Tattoo lyrics - Jordin Sparks

Oh, oh, oh

No matter what you say about love
I keep coming back for more
Keep my hand in the fire
Sooner or later, I'll get what I'm asking for

No matter what you say about life
I learn every time I bleed
That truth is a stranger
Soul is in danger, I gotta let my spirit be free

To admit that I'm wrong
And then change my mind
Sorry but I have to move on
And leave you behind

[Chorus:]
I can't waste time so give it a moment
I realize, nothing's broken
No need to worry 'bout everything I've done
Live every second like it was my last one
Don't look back got a new direction
I loved you once, needed protection
You're still a part of everything I do
You're on my heart just like a tattoo

(Just like a tattoo, I'll always have you
I'll always have you, I'll always have you)

I'm sick of playing all of these games
It's not about taking sides
When I looked in the mirror, didn't deliver
It hurt enough to think that I could

Stop, admit that I'm wrong
And then change my mind
Sorry but I gotta be strong
And leave you behind

[Chorus:]
I can't waste time so give it a moment
I realize, nothing's broken
No need to worry 'bout everything I've done
Live every second like it was my last one
Don't look back got a new direction
I loved you once, needed protection
You're still a part of everything I do
You're on my heart just like a tattoo

(Just like a tattoo, I'll always have you
I'll always have you)

If I live every moment
Won't change any moment
Still a part of me in you
I will never regret you
Still the memory of you
Marks everything I do

[Chorus x2]

Just like a tattoo
I'll always have you

One Step At A Time lyrics - Jordin Sparks

Hurry up and wait
So close, but so far away
Everything that you've always dreamed of
Close enough for you to taste
But you just can't touch

You wanna show the world, but no one knows your name yet
Wonder when and where and how you're gonna make it
You know you can if you get the chance
In your face as the door keeps slamming
Now you're feeling more and more frustrated
And you're getting all kind of impatient waiting

[Chorus:]
We live and we learn to take
One step at a time
There's no need to rush
It's like learning to fly
Or falling in love
It's gonna happen when it's
Supposed to happen and we
Find the reasons why
One step at a time

You believe and you doubt
You're confused, you got it all figured out
Everything that you always wished for
Could be yours, should be yours, would be yours
If they only knew

You wanna show the world, but no one knows your name yet
Wonder when and where and how you're gonna make it
You know you can if you get the chance
In your face as the door keeps slamming
Now you're feeling more and more frustrated
And you're getting all kind of impatient waiting

We live and we learn to take
One step at a time
There's no need to rush
It's like learning to fly
Or falling in love
It's gonna happen when it's
Supposed to happen and we
Find the reasons why
One step at a time

When you can't wait any longer
But there's no end in sight
(when you need to find the strength)
It's your faith that makes you stronger
The only way you get there
Is one step at a time

One step at a time
There's no need to rush
It's like learning to fly
Or falling in love
It's gonna happen when it's
Supposed to happen and we
Find the reasons why
One step at a time

One step at a time
There's no need to rush
It's like learning to fly
Or falling in love
It's gonna happen when it's
Supposed to happen and we
Find the reasons why
One step at a time

No Air lyrics - Jordin Sparks (feat. Chris Brown)

[Jordin]
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air

If I should die before I wake
It's 'cause you took my breath away
Losing you is like living in a world with no air
Oh

[Chris Brown]
I'm here alone, didn't wanna leave
My heart won't move, it's incomplete
Wish there was a way that I can make you understand

[Jordin]
But how do you expect me
to live alone with just me
'Cause my world revolves around you
It's so hard for me to breathe

[Chorus:]
Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air
Can't live, can't breathe with no air
It's how I feel whenever you ain't there
It's no air, no air
Got me out here in the water so deep
Tell me how you gonna be without me
If you ain't here, I just can't breathe
It's no air, no air

No air, air
No air, air
No air, air
No air, air

[Chris Brown]
I walked, I ran, I jumped, I flew
Right off the ground to float to you
There's no gravity to hold me down for real

[Jordin]
But somehow I'm still alive inside
You took my breath, but I survived
I don't know how, but I don't even care

[Both:]
So how do you expect me
to live alone with just me
'Cause my world revolves around you
It's so hard for me to breathe

