I Want It That Way
Max Martin/Andreas Carlsson

You are my fire
The one desire
Believe when I say
I want it that was

But we are two worlds apart
Can't reach to your heart
When you say
I want it that way

chorus:
Tell me why
Ain't nothin' but 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

bridge:
Now I can see that we're fallin' 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 heartache
Ain't nothin' but a mistake
Tell my why
I never wanna hear you say
(Don't wanna hear you say)
I want it that way

(Tell me why)
Ain't nothing but heartache
Ain't nothin' but a mistake
Tell me why
I never wanna hear you say
(Don't wanna hear you say)
I want it that way
(x2)

Cuz I want it that way

Everybody [extended version]
Dennis PoP/Max Martin

Everybody
Rock your body
Everybody
Rock your body right

Backstreet's back, alright!

Oh my God, we're back again
Brothers, sisters, everybody sayin'
Gonna bring the flavor, show you how
Gotta question for us, better ask it now

pre-chorus:
Am I original?
(Yeah)
Am I the only one?
(Yeah)
Am I sexual?
(Yeah)
Am I everything you need
You'd better rock your body now

chorus:
Everybody
(Yeah)
Rock your body
(Yeah)
Everybody
Rock your body right

Backstreet's back, alright!

Now throw you're hands up in the air
Wave 'em around like you just don't care
If you wanna party, let me hear you yell
Cuz we got it goin' on again

PRE-CHORUS

CHORUS

Everybody
(Yeah)
Rock your body
(Yeah)
Everybody
Rock your body right
(Rock your body right)
Backstreet's back

Everybody
(Yeah)
Rock your body
(Yeah)
Everybody
Rock your body right

Backstreet's back, alright! As Long As You Love Me
Max Martin

Although loneliness has always been a friend of mine
I'm leavin' my life in your hands
People say I'm crazy and that I am blind
Riskin' it all in a glance

And 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're here with me.

chorus:
I don't care

Who you are
Where you're from
What you did
As long as you love me(X2)

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 it's meant to be

CHORUS

bridge:
I 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(X3)

Show Me the Meaning of Being Lonely
Max Martin/Herbert Crichlow

Show me the meaning of being lonley

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�

Night to light
So soon become
Wild and free
I can feel the sun
You're 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 missin' in my heart

Live your life
As it never ends
Eyes of stone
Observe the trends
They never say
Forever gaze
If only�

Guilty roads
To an endless love
There's no control
Are you with me now
You every wish
Will be done
They tell me�

CHORUS

bridge:
There's no where to run
I have no place to go
Surrender my heart,
Body and soul

How can it be
You're askin' me
To feel things
You never show

You are missin' in my heart

Tell me why can't I be where you are

CHORUS (X2)

Quit Playin' Games (With My Heart)
Max Martin/Herbert Crichlow

Even in my heart, I see
Your not bein' true to me
Deep within my soul, I feel
Nothin's like it used to be

Sometimes I with I could
Turn back time
Impossible as it may seem
But I wish I could, so bad
Baby

chorus:
(Quit playin' games with my heart)
Quit playin' games with my heart
Before you tear us apart
Quit playin' games with my heart

(I should've known from the start)
You know you've gotta stop
You're tearin' us apart
Quit playin' games with my heart

I live my life, the way
To keep you comin' 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)

CHORUS

bridge:
Baby, baby, the love that we had was so strong
Don't leave me hangin' here forever

Oh baby, baby, this is not a ride
Let's stop this tonight

Quit playin' games

Sometimes I wish I could,
Turn back time
Impossible as it may seem
But I wish I could, so bad
Baby

CHORUS

Quit playin' games with my heart

All I Have to Give
Full Force

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 thousand 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 listenin' to a word you're sayin'
That's OK, baby, just tell me your problems
I'll try my 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
Prayin' for the day that you'll be mine

CHORUS

bridge:
(Hey girl)
Hey girl,
I don't want you to 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 it to you

All I can give,
All I can give
Everything I have is for you

You, you, you've what I need
You, you've what I need

CHORUS(X3, fade out)

Larger Than Life
Max Martin/Kristian Ludin/Brian T. Littrell

I may run and hide when you're screamin' my name
Alright
But let me tell ya 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

Lookin' at the crowd and I see your body swing
C'mon
Wishin' I could thank ya in a different way
C'mon
All of your time spent
Keeps us alive

CHORUS

Yeah, that's right

All of your time spent
Keeps us alive

Every time we're down
You can make it right

CHORUS

Every time we're down
(Yeah)
You can make it right
(Yeah)
That's what makes you larger than life

CHORUS

I'll Never Break Your Heart
Eugene Wilde/Albert Manno

spoken:
Baby, I know you're hurtin'
Right now you feel you'll never love again
But all I ask is for a chance
To prove that I love you

