In Real Life lyrics - Mandy Moore
I just got a front row seat to real life
And now I gotta open up my eyes
It's too late to wait until it feels right
Now I gotta start the long goodbye
I spent every day
Filling every page
How the world revolved around me
When I saw your face
I knew right away
We'd be whoever we wanted to be
In real life
Somebody loves me
In real life
Somebody needs me
I've been seeing friends of mine in real life
Going through the motions, spinning wheels, spinning their wheels
Everything is happening in real time
Rising tide is nipping at my heels
But I'm different now
I'm not sure how
The world don't revolve around me
Coming out of the dark
With you in my arms
We see whatever we needed to see
In real life
Somebody loves me
In real life
Somebody needs me
In real life
The curtains were drawn
The circus moved on
Once I saw who I was in your eyes
Now each minor key
Sounds major to me
And everything feels harmonized
Somebody loves me
Somebody needs me
In real life
Somebody wants me
In real life
In real life
In real life
In real life
In real life...
Heartlands lyrics - Mandy Moore
I always loved that you're a wanderer
But you wander off when things get hard
All of your greatest hits I've ever heard
Are featuring you going way too far
I've made peace with all the pieces
That you left along the way
I've been watching all your seasons
Just I've been waiting for the change
When you're flying a bit too high (Oh-oh-oh)
When you're driving with no hands
I won't say how to live your life
But I'll be here when your heart lands
You make it difficult to be a friend
'Cause I won't agree to disagree
I can be quiet till the bitter end
If that's what you need from me
You've got reasons for the reasons
How it's never quite your fault
I've been watching all your seasons
I've been waiting for the fall
When you're flying a bit too high
When you're driving with no hands
I won't say how to live your life
But I'll be here when your heart lands
If you take off just take all the time you need
The northern star is always where it needs to be
If you take off
Remember to save a seat for me
When you're flying a bit too high
When you're driving with no hands
I won't say how to live your life
But I'll be here when your heart lands
And I'll be when your heart lands
I'll be here when your heart lands
Little Dreams lyrics - Mandy Moore
What's the missing puzzle piece
That's gonna make me whole
Is it some kind of alchemy
Turning lead to gold
Shifted priorities
Shaking up my house
Deep dive on a memory
Got me overwhelmed
Something about the little dreams
Gets us through another day
Rolling with the little dreams
Instead of waiting on a bigger wave
I found it in the lines of my fingerprints
It's written in my DNA
Something about the little dreams, little dreams
Something about the little dreams, little dreams
Having trouble with the melody
But I know the words
A touch of uncertainty
Never really hurts
Craving simplicity
Take only what you need
Found out that everything
Comes down to you and me
Something about the little dreams
Gets us through another day
Rolling with the little dreams
Instead of waiting on a bigger wave
I found it in the lines of my fingerprints
It's written in my DNA
Something about the little dreams, little dreams
Something about the little dreams, little dreams
Telling time with spiderwebs
Digging myself deeper in my mind
What hasn't happened yet
Won't leave me hanging on the line
Something about the little dreams
Gets us through another day
Rolling with the little dreams
Instead of waiting on a bigger wave
I found it in the lines of my fingerprints
It's written in my DNA
Something about the little dreams, little dreams
Something about the little dreams, little dreams
Rolling with the little dreams, little dreams
Just Maybe lyrics - Mandy Moore
There were so many sides to the both of us
We defied geometry
And we thought that it meant there was hope for us
As if hope is all we would need
But now we hang by a thread
We've been pulling on
To see if we could pull it off
Just maybe
We're all that we've got
And that's more than enough
To keep on dreaming
Just maybe
Then again, maybe not
But a maybe's enough
To keep on believing
We were told we were doomed from the start of us
By our friends and family
It's like no one could see the true spark of us
That's just for you and me
But now our moment in time
Is a moment of truth
And I don't know where it ends
Just maybe
We're all that we've got
And that's more than enough
To keep on dreaming
Just maybe
Then again, maybe not
But a maybe's enough
To keep on believing
Are we dangerous? (Are we dangerous?)
Are we medicine? (Are we medicine?)
Is it a little bit of both?