[Chorus]

No air, air
No air, air
No air, air
No air, air
No more
It's no air, no air

[Chorus]

No air, air
No air, air
No air, air
No air, air

Tell me how I'm supposed to breathe with no air
Can't live, can't breathe with no air
It's how I feel whenever you ain't there
It's no air, no air

Got me out here in the water so deep
Tell me how you gonna be without me
If you ain't here, I just can't breathe
It's no air, no air

No air, air
No air, air
No air, air
No air

Freeze lyrics - Jordin Sparks

Hold the pose, a perfect picture
Just so I remember how you're looking tonight
Let it go, now the days gone
Standing in the dark, although we've turned on the lights

Tonight we will deny, that time is passing by
It's leaving you and I to...

Freeze
A moment, its never been better
Freeze
All over, we won't last forever
You said that you're sorry for pushing me
But then smiled when I opened my eyes
I'm gonna
Freeze
A moment, while we're together

Keep the peace, by gones be gone
Coming up the rain under the life that we've made
Under here, we're not so soft
Forgiving the feeling that we put on parade

Tonight we will deny, that time is passing by
It's leaving you and I to...

Freeze
A moment, its never been better
Freeze
All over, we won't last forever
You said that you're sorry for pushing me
But then smiled when I opened my eyes
I'm gonna
Freeze
A moment, while we're together

Don't stop, gotta know what you got
There's no second chances in life
Don't break, gotta give what you take
With you

Freeze
A moment, its never been better
Freeze
All over, we won't last forever

Freeze
A moment, its never been better
I Freeze
All over, we won't last forever
You looked at me with the truth in your eyes
And you said it's ok, you can go
I'm gonna
Freeze
This moment, while we're together

Freeze
A moment

Shy Boy lyrics - Jordin Sparks

Are you a shy boy?

Were in the door, I get a smile from a fly boy
He seen me before and makes his move like a fly boy
I'm sick and tired of them fly boys
It's bye bye boy

I'm in a lounge, I get a wink from a bad boy
He comes around all puffed up like a bad boy
I'm sick and tired of them bad boys

[Chorus]
Cause I got my eye on this other guy
Back in the booth with his boys, he's all mellowed out
And tonight I don't mind me a shy boy
So I gotta know
Are you a shy boy?

I'm by the stage, I get a look from a rock boy
He's got the shades on indoors like a rock boy
I'm sick and tired of them rock boys
It's bye bye boy

Out on the floor, I get the moves from a home boy
Trying to score, his body rocks like a home boy
I'm sick and tired of them home boys

[Chorus]
Cause I got my eye on this other guy
Back in the booth with his boys, he's all mellowed out
And tonight I don't mind me a shy boy
So I gotta know
Are you a shy boy?

Freak boy
Fresh boy
Slick boy
You're messing with a tom boy
Might just knock you out like a school boy
Crude boy
Playboy
Cowboy
I heard it all before, boy
I'm going out to get me a shy boy

[Chorus]
Cause I got my eye on this other guy
Back in the booth with his boys, he's all mellowed out
And tonight I don't mind me a shy boy
So I gotta know

[Chorus]
Cause I got my eye on this other guy
Back in the booth with his boys, he's all mellowed out
And tonight I don't mind me a shy boy
So I gotta know
Are you a shy boy?

Shy boy
Shy boy
Shy boy
Shy boy

Now You Tell Me lyrics - Jordin Sparks

Is there anything that can make you happy?
I don't know what to say to make it better
Seeing you like this, down and hurt so badly
When you have been so kept together

What's this?
All this time I thought you didn't need me
Now I've gone from you and now you tell me

[Chorus:]
You're in love, but that's not what it was
All those times that passed by with no signs
And now you're telling me
You miss me, boy why couldn't I see?
And my heart don't agree with what you're telling me

You were nonchalant, strong, and unaffected
And you never wanted me to be there
I never saw your heart, that's how close you kept it
So right now I'm so unsure how to care

What's this?
All this time I thought you didn't need me
Now I've gone from you and now you tell me

[Chorus x2]

No attention was given
No affection from you to heal the hurt
I was hoping
I was wishing
Just to listen and to hear those words

[Chorus x2]

