
With the radio on
With the radio, with the radio

Harder To Believe lyrics - Gavin DeGraw

Back of your house, back of your neck
Goodbye to the innocence
I said, "Goodbye, I have no regrets
We're just living on a dream"

Headstrong and a sugars tough
I got beat down and I drank too much
Got run over at the 911,
but I, I'm still alive

To tell you the truth,
I can't remember all the details
The hell I walked through,
left me shirtless in the night

You only see what I reveal
My clothes, my phone, my home, my automobile
Just take my word, you wouldn't think
But there's more to my story, that you can't dream
I could let the words just fall out while you're listening to me
But the truth just makes it harder to believe

Letting me in, leading me on
Who knows where it's coming from
One go and it's just begun,
but I, I'm closing in

To tell you the truth,
I can't remember all the details
The hell I walked through,
left me shirtless in the night

You only see what I reveal
My clothes, my phone, my home, my automobile
Just take my word, you wouldn't think
But there's more to my story, that you can't dream
I could let the words just fall out while you're listening to me
But the truth just makes it harder to believe

I wanted it so bad, more than I could really say
Nothing got in my way, oh woah, oh woah
But only you get there, you're waiting for the shoe to drop
All I'm saying is I just couldn't stop

Let it fall out
You only see what I reveal
My clothes, my phone, my home, my automobile, yeah
Just take my word, you wouldn't think
But there's more to my story, that you can't dream
I could let the words just fall out while you're listening to me
Said I'll let the words just fall out, while you're listening to me
But the truth just makes it harder to believe

Say I Am lyrics - Gavin DeGraw

One way, one way to the center of your heart
Slow down, the world is too loud and this loneliness too hard
We should let it out, just to be closer
Well, I need you now, over and over

We could stay up in the Sunday room
As we share these words unspoken
When you ask me if I'm in love with you
I would say you must be joking
I would say I, I would say I am

Slowly, show me what you hold and what you hide
Tell me that you really believe and I'll see it in your eyes
But when you've hurt so much, you're scared to get closer
You can let it out, over and over

We could stay up in the Sunday room
As we share these words unspoken
When you ask me if I'm in love with you
I would say you must be joking
I would say I, I would say I am

I could show you the river, we'll wash in the water
Give me your faith, there's so many waves

We could stay up in the Sunday room
As we share these words unspoken
When you ask me if I'm in love with you
I would say you must be joking
I would say I, I would say I am
I would say I am
I could show you the river, we could wash in the water

How Lucky Can A Man Get lyrics - Gavin DeGraw

I want you to love me like the first time, yeah
I want you to love me like the sun shines, yeah
Girl, Imma make you feel good
Love you like a red blooded man should
Girl, I wanna love you like the first time

Listen I just wanna tell ya
You got the kiss that I wanna taste
And when we walk by the people all say
How lucky can a man get?
I wanna rock, I wanna roll
God help me, yeah, you save my soul
When you touch me I go losin' control
How lucky can a man get?
Straight to the top
Pot full of gold
Like honey dripping nice and slow
Sweet sugar she's my miracle
How lucky can a man get?

I want you to love me like the first time, yeah
Really keep me guessin' till I, till I cross the line
I take you back to my roots
Kiss you while I'm singin' "Blue Suede Shoes"
Girl, I wanna love you like the first time, oh!

Listen I just wanna tell ya
You got the lips that I wanna taste
And when we walk by the people all say
How lucky can a man get?
I wanna rock, I wanna roll
God help me, yeah, you save my soul
When you touch me I go losin' control
How lucky can a man get?
Straight to the top
Pot full of gold
Like honey dripping nice and slow
Sweet sugar she's my miracle
How lucky can a man get?

In the name of all the love you give me
You're the one to bring out somethin' in me
Shine your light on all the things we could be
We could be
We could be
(Ya, ya, ya, ya, ya)

I wanna rock, I wanna roll (I wanna rock)
God help me, yeah, you save my soul (save my soul)
When you touch me I go losin' control (ooh-hoo)
How lucky can a man get? (can a man get)
Straight to the top
Pot full of gold (oh, straight to the top)
Like honey dripping nice and slow
Sweet sugar she's my miracle (what)
How lucky can a man get? (can a man get)
How lucky can a man get?
How lucky can a man get?
How lucky can a man get?
How lucky can a man get?
How lucky can a man get?
(Can a man get, can a man get, can a man get, can a man get?)

