I'm just a girl and her guitar
Trying to give you my whole heart
If there's anybody out there listening to me
All I have is a story and a dream
Here I am, and that's all I can be
You know I forget to breathe sometimes
And I'm so afraid to fall behind
Why do I let the pressure take over my mind?
When I know the truth is never wrong
I'm alright, this is right where I belong

Unbreakable Smile
La da da da dee, you're not breaking me
La de da da da da da da da, yeah
Somebody told me fame is a disease
You start singing the blues when you start seeing the green
But I think it's all about what you choose
The way you live your life, depends on you
That's when I realized I wanna make a difference
Change other people's lives, give hope, even for a moment
Use my name for good and change the game I could
Because to make it you think I gotta act a certain way,
Be a little bit insane, live a little, it's okay
I guess we have different definitions of living, but you'll twist my words anyway
You'll say that I'm naïve, like I don't have a past,
You're the one being deceived, I see right behind the mask
Tryna to stir me up and get me mad
I smile because happiness is all I have, so
La da da da dee, you're not breaking me
La de da da da, ain't got time for ya, singing
La da da da dee, you won't shatter me
La de da da da, got an unbreakable smile
You see me hanging with my fam, but that don't mean I'm living in a bubble
You'll find me at church, but that don't mean I can't cause trouble
Stir up a little scene 'cause isn't that what you want?
For me to mess up, so you can dress up some story
Saying, Tori this'll sell more records
But I'd rather make 'em yawn than be a pawn on your chessboard
So call me boring, call me cookie cutter
Call me what you want
A matter of fact
Just say it loud and don't st-stutter
'Cause I know who I am, yeah I'm still the same
Just a California girl with big dreams
Thinking maybe they'll let me sing songs about real things
And baby who knows maybe I can sell out shows without taking off my clothes
God made me sexy I don't care if only I know
La da da da dee, you're not breaking me
La de da da da, ain't got time for ya, singing
La da da da dee, you won't shatter me
La de da da da, got an unbreakable smile
Oh oh [2x]
And I'll just keep on singing.
La da da da dee, you're not breaking me
La de da da da, ain't got time for ya
La da da da dee, you won't shatter me
La de da da da, got an unbreakable smile
I might be smiling, yes
But don't mistake kindness from weakness
La de da da da da da da da, yeah
Somebody told me fame is a disease
You start singing the blues when you start seeing the green
But I think it's all about what you choose
The way you live your life, depends on you
That's when I realized I wanna make a difference

Shouldve Been Us
Walking round with my head down
But I can't hide with these high heels on
Downtown in a thick crowd
But it's just you that my mind is on
Dressed up, got my heart messed up
You got yours and I got mine
It's unfair that I still care
And I wonder where you are tonight
Thinking it could be different
But maybe we missed it yea
Thinking it could be different
It could, it could
It should've been us
Shoulda been a fire, shoulda been the perfect storm
It should've been us
Coulda been the real thing, now we'll never know for sure, ooh
We were crazy, but amazing, baby we both know
It should've been us, us
It, it, it should've been us
Back and forth like a tug of war
What's it all for, do I want it back
I still got a little flame for ya
Even though you drove me mad
Now and then, I pretend
That it's you when I close my eyes
You got yours, I got mine

First Heartbreak
You never hear me singin' love songs
Wasn't big on poetry
Never cried in the movies
Didn't wanna feel so weak
I would never talk about it
Never let it get too deep
But something in me's changin'
Guess you did something to me
'Cause for the first time I get worried
When I'm lookin' in your eyes
That one day you might leave me
And it keeps me up at night
I guess that means I really love you
'Cause I'm afraid to make mistakes
If you ever left me that would be my first heartbreak
Oooh ooh oooh ooh, oooh ooh oooh ooh
If you ever left me that would be my first heartbreak
Maybe I shouldn't be thinkin' so far ahead
Better just enjoy this moment
And be happy for what I get
But you know it's not that easy
To get out of my head
So I guess that it's a good thing
When you want something so bad
'Cause for the first time I get worried
When I'm lookin' in your eyes
That one day you might leave me
And it keeps me up at night
I guess that means I really love you
'Cause I'm afraid to make mistakes
If you ever left me that would be my first heartbreak
I wanna run I wanna stay
Hold every piece so it won't break
Wanna let go, wanna hold tight
Afraid that I might suffocate, you with my love
How much is enough?
How much is too safe?
'Cause for the first time I get worried
When I'm lookin' in your eyes
That one day you might leave me
And it keeps me up at night
I guess that means I really love you
'Cause I'm afraid to make mistakes
If you ever left me that would be my first heartbreak
Oooh ooh oooh ooh, oooh ooh oooh ooh
If you ever left me that would be my first heartbreak
Wasn't big on poetry
Never cried in the movies
Didn't wanna feel so weak
I would never talk about it
Never let it get too deep