Just maybe
We're all that we've got
And that's more than enough
To keep on dreaming, oh-oh
Just maybe
Then again, maybe not
Oh, but a maybe's enough
To keep on believing
Yeah, a maybe's enough
To keep on believing
Yeah, a maybe's enough
To keep on dreaming
Living In The In Between lyrics - Mandy Moore
She don't dress up on Halloween
She much prefers being herself
She's not some vampire, she's the queen
She's got her own story to tell
She goes to bed at 5 AM
She'll greet the day on either side
She sees the sunrise as her friend
Same with the middle of the night
Living in the in between
Living in the in between
She gave up birthdays as a kid
She never learned to tell the time
She doesn't know how old she is
But you can count the laughing lines
She thrives on being by herself
But she still makes good company
She sent the devil back to hell
But he still calls three times a week
Living in the in between
Living in the in between (In the middle of a dream)
Living in the in between
Living in the in between (Oh-oh-oh)
Living in the in between (Yeah, yeah, we're living)
Living in the in between (Oh-oh-oh)
Living in the in between
Yes, we're living, living in the in between
Living in the — whoa-whoa
Living in the — whoa-whoa
In Other Words lyrics - Mandy Moore
Can a secret stay a secret?
Can there be bitter in the sweetness?
Desert starts to bloom
In the center of our room
Nobody can see it
A secret stays a secret
Can the answer be the question?
Can the chaos be the lesson?
In the first hour of the day
They say it's just a phase
So I need to pay attention
If the answer is the question
In other words
I love you more than I can say
In other words
Can't put it any other way
In other words
You're my favorite cliché
I've ever heard
In other words
Is there light beyond the spectrum
Where we least expect them?
I could fill an empty page
In the center of the stage
Your face is a reflection
Of the light beyond the spectrum
In other words
I love you more than I can say
In other words
Can't put it any other way
In other words
You're my favorite cliché
I've ever heard
In other words
Is the memory a picture
Or is it only just a mixture
Of the endless passing days?
The edges shouldn't fade
But the colors wouldn't flicker
If the memory's a picture
In other words
I love you more than I can say
In other words
Can't put it any other way
In other words
You're my favorite cliché
I've ever heard
In other words
Four Moons lyrics - Mandy Moore
I can see four moons all at once
One in the sky
One in your eye
And two more in our cups
I can hear music in the air
Some in your words
Some with the birds
Some that's not even there
Where do the days go
When did the clock start ticking
Picking up tempo
There ain't a step I'm skipping
I'm in a free flow (Free flow)
Looking at you and thinking
I can see four moons all at once
I can smell our whole history
The dinner we burned
Your favorite shirt
And our very first Christmas tree
I wanna hold your hand a little too much
Step on your toes
Pull you in close
Never really close enough
Where do the days go
When did the clock start ticking
Picking up tempo
There ain't a step I'm skipping
I'm in a free flow (Free flow)
Looking at you and thinking
I can see four moons all at once
Trying to catch every little bit
Before the moment slips away
Calling in sick for the hell of it
Take a second, take a minute, take a day
Where do the days go
When did the clock start ticking
Picking up tempo
There ain't a step I'm skipping
I'm in a free flow (Free flow)
Looking at you and thinking
I can see four moons all at once
I can see four moons all at once
Little Victories lyrics - Mandy Moore
Don't ask me what I really think of the dead
I only love it 'cause you love it
I never thought to drink my coffee in bed
And now I love it 'cause you love it
You don't want to climb a mountain but you set up my tent
And I know you'll hold my purse for me at every event
This kind of living might be hard to accept
But you love it 'cause I love it
All of the little victories
Solving the bigger mysteries
Where you can do you
And I'll do me
Baby we could meet in the middle
All of the work nobody sees
Are all of the best deleted scenes
Where you're being you
And I'm just me
Baby we could meet in the little victories
All the little victories
Don't ask me what I really think of your friends
I only love them 'cause you love them
The way I always fall asleep before 10
I know you love it
You read through every page of every book on your shelf
'Cause everyone wants a little time for themselves
If you need me, I'll be able to tell
I know you love me and I love it
All of the little victories
Solving the bigger mysteries
Where you can do you
And I'll do me
Baby we could meet in the middle
All of the work nobody sees
Are all of the best deleted scenes
Where you're being you
And I'm just me
Baby we could meet in the little victories
All the little victories
All of the grand schemes
Big plans
Daisies
Diamonds
That isn't romance
I'd rather slow dance
I'd rather hold hands
And talk about
All of the little victories
Solving the bigger mysteries