New Love lyrics - Gavin DeGraw

I thought that you were over with it, told me it was time to quit it
Now you're saying you regret it (just a little late)
So listen I was really in love, then I went and found a new drug
Something that was legal enough (just a little late)

One more time I tell you so you know that this is real
One more time I tell you so you know just how I feel
I'll fill you in:

I got a new love, oh what a face, holding it down, she's running the place
I got a new love, talk of the town, I, I, I said it now
I got a new love, just couldn't wait, all of my friends are calling it fate
I got a new love, you might've met, I, I, I'm saying it

You make me feel like going insane, call me every curse you can name
Now you wanting back in the game (just a little late)
Some people never learn how to cope, think everything will come that they hope
Sorry, but the answer is no (just a little late)

One more time I tell you so you know that this is real
One more time I tell you so you know just how I feel
I'll fill you in:

I got a new love, oh what a face, holding it down, she is running the place
I got a new love, talk of the town, I, I, I said it now
I got a new love, just couldn't wait, all of my friends are calling it fate
I got a new love, you might've met, I, I, I'm saying it

No longer need to know, that means no
(Need to know, that means no)
So you don't need to know, need to know
(No you don't)
But you keep asking me, begging me
(Yea, you're asking me, but you're begging me)
Baby please
Be careful what you wish for, this'll only hurt you more

I got a new love, oh what a face, holding it down, she is running the place
I got a new love, talk of the town, I, I, I said it now
I got a new love, just couldn't wait, all of my friends are calling it fate
I got a new love, you might've met, I, I, I'm saying it

I got a new love, you might've met, I, I, I'm saying it

Annalee lyrics - Gavin DeGraw

You fire it up
Dancing around
Knocking back
Knocking down you go all night
All night
Blow em away
Pourin it on
Laugh at the jokes
Sing a few songs you know all right
All right

Gettin all, gettin all, gettin all their attention
Now you're takin em, takin em, takin em for a ride
All right

Oh Annalee, Annalee
Don't you know I'm on to you?
Your eyes are bright as chandeliers
But I see the truth
Your mystery, Annalee
Got them falling from the roof
Hypnotized and paralyzed but
That's nothing new
Annalee, you know that
I'm onto you

Fresh out of jail
Left Santa Fe
Making your rounds out in LA, look at you now, oh wow
They're buying you rings
Giving you cars
It's never enough, you turn their hearts all inside out, side out

Getting all, gettin all, gettin all their attention
Takin em, takin em, takin em for a ride
Every time

Oh Annalee, Annalee
Don't you know I'm on to you?
Your eyes are bright as chandeliers
But I see the truth
Your mystery, Annalee
Got them falling from the roof
Hypnotized and paralyzed but
That's nothing new
Annalee, you know that
I'm onto you

It started with a white lie
You thought it was a good time
Now they got the fever
Oh beep bop ba lulah
Now everybody wants you
But I'm looking right through
And I want to tell you
Get yourself together girl cause nothing lasts forever

Oh Annalee, Annalee
Don't you know I'm on to you?
Your eyes are bright as chandeliers
But I see the truth
Your mystery, Annalee
Got them falling from the roof
Hypnotized and paralyzed but
That's nothing new

Annalee, Annalee...
Annalee, you know that
I'm onto you

Something Worth Saving lyrics - Gavin DeGraw

Sometimes
When I lie awake at night
I think about how far we made it together
We were wild
I knew we would always be
Maybe it's all part of finding our heaven

Even if it breaks your heart
Even if it tears your world apart
Still you keep holding on
If something's worth saving
All of our hopes and fears
They may get tangled but love's sincere
So we keep holding on
To something worth saving
Even if it breaks your heart

My hopes
They only align with yours
They're only as big as we both aim to make them
For love
If I had a thousand lives
I'd find you a thousand times
You know I'd come back again

Even if it breaks your heart
Even if it tears your world apart
Still you keep holding on
If something's worth saving
All of our hopes and fears
They may get tangled but love's sincere
So we keep holding on
To something worth saving
Even if it breaks your heart

How good it could be
I knew it would be somehow
And I know now that it is
Who could imagine
With all that's happened
The names, the fights, the insanely long nights
And I'm standing on top of the world
Yeah
And when the dust settles
You're standing right with me 'cause

Even if it breaks your heart
Even if it tears your world apart
Still you keep holding on
If something's worth saving
All of our hopes and fears
They may get tangled but love's sincere
So we keep holding on
To something worth saving
Even if it breaks your heart

Technicolor lyrics - Gavin DeGraw

Rose colored lenses
Had their intentions lost on me
Love's an illusion
That was my whole philosophy

They say we're creatures of habit
They say people never change
But you rubbed up on my static
Lit a spark and then a flame
Like a disco ball that's spinning
Every time you're in the room
No one shines the way you do