I Was Made For Loving You
[Tori Kelly:]
A dangerous plan, just this time
A stranger's hand clutched in mine
I'll take this chance, so call me blind
I've been waiting all my life
Please don't scar this young heart
Just take my hand
[Chorus - Tori Kelly:]
I was made for loving you
Even though we may be hopeless hearts just passing through
Every bone screaming I don't know what we should do
All I know is, darling, I was made for loving you
[Ed Sheeran:]
Hold me close through the night
Don't let me go, we'll be alright
Touch my soul and hold it tight
I've been waiting all my life
I won't scar your young heart
Just take my hand
[Chorus - Tori Kelly & Ed Sheeran:]
Cause I was made for loving you
Even though we may be hopeless hearts just passing through
Every bone screaming I don't know what we should do
All I know is, darling, I was made for loving you
Please don't go, I've been waiting so long
Oh, you don't even know me at all
But I was made for loving you
[Chorus - Tori Kelly & Ed Sheeran:]
I was made for loving you
Even though we may be hopeless hearts just passing through

City Dove
Don't know what it's all about
But every time I look around
All I see is how we're holdin' on
Don't ask me what's wrong or right
I don't even know the time
All I know is I'm holdin' on
I haven't figured anything out
I haven't figured anything anything anything out
City dove, fly between the buildings and fences
Soft inside but rough on the edges
Waiting here for something to come just holdin' on
Oooh,
City dove, fly between the stars and the headlights
Passin' by the clouds and the street signs
Knowing that there's something to come, just holdin' on
I don't really know my fate
I just know I'm on my way
There will be mistakes movin' on
Try to get to the heart of it
Fly low but lookin' for Heaven
I know, I know I'm holding on
Won't figure everything out
Never figure everything everything everything out
City dove, fly between the buildings and fences
Soft inside but rough on the edges
Waiting here for something to come just holdin' on
Oooh,
City dove, fly between the stars and the headlights
Passin' by the clouds and the street signs
Knowing that there's something to come, just holdin' on
Ooohh, ooooh yeah, oooh, knowing that there's something to come, just holdin' on ooon...
Fly between the stars and the headlights
Passin' by the clouds and the street signs
Knowing that there's something to come, just holdin' on, ooonnnn...
But every time I look around
All I see is how we're holdin' on
Don't ask me what's wrong or right

Talk
People talk, people talk
But they don't wanna say what they're really trying to say
Hopes and fears, smoke and mirrors
Save all the thinking, words by themselves they just fade
People run, people walk
But they don't ever see past the world that they're in
So if it's talk that you want from me then maybe you should let me in
Oh, you keep saying you won't let me go
Oh, you keep saying what I've heard before
Talk
Playing with empty hearts, leading words felt like they're just going no where now
So if it's talk that you want from me then maybe you should let me in
Oh, you keep saying you won't let me go
Oh, you keep saying what I've heard before
Oh, you keep saying you won't let me go
All I hear is talk
I know all about you, know all about you
Know all about you
You keep saying you won't let me go

Oh, you keep saying you won't let me go

Oh, you keep saying you won't let me go

You keep saying things I've heard before babe

Funny (Live)
I'm just a girl and her guitar
Trying to give you my whole heart
If there's anybody out there listening to me
All I have is a story and a dream
Here I am, and that's all I can be
You know I forget to breathe sometimes
And I'm so afraid to fall behind
Why do I let the pressure take over my mind?
When I know the truth is never wrong
I'm alright, this is right where I belong
Trying to give you my whole heart
If there's anybody out there listening to me
All I have is a story and a dream
Here I am, and that's all I can be
You know I forget to breathe sometimes
And I'm so afraid to fall behind
Why do I let the pressure take over my mind?
When I know the truth is never wrong
I'm alright, this is right where I belong

