Maroon 5 - V Album Lyrics

Maps

I miss the taste of a sweeter life
I miss the conversation
I'm searching for a song tonight
I'm changing all of the stations

I like to think that we had it all
We drew a map to a better place
But on that road I took a fall
Oh baby why did you run away?

I was there for you
In your darkest times
I was there for you
In your darkest night

But I wonder where were you
When I was at my worst
Down on my knees
And you said you had my back
So I wonder where were you
When all the roads you took came back to me

So I'm following the map that leads to you
The map that leads to you
Ain't nothing I can do
The map that leads to you
Following, following, following to you
The map that leads to you
Ain't nothing I can do
The map that leads to you
Following, following, following

I hear your voice in my sleep at night
Hard to resist temptation
'Cause something strange has come over me
And now I can't get over you
No, I just can't get over you

I was there for you
In your darkest times
I was there for you
In your darkest night

But I wonder where were you
When I was at my worst
Down on my knees
And you said you had my back
So I wonder where were you
When all the roads you took came back to me

So I'm following the map that leads to you
The map that leads to you
Ain't nothing I can do
The map that leads to you
Following, following, following to you
The map that leads to you
Ain't nothing I can do
The map that leads to you

Oh oh oh
Oh oh oh
Yeah yeah yeah
Oh oh

Oh, I was there for you
Oh, in your darkest time
Oh, I was there for you
Oh, in your darkest night

Oh, I was there for you
Oh, in your darkest time
Oh, I was there for you
Oh, in your darkest night

But I wonder where were you
When I was at my worst
Down on my knees
And you said you had my back
So I wonder where were you
When all the roads you took came back to me

So I'm following the map that leads to you
The map that leads to you
Ain't nothing I can do
The map that leads to you
Following, following, following to you
The map that leads to you
Ain't nothing I can do
The map that leads to you
Following, following, following

It Was Always You

Woke up sweating from a dream
With a different kind of feeling
All day long my heart was beating
Searching for the meaning

Hazel eyes,
I was so color blind
We were just wasting time
uh uh yeah
For my whole life
We never crossed the line
Only friends in my mind
But now I realize,

It was always you
Can't believe I could not see it all this time, all this time
It was always you
Now I know why my heart wasn't satisfied, satisfied
It was always you, you
No more guessing who
Looking back now I know it was always you, always you

All my hidden desires
Finally came alive
No, I never told lies
To you so why would I
Start tonight

Hazel eyes,
I was so color blind
We were just wasting time
uh uh yeah
For my whole life
We never crossed the line
Only friends in my mind
But now I realize,

It was always you
Can't believe I could not see it all this time, all this time
It was always you
Now I know why my heart wasn't satisfied, satisfied
It was always you, you
No more guessing who
Looking back now I know it was always you, always you

(Aah, yeah, you, you, you, always you, you, you)
(Aah, yeah, you, you, you, always you, you, you)

Woke up sweating from a dream
With a different kind of feeling

It was always you
Even if I could not see it all this time, all this time
It was always you
Now I know why my heart wasn't satisfied, satisfied
It was always you, you
No more guessing who
Looking back now I know it was always you, always you

It was always you

Unkiss Me

If you respect me
Don't protect me
You can tell me,
I can handle it
Stop pretending 'cause we're going down

If you let go
Then just let go
It's disrespectful
How you've handled this
Never ending, kinda run around

I lied to my heart 'cause I thought you felt it
You can't light a fire, if the candle's melted
No, you don't have to love me if you don't wanna
Don't act like I mean nothing
But if you're gonna, well, then you better

Unkiss me,
Untouch me
Untake this heart
And I'm missing
Just one thing
A brand new start

Can't erase this,
Can't delete this,
I don't need this,
I can't handle it
I just feel it that you're over us

If I wait here,
If I see you
It won't matter,
What's the point of this?
We're in pieces because you're over us

I lied to my heart 'cause I thought you felt it
You can't light a fire, if the candle's melted
No, you don't have to love me if you don't wanna
Don't act like I mean nothing
But if you're gonna, well, then you better

Unkiss me,
Untouch me
Untake this heart
And I'm missing
Just one thing
A brand new start
So unkiss me
So unkiss me

So, baby, let go
Gotta let go
It's disrespectful
I can handle this
Never ending, kinda run around

Unkiss me,
Untouch me
Untake this heart
And I'm missing
Just one thing
A brand new start
So unkiss me
So unkiss me
Unkiss me

Leaving California

You got in so late

Said that you were leaving
Letting go of us
Where did we go wrong? Oh

Gotta head back East and want to leave tonight
Pack your things and go

Fight to hold on
Put them back together, do it all for love

Lock you in the eyes
Baby please don't go
Oh, yeah

Coming Back For You

Looking at the same sky that we used to lay under
Are you thinking about the love that I took from us

When you close your eyes
Do you see me, love?
Am I keeping you awake?
Would you scare to fly?
Are you giving up?
When you know, you know, you know

You know that I'm coming back for you
Don't you worry, girl
Don't you worry, girl
You know that I'm coming back for you
Don't you worry, girl
I'll be back for you
So you better wait up
Keeping the bed warm for me
All night puttin' your whisper on me
Giving that love and emotion that I know
Doesn't really matter what you do
I'll be back for you
Coming back for you

I know there are millions of miles in between our hearts
But I will come running for you I don't care how far

When you close your eyes
Do you see me, love?
Am I keeping you awake?
Would you scare to fly?
Are you giving up?
When you know, you know, you know

You know that I'm coming back for you
Don't you worry, girl
Don't you worry, girl
You know that I'm coming back for you
Don't you worry, girl
I'll be back for you
So you better wait up
Keeping the bed warm for me
All night puttin' your whisper on me
Giving that love and emotion that I know
Doesn't really matter what you do

Hanging 'round downtown by myself
And I had so much time to sit and think about myself

Lost Stars

(Deluxe Edition Bonus Track)

Please don't see
Just a boy caught up in dreams and fantasies
Please see me
Reaching out for someone I can't see

Take my hand, let's see where we wake up tomorrow
Best laid plans sometimes are just a one night stand
I'll be damned, Cupid's demanding back his arrow
So let's get drunk on our tears

And God, tell us the reason youth is wasted on the young
It's hunting season and the lambs are on the run
Searching for meaning
But are we all lost stars trying to light up the dark?

Who are we?
Just a speck of dust within the galaxy?
Woe is me
If we're not careful turns into reality

But don't you dare let our best memories bring you sorrow
Yesterday I saw a lion kiss a deer
Turn the page, maybe we'll find a brand new ending
Where we're dancing in our tears

And God, tell us the reason youth is wasted on the young
It's hunting season and the lambs are on the run
We're searching for meaning
But are we all lost stars trying to light up the dark?

and I thought I saw you out there crying
and I thought I heard you call my name
and I thought I heard you out there crying
But just the same

And God, give us the reason youth is wasted on the young
It's hunting season and the lambs are on the run
searching for meaning
But are we all lost stars trying to light up the dark?

And I thought I saw you out there crying
And I thought I heard you call my name
And I thought I heard you out there crying
But are we all lost stars trying to light up the dark?
Are we all lost stars trying to light up the dark?