Where you can do you
And I'll do me
Baby we could meet in the middle
All of the work nobody sees
Are all of the best deleted scenes
Where you're being you
And I'm just me
Baby we could meet in the little victories
All the little victories
Heavy Lifting lyrics - Mandy Moore
When the words don't come
You can read my mind
You still hear me
When I want to run
You're not far behind
You always find me
I feel the planets shifting
And now I finally see
You've done all the heavy lifting
Right when nobody asked you to
You've done all the heavy lifting
Now it's my turn to comfort you
To cover you
When you're in the clouds
Let me shine on you
I'll make it clearer
When you can't see yourself
The way I do
I'll be your mirror
The world is spinning faster
It's time to slow things down
You've done all the heavy lifting
Right when nobody asked you to
You've done all the heavy lifting
Now it's my turn to comfort you
To cover you
If there's a way I should be thanking you
I'll never find it in the words
But as I try to make it up to you
I'll always be your little girl
You've done all the heavy lifting
Right when nobody asked you to
You've done all the heavy lifting
Now it's my turn to comfort you
To cover you
Brand New Nowhere lyrics - Mandy Moore
Walking away from the ghost arcade
Through the fog on pier
All the faces I know by name
Have gone missing
Empty cars, windows broken
Long shadows
Walking away from the mess we've made
When we run out of road
Let's find a brand new nowhere
And wherever we go
Is getting us close to somewhere
I can't do it alone
Let's find a brand new nowhere
I was dreaming of paradise
You were in it with me
I bought it all at the asking price
Fully loaded
Big screens, waves of blue light
Imbedded in code
I was drowning in paradise
When we run out of road
Let's find a brand new nowhere
And wherever we go
Is getting us close to somewhere
I can't do it alone
Let's find a brand new nowhere
Brand new nowhere
I've been leaning on memories
A little more than I should
I need to take the future to bed with me
And roll with it
Let's find a brand new nowhere
Is getting us close to somewhere
I can't do it alone
Let's find a brand new nowhere
Let's find a brand new nowhere
Every Light lyrics - Mandy Moore
I hear a lot about you
Much more than I'm hearing from
Stories that swirl around you
Like planets that orbit the sun
I dream my days around you
I cancelled all my plans
Time stands still without you
Or is it moving in ways we don't understand
Till the moment you're ready
I'll keep the champagne on ice
You'll know the house when you get here
'Cause I'll leave on every light
I talk a lot about you
Much more than I probably should
I guess I was always bound to
'Cause no conversation's felt so good
I think I see the future
It's written in your name
Wish it would get here sooner
And fit us both in the frame
Till the moment you're ready
I'll keep the champagne in ice
You'll know the house when you get here
'Cause I'll leave on every light
Till the moment you're ready
I'll keep the champagne in ice
You'll know the house when you get here
'Cause I'll leave on every light
Something To Do With Loneliness lyrics - Mandy Moore
Known unknowns
Screens and phones
Differences between a house and home
Dim the lights
Time for bed
Pick up what the day discarded
Doing things a bit half-hearted
Something to do with loneliness
Remind myself how lucky I am
Changes keep on changing
Into something to do with loneliness
Getting good at fooling myself
It's not so entertaining
But it's something to do with loneliness
All I want
Is what I have
I'm not mixing up the memories with the facts
Pour a drink
Close the door
Time is folding and unfolding
Filling up the glass I'm holding
Something to do with loneliness
Remind myself how lucky I am
Changes keep on changing
Into something to do with loneliness
Getting good at fooling myself
It's not so entertaining
But it's something to do with loneliness
I'm alive
In a different kind of way
The other side
From the moment we were bound
Turned around and
Found a way to be bit less guarded
Doing things more open hearted
Something to do with loneliness
Remind myself how lucky I am
Changes keep on changing
Into something to do with loneliness
Remind myself how lucky I am
The only thing remaining
Is something to do with loneliness
'Til the moment when you're ready
I'll keep the champagne in ice
You'll know the house when you get here
'Cause I'll leave on every light
I'd Rather Lose lyrics - Mandy Moore
I hate looking at my phone
But it's all that I do
What do I need that I can't get from you?
Seems like you're never off the clock
Hands at ten and two
Driving through this world like someone's after you
I'd rather lose
I'd rather lose
If the only way to win
Is by breaking all the rules
I'd rather lose
I'd rather lose
If the only way to win
Is by breaking all the rules
I'd rather lose
Every picture that I take
Every word that I say
Ends up a footnote on my resume
Are you happy with your life?
Am I happy with mine?
Where is the innocence we hid behind?
And who were those kids who knew where to draw the line?