Art Of Letting You Go
We were just little kids, we were ambiguous
My crush was serious, it's crazy how
As we were growing up, I could just set you up
But it just wasn't love, I guess the stars
Never aligned for us, life just snuck up on us
You got a girlfriend and stuff, feelings are bottled up
Hide 'em in this song, take the key and lock it up
But when I see you again, no, I can't even pretend
[Chorus:]
It's always you I go back to; I know it's danger
It's always you my heart runs to, but I'm a stranger
Baby, what happened? What am I to do?
Wanna move on, but I'm scared of losing you
I can't seem to master the art of letting you go
No, I can't seem to master the art of letting you go
Try not to dwell on it, but sometimes I can't help it,
So I paint pictures with it
Even when I was always on the road, I was always doing shows,
and my life was never slow, don't you know
Your love stayed in the back of my head?
and a house full of memories is where I lived
Right when I came home, oh no, there I go
Saw you again and I can't even pretend
[Chorus:]
It's always you I go back to; I know it's danger
It's always you my heart runs to, but I'm a stranger
Baby, what happened? What am I to do?
Wanna move on, but I'm scared of losing you
I can't seem to master the art of letting you go
No, I can't seem to master the art of letting you go
Not letting you go
It's just the art of letting you go
All of me, I give you everything
If you could only see how much you mean to me
I know you'll always be the one that stays with me, haunting me
And maybe I'll never know just how to let you go
[Chorus:]
It's always you I go back to; I know it's danger
It's always you my heart runs to, but I'm a stranger
Baby, what happened? What am I to do?
Wanna move on, but I'm scared of losing you
I can't seem to master the art of letting you go
No, I can't seem to master the art of letting you go
I'm wishing that I could be happy with you
(Just the art of letting you go)
With you, with you, with you
My crush was serious, it's crazy how
As we were growing up, I could just set you up
But it just wasn't love, I guess the stars
Never aligned for us, life just snuck up on us
You got a girlfriend and stuff, feelings are bottled up
Hide 'em in this song, take the key and lock it up
But when I see you again, no, I can't even pretend
[Chorus:]
It's always you I go back to; I know it's danger
It's always you my heart runs to, but I'm a stranger
Baby, what happened? What am I to do?
Wanna move on, but I'm scared of losing you
I can't seem to master the art of letting you go
No, I can't seem to master the art of letting you go
Try not to dwell on it, but sometimes I can't help it,
So I paint pictures with it
Even when I was always on the road, I was always doing shows,
and my life was never slow, don't you know

Right when I came home, oh no, there I go

No, I can't seem to master the art of letting you go
I'm wishing that I could be happy with you
(Just the art of letting you go)
With you, with you, with you

California lovers
Tori Kelly
LL Cool J
[Tori Kelly:]
Dancing in the sand at the bonfire
We jamming out to Marley at night, uh
Staying up to watch every sunrise
Just living like we ain't gonna die, uh
Everybody said I was crazy
Yeah, everybody said you'd be gone, uh-uh
I know that I'm supposed to forget you
And boy, you know I moved on, but
Every time I'm driving with the top down, baby
I remember sneaking out in your car (oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
Jumped into the ocean while the sun kissed on me
Was a sucker for them boys with a wild heart
[Chorus - Tori Kelly:]
I'll be cool with it, done with it
You're never on my mind
Til I feel the heat of you and me; it hits me every summer
Remember when no one else could make me feel alive?
We were young and free, 17, just California lovers
Mmm, yeah
[Tori Kelly:]
Teaching me to skate down the boardwalk
I'm crashing into you like a wave, uh
Even if it was only small talk
You always knew the right thing to say, uh
Maybe I was just being stupid
For thinking that my first love would last, uh-uh
Even though it ended in heartache
Sometimes I wanna go back
Every time I'm driving with the top down, baby
I remember sneaking out in your car (oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
Jumped into the ocean while the sun kissed on me
Was a sucker for them boys with wild hearts
[Chorus - Tori Kelly (LL Cool J):]
I'll be cool with it, done with it
You're never on my mind
Til I feel the heat of you and me; it hits me every summer
Remember when no one else could make me feel alive? (yeah)
We were young and free (young and free), 17 (17), just California lovers
[LL Cool J:]
Reminiscin', what a vision
Lips kissing, seats christened
Bob Marley twisting, top down, Pacific Highway
Black Sinatra remix, I did it my way
Your legs deserve they own day of the week, Th-Th-Thighday
Mark your calendars, the love champ's back
I make your memories challenger, Venice in the gondola
You can have a sip of whatever you want, a bottle of
Life's a sportscar, baby, you gotta throttle 'er
We just trippin', cord flippin', for club pickin'
Clock tickin', we still kickin' it all weekend
I was your Legend, you was my Chrissy Teigen - glory!
You're the reason that summer's my favorite season
[Chorus - Tori Kelly (LL Cool J):]
I'll be cool with it, done with it
You're never on my mind
Til I feel the heat of you and me; it hits me every summer

