[Verse 1] Corner shop, October rain Your sweater torn, my heart the same You laughed — the sirens in the street Stopped — just to hear you speak I had no words, I had no plan Just a boy trying to be a man [Pre-Chorus] And in that moment — I knew Oh, I knew [Chorus - the vow] You are my everything! Now that I found you, please don't break my heart! You are my everything! In this world of breaking — be the part that stays! You are my everything! Take it — all of it — every beating part! You are my everything! [Verse 2] We walked the estates, past the wire You said “the city’s on fire” I said “let it burn, I don’t care If you’re not there” Kiss on the cheek outside your door Your mother calling from the second floor I stood under that orange light And prayed for the first time in my life — right [Pre-Chorus 2 - softer] Innocent — we are innocent Don’t let them tell us what love isn’t [Chorus 2 - bigger, desperate] You are my everything! Now that I found you, please don't break my heart! You are my everything! You’re the prayer I didn’t know by heart! You are my everything! If I lose you now — I lose every part! [Bridge - the Bono confessional, drums drop to tom heartbeat] I don’t have a house I don’t have a ring I don’t have anything — But I have everything — when I have you And if the world falls down Let it fall down Let it fall down — on us two [Breakdown - shout into the sky] YOU! — ARE! — MY! — EVERYTHING! Don’t let go! Don’t let go! [Final Chorus - anthem, raw throat] YOU ARE MY EVERYTHING! Now that I found you, please don’t break my heart! YOU ARE MY EVERYTHING! Hold me here on this street — where we start! YOU ARE MY EVERYTHING! I was nothing before — now I’m something — Because you — are my — everything! [Outro - ringing guitar fades] My everything... My everything... Please don’t break my heart.