Next To You lyrics - Jordin Sparks

Two 'o clock and I wish that I was sleeping
You're in my head like a song on the radio
All I know is that I got to get next to you
Yeah I got to get next to you
Sitting here turning minutes into hours
To find the nerve just to call you on the telephone
You don't know that I got to get next to you

[Chorus]
Maybe were friends
Maybe were more
Maybe it's just my imagination
But I see you stare just a little too long
And it makes me start to wonder
So baby call me crazy
But I think you feel it too
Maybe I, Maybe I
Just got to get next to you

I asked around and I heard that you were talking
Told my girl that you thought I was out of your league
What a fool, I got to get next to you, whoa
Yeah it's five in the morning and I can't go to sleep
'Cause I wish, yeah I wish that you knew what you mean to me
Baby let's get together and end this mystery, oh

[Chorus]
Maybe were friends
Maybe were more
Maybe it's just my imagination
But I see you stare just a little too long
And it makes me start to wonder
So baby call me crazy
But I think you feel it too
Maybe I, Maybe I
Just got to get next to you

Whatcha got to say? Whatcha got to do?
How ya get the one you want to want to get next to you?

Whatcha got to say? Whatcha got to do?
How ya get the one you want to want to get next to you?

Whatcha got to say? Whatcha got to do?
How ya get the one you want to want to get next to you?

Whatcha got to say? Whatcha got to do?
How ya get the one you want to want to get next to you?
Yeah, yeah, to want to get next to you

[Chorus]
Maybe were friends
Maybe were more
Maybe it's just my imagination
But I see you stare just a little too long
And it makes me start to wonder
So baby call me crazy
But I think you feel it too
Baby call me crazy
But I know you feel it too
Maybe I, Maybe I
Just got to get next to you
Yeah, yeah, yeah
I got to get next to you

Just For The Record lyrics - Jordin Sparks

I can't help myself
If I don't wanna be with nobody else
I don't wanna leave my baby's side
And I don't wanna kiss another guy
I'll pass any test
Cause nothing in this world or in the next
Could make me second guess
Could make me change my mind
Could make me not protect what I'm feeling inside

Cause I'm smart enough to know that this is a good thing
Please believe it, please believe it
And I'm smart enough to stay right where I belong
And I'm faithful enough to know that this is meant to be
And if it's not, the don't speak
Don't ruin it, let me dream

[Chorus:]
Hear me, hear me
This is for my baby
There will never be another
There's so many ways I love you
And that's just for the record, babe
I need you, need you
I can't wait to see you
I so love when were together
Can't nobody do it better
And that's just for the record, babe

I can't be perfect
No one is flawless
But rest in mind
I'll be there through the good and the bad and the ugly and worse
So if it's something that you're lacking
Go and tell me first

Cause I'm smart enough to know that this is a good thing, yeah
Smart enough to stay right where I belong, oh no no no
And I'm faithful enough to know that this is meant to be
And if it's not, the don't speak
Don't ruin it, let me dream

[Chorus]

So if there's any way to cheat
Don't tell me 'cause I don't wanna know
And if there's any way to leave
Don't tell me 'cause I don't wanna go
I don't wanna go to sleep 'cause I don't wanna miss you
This is team and I love my position
Lead me anywhere, I'll go with you there
I'll go with you there

[Chorus x2]

Permanent Monday lyrics - Jordin Sparks

Falling leaves like a blanket at my feet
There's a canopy of stars
And I just miss you like crazy
Suddenly the world's too big
And the hours move too slow
And I just wish that you were holding me near

Seven days, it feels like a year
You whisper through the line
You know I miss you like crazy
So baby can you steal a plane
A boat, the fastes train
You know it just don't feel the same when you're gone

[Chorus]
'Cause everytime you go away
The sunshine starts to fade
Frozen by the hands of time into a
Permanent Monday
Take me back into your arms
And don't ever let me go
'Cause when I see you walk through that door
I'm not lost anymore
I'm home
I'm home

I won't sleep until you're finally next to me
Can't wait to breahe you in
Don't wanna waste my time dreaming
I just wanna treat your name like
A whipser on my skin
And never have to say goodbye again