Falling Slow
I'm not a queen, I'm not a saint
I'm not an angel
Sometimes I'm wrong, I can be bad
Act like a stranger
But here I am, just a lot of broken pieces
I don't plan to leave and break your heart
[Chorus:]
What if I messed up? Would you give up on us?
Would you tear the page out like it never ever happened?
What if I told you you're doing fine? Stay cool
Swear I'll make it worthwhile, baby
You should know I'm always falling slow in love
Slow in love
Falling slow in love
Yeah, I tried to be the girl you need
Your one and only
From time to time, I lose my mind
But don't you worry
But here I am, just a lot of broken pieces
I don't plan to leave and break your heart
[Chorus:]
What if I messed up? Would you give up on us?
Would you tear the page out like it never ever happened?
What if I told you you're doing fine? Stay cool
Swear I'll make it worthwhile, baby
You should know I'm always falling slow in love (oh)
Slow in love (I'm falling)
Falling slow in love
Falling slow (slow) yeah

[Chorus:]
Oh, what if I messed up? Would you give up on us?

Swear I'll make it worthwhile, baby
You should know I'm always falling slow in love (oh)
Slow in love (I'm falling)
Falling slow in love

Anyway
If I said I'm difficult sometimes
Say whatever comes to my mind
Would you stay with me any anyway?
If you knew I made a lot of noise
Say whatever just to make my point
Would you stay with me any anyway?
Well this is the only Tori that I know how to be
I'm sorry if that don't fit your reality
I'm giving one hundred percent of me
So take it all or leave
Whether you're in or out
This is what I'm about
Because I'm up
I'm down
I'm left
I'm right
I'm a be myself all day and night
Whether you leave or stay
This is me any anyway
I do my own thing and that's alright
It's the way I choose to live my life
Whether you leave or stay
This is me any anyway
Woah oh oh oh (yeah)

Comfortable in my skin
I don't smoke, might drink
You act like it's a sin
But while you're out partyin' with men and women who be pretendin'
I'm cool with being different while you hipsters blend in
My heads full of dreams
And I feel like livin' them
While you're messin' with perfection
Inspiration's what I'm chasin'
And take it or leave it babe
I'm not gonna change
If you don't understand I don't need you anyway

Dear No One
I like being independent
Not so much of an investment
No one to tell me what to do
I like being by myself
Don't gotta entertain anybody else
No one to answer to...
But sometimes, I just want somebody to hold
Someone to give me their jacket when it's cold
Got that young love even when we're old
Yeah sometimes, I want someone to grab my hand
Pick me up, pull me close, be my man
I will love you till the end
So if you're out there I swear to be good to you
But I'm done lookin', for my future someone
Cause when the time is right
You'll be here, but for now
Dear no one, this is your love song
Ooo-OhOh

Beautiful Things
I'd been afraid
I'd been away too long
Every city whispering your name
Won't ask you to wait
But darling when I get home
I'm hoping that you might still feel the same
But if you go, I think I'd understand
It's not that easy holding my hand
But you should know, that I miss you all the time
And I wish that I could tell you that we'll be alright
But I can't be where you are tonight
I only dream beautiful things about you
So waking up always seems to hurt
And I hate goodbyes
But baby I'll try to make them work
If you choose to break my heart when I return
But if you go, I think I'd understand
It's not that easy holding my hand
But you should know, that I miss you all the time
And I wish that I could tell you that we'll be alright
But I can't be where you are tonight
I can't be where you are
If you go, I think I'd understand
It's not that easy holding my hand
But you should know, that I miss you all the time
And I wish that I could tell you
But I can't be where you are
I'd been away too long
Every city whispering your name
Won't ask you to wait
But darling when I get home
I'm hoping that you might still feel the same
But if you go, I think I'd understand
It's not that easy holding my hand
But you should know, that I miss you all the time
And I wish that I could tell you that we'll be alright
But I can't be where you are tonight
I only dream beautiful things about you
So waking up always seems to hurt
And I hate goodbyes
But baby I'll try to make them work
If you choose to break my heart when I return

