All Along Lyrics

[Verse 1]
We stayed up 'till six just watching shit TV in bed
Late-night drive to Tescos to buy cigarettes and bread
I remember clearly how I turned to you and said
"I wish I met you later, I wish I met you later"

[Pre-Chorus]
Were young and I was so naïve
But in my head, that's how it had to be

[Chorus]
And now I'm home
I've been all over the world and I was wrong
And I'm smoking in my bed all on my own
And I can't wait 'til you're awake so I can call
And tell you it was you all along
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
And tell you it was you all along
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)

[Verse 2]
We saw Ed in Manchester, I held you while he played
Every time I hear his songs, it takes me to that place

Even after all we've done
I had the nerve to say
"I wish I met you later, I wish I met you later"
[Pre-Chorus]
Were young and I was so naïve
But in my head, that's how it had to be

[Chorus]
And now I'm home
I've been all over the world and I was wrong
And I'm smoking in my bed all on my own
And I can't wait 'til you're awake so I can call
And tell you it was you all along
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
And tell you it was you all along
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