[Chorus]
'Cause everytime you go away
The sunshine starts to fade
Frozen by the hands of time into a
Permanent Monday
Take me back into your arms
And don't ever let me go
'Cause when I see you walk through that door
I'm not lost anymore
I'm home

'Cause when I feel you right here close to me
Everything is where it's supposed to be, baby

[Chorus]
'Cause everytime you go away
The sunshine starts to fade
Frozen by the hands of time into a
Permanent Monday
Take me back into your arms
And don't ever let me go
'Cause when I see you walk through that door
I'm not lost anymore
I'm home
I'm home
Yes I am
And I miss you like crazy

Young And In Love lyrics - Jordin Sparks

I didn't ask your opinion, what you talking bout?
Too quick to jump to conclusions, 'cause we're hanging out
There ain't no wishes, ain't no fuss
When it's just you and me (you and me)

What makes you think that you can know
What's gonna stick, what's gonna go
So let them pull

[Chorus:]
Let them pull at the seams
Don't they know what it means
To be young and in love like that
Who are they to decide
If it's wrong, if it's right
To be young and in love like that
Like that, like that
Like that, like that
To be young and in love

If people offering answers, sounds like it's breaking fast
I can't remember the questions, whatever asked
Hit the free road then came down
But you don't bother me (bother me)

One of those days when we're old
I'll stop and say I told you so
So get em boy

[Chorus]

Like that, like that
Like that, like that
To be young and in love

It don't matter what they say, too late to walk away
'cause I need him, much too strong
I've waited for so long to feel all the things that I feel
So I gotta get that boy

[Chorus]

Like that, like that
Like that, like that
To be young and in love

See My Side lyrics - Jordin Sparks

I've been trying for days
To think of a way
To find the words to make sense
Of how we behave
This might take a while
So please just hear me out

We know how things can get crazy
When we go ablaze
We just get carried away
Believe me, I know
Don't even say a word
Now please just hear me out

[Chorus]
See my side
And I'll see yours better
Love me back
And I'll love you better

Sometimes the stunts that we pull
Don't even make sense
But I was never the one
To feel that resent
This ain't 'bout who's to blame
So please just hear me out

When the scene gets intense
It's hard to prevent
From going all crazy again
Believe me, I know
Don't even say a word
Now please just hear me out

[Chorus]
See my side
And I'll see yours better
Love me back
And I'll love you better

[Chorus]
See my side
And I'll see yours better
Love me back
And I'll love you better

We'll get right back
On the right track
We'll get right back on
We'll get right back on
On the rgiht track

[Chorus]
See my side
And I'll see yours better
Love me back
And I'll love you better

[Chorus]
See my side
And I'll see yours better
Love me back
And I'll love you better

God Loves Ugly lyrics - Jordin Sparks

You said that I wasn't pretty
So I just believed you
And you said that I wasn't special
So I lived that way
With critical gazes and brutal amazement
And how my reflection could be so imperfect
With all of my blemishes, how could somebody want me?

[Chorus]
But God loves ugly
He doesn't see the way I see
Oh god takes ugly
And turns it into to something that is beautiful
Apparently I'm beautiful
Cause you love me
Whoa, oh

I tried to clean up the outside
All shiny and new
Worked over time to thin up and look right
But inside I knew
That deep in the bottom were secrets I thought I could try to ignore
Old ghosts in my corridors
Never get tired of haunting the past that's in me

[Chorus]
But God loves ugly
He doesn't see the way I see
Oh god takes ugly
And turns it into to something that is beautiful
Apparently I'm so beautiful
Cause you love me

Help me believe why you love me
When I know you see
You see everything
Help me believe why you love me
When I know you see
Inside and you still say I'm beautiful

You're telling me I'm beautiful
Your screaming out I'm so beautiful
And I'm finding out I'm beautiful
You're making me so beautiful
And I can see I'm beautiful
Cause you love me
Whoa, oh

This Is My Now lyrics - Jordin Sparks

There was a time I packed my dreams away
Living in a shell, hiding from myself

There was a time when I was so afraid
I thought I’d reached the end
Baby that was then
But I am made of more than my yesterdays

[Chorus]
This is my now, and I am breathing in the moment
As I look around
I can’t believe the love I see
My fears behind me, gone are the shadows and doubts
That was then, this is my now.

