Everything I Did to Get to You (from Songland) Songtext
von Ben Platt

I′ll admit the fact that I
Settled for somebody
Just to fight the lonely
Put myself out on the line
Tried to change the old me
Changin' almost broke me

Been the life of the party
Done the worst that I could do
Chasin′ love
That was pointless
'Til it pointed me to you

All the hearts I ever held
Just held me back
I've been bruised and burned
But somehow I′m intact
All the times I thought I might have reached the end
I′d do it all again


Everything I did to get to you
Everything, everything
Everything I did to get to you
Everything, everything

On the road to where we are
I think I might've lost me
Somewhere in the city
But you saw me from the start
You see the world that I see
And you don′t try to fix me

Been the life of the party
Done the worst that I could do
Chasin' love
That was pointless
′Til it pointed me to you

All the hearts I ever held
Just held me back
I've been bruised and burned
But somehow I′m intact
All the times I thought I've might have reached the end
I'd do it all again


Everything I did to get to you
Everything, everything
Everything I did to get to you
Everything, everything (oh)
Everything I did to get to you, baby
Everything, everything (ooh)
Everything, everything (ooh)

On the road to where we are
I think I might′ve lost me
Somewhere in the city

All the hearts I ever held
Just held me back
I′ve been bruised and burned
But somehow I'm intact
All the times I thought I′ve might have reached the end
I'd do it all again

Everything I did to get to you
Everything, everything (oh)
Everything I did to get to you
Everything, everything (oh)
Everything I did for you
I did for you