When I laid eyes on you
Everything came to life
Before you
I was all black and white
Now I might never recover
Ever since I met you girl I'm seeing technicolor

Blindsided by you
I wanna buy you everything
I even tried to
Then you replied
Let's start with drinks

So I ordered up a vodka
Something simple something clear
You got something from the tropics
Pink umbrella up to here
You said what's the point of living
If you don't do it in style
I want you to show me how

When I laid eyes on you
Everything came to life
Before you
I was all black and white
Now I might never recover
Ever since I met you girl I'm seeing technicolor

So bright I think I'm about to freak
That's why I'm hiding behind these cheap
Sunglasses, ain't even summer
Ever since I met you girl I'm seeing
Technicolor

Somewhere
In the winds of your air
I wish that I could go to sleep
And never leave
Why don't you meet
Why don't you meet me there

Eyes on you everything came to life
Before you
I was all black and white
Now I might never recover
Ever since I met you girl I'm seeing technicolor
Yeah

So bright I think I'm about to freak
That's why I'm hiding behind these cheap sunglasses, ain't even summer
Ever since I met you girl I'm seeing
Technicolor

Technicolor
Technicolor
Technicolor

Yeah every since I met you girl I'm seeing technicolor

"Make A Move" (2013)

Best I Ever Had lyrics - Gavin DeGraw


Melt Antarctica, savin’ Africa
I failed algebra and I miss you sometimes
We’re at war again, save the world again
You can all join in, but you can’t smoke inside

You said, “Take me home, I can’t stand this place
‘Cause there’s too many hipsters and I just can’t relate.”
You’re my neon gypsy, my desert rain
You’re my “Helter Skelter”, oh how can I explain that

You’re the best I ever had
And I’m trying not to get stuck in my head
But I've read that soda kills you and Jesus saves
On a bathroom wall where I saw your name
You’re the best I ever had
I won’t be the same

Night sky full of drones, this neighborhood of clones
I’m looking at the crowd and they’re staring at their phones
They groom the coast line here, the sun will disappear (oh, God!)
And maybe once a year I think to clean my car

Caught my reflection, dropped the call
I’ve been medicating with cigarettes and alcohol
I got vertigo, no I can’t see straight
I got obligations though I’m usually late but

You’re the best I ever had
And I’m trying not to get stuck in my head
But I think I dropped my wallet in Santa Fe
Lost the only picture I had of you that day and
You’re the best I ever had
I won’t be the same

Hey West Virginia, Hey North Dakota
I think I love you, but don’t even know you
Hey Massachusetts, Hey Minnesota
I think I love you, but don’t even know you
Hey Carolina, Hey Oklahoma
I think I love you, but don’t even know you
Hey Alabama, Hey California
I think I love you, but don’t even know you

You’re the best I ever had (you’re the best I ever had)
And I’m trying not to get stuck in my head (not to get stuck in my head)
But I passed a lonely sign on the interstate
Saying, “Find someone 'fore it gets too late!”
You’re the best I ever had (you’re the best I ever had)
I won’t be the same

Hey West Virginia, Hey North Dakota (Oh why, oh why)
I think I love you, but don’t even know you (I won’t be the same)
Hey Massachusetts, Hey Minnesota (you’re the best I ever had)
I think I love you, but don’t even know you (I won’t be the same)

Yeah, I won’t be the same

Make A Move lyrics - Gavin DeGraw

Hey, from the first time that I asked your name
It's like a drug that went straight to the vein
I feel a high coming on, and it's all because of you

We, could get it going like one, two
Freeze, put up your hands and surrender to me
I know I'm easy to read, and it's all because of you

I don't care where we sleep tonight
I don't care if it's in or outside
You know what to do
Make a move

You could throw away your phone
Make believe that we're all alone
I'm talking to you
Make a move, 'cause I'm ready

I've been thinking about something you once said
That life is short, so let go of regrets
So then I take your advice, and I bet it all on you

Now, you're giving sexy a whole new name
Yeah what I'm feeling is hard to explain
I'm thinking we're overdue, and I bet it all on you

I don't care where we sleep tonight
I don't care if it's in or outside
You know what to do
Make a move

You could throw away your phone
Make believe that we're all alone
I'm talking to you
Make a move, 'cause I'm ready

I'm aware of what you've gone through
Not afraid to say I've fallen for you
If you need someone to talk to
I've got the time

I don't care where we sleep tonight
I don't care if it's in or outside
You know what to do
Make a move

You could throw away your phone
Make believe that we're all alone
I'm talking to you
Make a move, 'cause I'm ready