Had to decide was I gonna play it safe
Or look somewhere deep inside
and try to turn the tide
Find the strength to take that step of faith

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
And I have the courage like never before, yeah
I’ve settled for less but ready for more
Ready for more

[Chorus x2]

This is my now

Worth The Wait lyrics - Jordin Sparks

Ooh
I feel what I've been feeling for you
Means I am falling for you
Something's opened up inside of me
And I dream
In shades that only can be
The colors of you and me
I think we both know what that means
I stand inside this promise I made to myself
That I was meant for you

If I fall
If I break
If I lose myself in someone
If I give all I am it'll be with you
When I'm ready to take
All that you want me to give
It will be worth the wait
Worth the wait
It will be worth the wait

My heart
I wanna save it for you
Don't want it broken into pieces
I need myself to be whole
And could we just sit and talk a while
Just wanna see you smile
Feel your sunlight
Shining over me

If I fall
If I break
If I lose myself in someone
If I give all I am it'll be with you
When I'm ready to take
All that you want me to give
It will be worth the wait
Worth the wait

Worth all the long nights dreaming of forever
Someday we will be together
I know it will have been so worth the wait
Ooh
Please wait for me

If I fall
If I break
If I lose myself in someone
If I give all I am it'll be with you
When I'm ready to take
All that you want me to give
It will be worth the wait
Worth the wait
It will have been so worth the wait, yeah
I will be worth the wait

Virginia Is For Lovers lyrics - Jordin Sparks

You became someone so close
That person I could trust
Why did it end up this way?
What happened to the both of us?
I, I'm tearing up inside
I'm on a rollercoaster ride

Thinking of those memories
How your touch was so soft
Your eyes, they were so green
I would have never known how much
You'd come to mean everything to me

[Chorus:]
Virginia is for lovers
And I wonder where do all the others go
And your heart belongs to another
And I'm leaving
Virginia is for lovers anyway

No matter how long were apart
I find it hard to let go
I'm sitting here so restless
Time is moving so slow
I hate that I'm looking back
Reminiscing on photographs

You were like my other half
We were perfect on our own
Then everyone came back
Got harder to get you alone
See the hurting on my face
You were looking the other way because...

[Chorus]

I never got to tell you
You walked away
You left me there
And you won't change no matter what I do
But I still care
And I'm still here, yeah yeah

[Chorus:]
Virginia is for lovers
And I wonder where do all the others go
And your heart is with another
And I'm leaving
Virginia is for lovers anyway

Save Me lyrics - Jordin Sparks

I'm all alone tonight,
No stars are shining on me
I'm thinkin' I'd be alright
If somebody would just call me, yeah

I know that I'm not crazy,
Everybody must get this way, sometimes
So look around,
For the people in your life that say

Save Me
I need somebody's help here
Thought it would be alright but
I'm not pullin' through on my own
Is anyone around who can Save Me
I'm fallin' down it's crazy
If this is the pain God gave me,
I'm cool with that,
But wont somebody Save Me

I guess you missed the signs,
But honey I can never blame you
I don't want ya feelin' guilty,
that'd keep you in pain too (oooooh)

Now I can't hear you when I'm far away, away
So maybe you could learn from this,
And help somebody else someday

Cause I'm human after all
And I could not catch my fall
And nobody ever came around my way
to check up on me and see if I was doin' alright
Nobody came to Save Me

Save Me
I need somebody's help here
Thought it would be alright but
I'm not pullin' through on my own
Is anyone around who can Save Me
I'm fallin' down it's crazy
If this is the pain God gave me,
I'm cool with that,
But wont somebody Save Me

Save Me from my demons
Save Me from myself
Save Me, somebody Save Me
I need someones help

(ooooooooooooh)

Save Me
I need somebody's help here
Thought it would be alright but
I'm not pullin' through on my own
Is anyone around who can Save Me
I'm fallin' down it's crazy
If this is the pain God gave me,
I'm cool with that,
But wont somebody Save Me (wont somebody save me)

Save Me
I need somebody's help here
Thought it would be alright but
I'm not pullin' through on my own
Is anyone around who can Save Me
I'm fallin' down it's crazy
If this is the pain God gave me,
I'm cool with that,
But wont somebody Save Me

(ooooooh)