(sung)
From the first day
That I saw your smiling face,
Honey I knew that we would be
Together forever

Ooh, when I asked you out
You said no, but I found out
Darlin' that you'd been hurt
You thought that you'd never love again

pre-chorus:
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 with out you
I'll give you all of me, honey that�s no lie (X2)

As time goes by
You will get to know me
A little more better,
Girl that�s the way love goes

And I know you're afraid
To let your feelings show
And I understand,
Girl it's time to let go

PRE-CHORUS

CHORUS

bridge:
No way, no how
Make you cry
I sware

No way, no how
I�

CHORUS(fade out)

The Call
Max Martin/Rami

GIRL: Hello?
AJ: Hi it's me, what's up baby? Listen, I'm gonna be late tonight so don't stay up and wait for me, OK?
GIRL: Where are you?
AJ: Wait, what, say that again?
GIRL: Hello?
AJ: You're dropping out, I think my batteries must be low. Listen, if you can hear me, we're going to a place near by, alright? I 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 near by, wanna go?"

I should have said no
Someone's waiting for me
But I called my girl up and said

CHORUS:
Listen baby, I'm sorry
Just wanna tell ya don't worry
I will be late,
Don't stay up and wait for me

I said baby you're dropping out
My battery is low
We're going to a place nearby
Gotta go

Now two years gone
Nothin's been 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

break:
AJ: baby I'm sorry
Girl: hello?
(X2)
Gotta go
(ad lib)

Let me tell you the story
'Bout a 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
Standin' in front of me
I said "Hi"
"I gotta little place nearby"

Gotta go�

chorus(X2)

Shape of My Heart
Max Martin/Lisa Miskovsky

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 yes

chorus:
Lookin' back on the things I've done
I was tryin' to be someone
Playin' my part
Kept you in the dark
Now let me show you the shape of my heart

Sadness is beautiful, lonliness is tragic, oh
So fill me I can't win this war
Touch me now don't bother
If every second it makes me weaker
You can save me from the man I've become ---

CHORUS

bridge:
I'm here with my confession
Got nothin' to hide no more
I don't know where to start
But to show you the shape of my heart ---

I'm lookin' back on things I've done
I never wanna play the same old part
Kept you in the dark
Now let me show you the shape of my heart

CHORUS (+ad lib) (x2)

Show you the shape of my heart

The One
Max Martin/Brian T. Littrell

I'll be the one

I guess you were lost
When I met you
But still there were tears in your eyes
So out of trust
And I knew
No more the mysteries than lies

There you were
Wild and free
Reachin' out like you needed me
A helpin' hand
To make it right
I am holding you all through the night

chorus:
I'll be the one
I'll be the one
Who will make all your sorrows like none
I'll be the light
I'll be the light
When it feels like there's no place to run
I'll be the one�

To hold you
And make sure that you'll be all right
Cuz 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

To hold you
And make sure that you'll be all right

bridge:
You need me like I need you
And 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 all right

I'll be the one
I'll be the light
Where you can run�

CHORUS (X2)

I'll be the one
To hold you and make sure that you'll be all right
I'll be the one

More Than That
Franciz & LePOnt/Adam Anders

I can see that you've been cryin'
You can hide it with a lie
What's the use in you denyin'
That what you have is wrong

I heard him promise you forever
But forever's come and gone
Baby he would say whatever
It takes to keep you blind

To the truth between the lies

chorus:
I will love you more than that
I won't say the 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?
Cuz I just cant be friends

Baby, knowing in the end-

That-

CHORUS

bridge:
There's not a day that passes by
I wouldn't wonder why we haven't tried
Its not to late to change your mind
Baby, take my hand, don't say goodbye-

I will love you more than that
I won't say the words
Then take them back

CHORUS (x2)

Drowning

Don't pretend you're sorry
I know you're not
You know you've got the power
To make me weak inside

And girl you leave me breathless
But it's OK
Cuz you are my survival
Now hear me say:

I can't imagine
Life without your love
Cuz even forever
Don't seem like long enough

chorus:
Every time I breathe I take you in
And my heart beats again
Baby, I can't help it
You keep me drowning in your love

Every time 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
But maybe not
Cuz I know the safety
Floating freely in your arms

I dont need another lover
It's not for me
Cuz only you can save me
Oh can't you see?

I can't imagine
Life without your love
Cuz even forever
Don't seem like long enough

CHORUS

bridge:
Don't wanna pull me under
Cover me with dreams
Love me mouth to mouth now
You know I can't resist
Cuz you're the air that I breathe

(key change)

CHORUS

Baby I can't help it
You keep me drowning in you love

You got me drowning
You got me drowning
(keep me drowning in your love)
Baby I can't help it
You keep me drowning in your love

CHORUS