Bottled Up
Yeah, yeah
This is a story of a girl broken-hearted
Messed up her head, she's so guarded
Don't get me started, whoa
It's cause of you that I got this thick skin
I don't wanna let nobody in
All the pain just stayed in place
And I kept it all tucked away for so long, so long, so long, oh
[Chorus:]
I just wanna yell
And I just wanna throw it all in your face
It's silly that I've always felt this way
You'd never know
I just wanna yell
You know that I can only take so much
And I don't wanna keep it bottled up anymore, anymore
Whoa oh oh oh, whoa oh oh oh
Whoa, I don't wanna keep it bottled up
I was there, hanging on by a string
Trying to give you my everything
Yeah, that's what they all sing, yeah
You don't know what you put me through
Trying so hard just to prove to you
That I got something to say
But I kept it all tucked away for so long, so long, so long, oh
[Chorus:]
But now I just wanna yell
I just wanna throw it all in your face
It's silly that I've always felt this way
But you'd never know, oh oh
I just wanna yell
You know that I can only take so much
And I don't wanna keep it bottled up anymore, anymore
Whoa oh oh oh, whoa oh oh oh, yeah
Whoa, anymore
Whoa oh oh oh, whoa oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh oh, uh yeah
I never talked about the way I really felt
You put my heart through hell, thought you knew me so well
But, uh-uh, just waiting for me to fail
But I'm doing the opposite and I can't wait to tell the whole world
You're the one you said would eat me up
Remember when I told you that I wasn't good enough?
And yes, started to believe you, I felt like giving up
Left me with a dream crushed and your empty words stuck to me
I didn't wanna ever feel like that again
So I locked up any kind of emotion, but
I got the keys and I'm ready now
Set the caged bird free, time to let it out
[Chorus:]
I just wanna yell, yeah
This way, yeah, you never know
I just wanna yell
You know that I can only take so much
I don't wanna keep it bottled up anymore, anymore
Whoa oh oh oh, oh oh, yeah
Keep it bottled up, I don't wanna keep it bottled up, anymore
Yeah, yeah
I don't wanna keep it bottled up anymore
No more, no more
This is a story of a girl broken-hearted
Messed up her head, she's so guarded
Don't get me started, whoa
It's cause of you that I got this thick skin
I don't wanna let nobody in
All the pain just stayed in place
And I kept it all tucked away for so long, so long, so long, oh
[Chorus:]
I just wanna yell
And I just wanna throw it all in your face
It's silly that I've always felt this way
You'd never know
I just wanna yell
You know that I can only take so much
And I don't wanna keep it bottled up anymore, anymore
Whoa oh oh oh, whoa oh oh oh
Whoa, I don't wanna keep it bottled up
I was there, hanging on by a string
Trying to give you my everything
Yeah, that's what they all sing, yeah
You don't know what you put me through
Trying so hard just to prove to you
That I got something to say
But I kept it all tucked away for so long, so long, so long, oh
[Chorus:]
But now I just wanna yell
I just wanna throw it all in your face
It's silly that I've always felt this way
But you'd never know, oh oh
I just wanna yell
You know that I can only take so much
And I don't wanna keep it bottled up anymore, anymore
Whoa oh oh oh, whoa oh oh oh, yeah
Whoa, anymore
Whoa oh oh oh, whoa oh oh oh
Whoa oh oh oh oh, uh yeah
I never talked about the way I really felt
You put my heart through hell, thought you knew me so well
But, uh-uh, just waiting for me to fail
But I'm doing the opposite and I can't wait to tell the whole world
You're the one you said would eat me up
Remember when I told you that I wasn't good enough?
And yes, started to believe you, I felt like giving up
Left me with a dream crushed and your empty words stuck to me
I didn't wanna ever feel like that again
So I locked up any kind of emotion, but
I got the keys and I'm ready now
Set the caged bird free, time to let it out
[Chorus:]
I just wanna yell, yeah
This way, yeah, you never know
I just wanna yell
You know that I can only take so much
I don't wanna keep it bottled up anymore, anymore
Whoa oh oh oh, oh oh, yeah
Keep it bottled up, I don't wanna keep it bottled up, anymore
Yeah, yeah
I don't wanna keep it bottled up anymore
No more, no more