I'd rather lose
I'd rather lose
If the only way to win
Is by breaking all the rules
I'd rather lose
I'd rather lose
If the only way to win
Is by breaking all the rules
I'd rather lose
We only get one chance in this life
And I won't spend it playing with you
Some people roll the dice and some people doctor the truth
I'd rather lose
I'd rather lose
If the only way to win
Is by breaking all the rules
I'd rather lose
I'd rather lose
If the only way to win
Is by breaking all the rules
I'd rather lose
Oh, I'd rather lose
Save A Little For Yourself lyrics - Mandy Moore
Not all pain is black and blue
Strongest people come unglued
When someone gets the best of you
Don't let them take the rest of you
Save a little for yourself
Never give it all away
Save a little for some help
You know you're gonna need someday
You've got a lotta love
Enough to go round
Save a little for yourself
Save a little, oh
Save a little, oh
Found some things you can't control
Somewhere down the rabbit hole
And if you wanna stop feeling invisible
It doesn't take a miracle
Save a little for yourself
Never give it all away
Save a little for some help
You know you're gonna need someday
You've got a lotta love
Enough to go round
Save a little for yourself
Save a little
Love, it's gonna be right there where you left it
Love, it's gonna be closer than you think
Love, it's gonna be all that we are left with
'Cause the love that you give is only as good
As the love that you keep, is only as good
As the love that you give is only as good
As the love that you keep
Save a little for yourself
Never give it all away
Save a little for some help
You know you're gonna need someday
You've got a lotta love
Enough to go round
Save a little for yourself
Save a little love
Save a little love
Save a little, oh
Save a little, oh
Save a little love
Fifteen lyrics - Mandy Moore
Young girl, up early
Wasn't old enough to drive
Took a trip from Seminole County
With her mother by her side
Next up, New York City
World was fallin' at her feet
She thought she was makin' music
But she was only filling seats
No regrets, with a few exceptions
Every wrong turn was the right direction
Still a part of me
Still a part of me
Glowsticks, pink cotton candy
A touch of glitter on her lips
On parade for the radio station
So they'll play her biggest hits
Missed prom, missed graduation
No college in the fall
On the road with a boyband, singin'
For the people in the mall
No regrets, with a few exceptions
Learning to love all the imperfections
That are still a part of me
Still a part of me
Still a part of me
Still a part of me
Somewhere between the demo
And the lonely public eye
So real, real famous
Without even knowin' why
No regrets, with a few exceptions
Every wrong turn was the right direction
Learnin' to love all the imperfections
That are still a part of me
Still a part of me
Still a part of me
Still a part of me
Tryin' My Best, Los Angeles lyrics - Mandy Moore
I always dreamed of this place
Where ocean meets sky
My name on a dotted line
I got caught up in a wave
Of traffic on vine
Stuck here waiting for a sign
Stuck here waiting for a sign
Well I'm tryin' my best, Los Angeles
Till the last sunset, Los Angeles
Well you lit this fire, years ago
And it gets me higher, I can't let it go
And I'm tryin' my best, Los Angeles
Los Angeles
They say it's all who you know
But I dropped all my names
By now even mine has changed
Sometimes I stare at the phone
Like I'm praying for rain
It'll be here any day
It'll be here any day
And I'm tryin' my best, Los Angeles
Till the last sun sets, Los Angeles
Well you lit this fire, years ago
And it gets me higher, I can't let it go
And I'm tryin' my best, Los Angeles
Los Angeles
More than I imagined
More than I was asking for
Anything can happen
In a city of open doors
Laughing and crying
Either way, you know I'm yours
There's so much left to do
And I'm tryin' my best
Yeah, I'm tryin my best
Well I'm tryin' my best, Los Angeles
Till the last sun sets, Los Angeles
Well you lit this fire, years ago
And it gets me higher, I can't let it go
And I'm tryin' my best, Los Angeles
Los Angeles
Los Angeles
I always dreamed of this place
Where ocean meets sky
Easy Target lryics - Mandy Moore
Out in the light
Facing the wind
Got nothing to hide
Ready to begin
To begin, to begin again
A man's gotta fight
A girl's gotta win
A shift in the tide
This is the world we're living in
I'm out on my own
The easy target
Somewhere beyond the winning and losing
Heart on my sleeve
Right where the truth is
What else could I be?
The easy target
A conscious choice
Yeah, it's one way to live
Through all of the noise
Going out on a limb
Out on a limb again
Say it isn't so
Then say that it is
How do I know
Where the trouble begins and ends?
I'm out on my own
The easy target
Somewhere beyond the winning and losing
Heart on my sleeve
Right where the truth is
What else could I be?
The easy target
The nameless and the faceless take their aim
I wonder if they notice, no one's listening
I'm out on my own
The easy target
Somewhere beyond the winning and losing
Heart on my sleeve
Right where the truth is
What else could I be?
The easy target
When I Wasn't Watching lyrics - Mandy Moore
Where was I when this was going down?
Maybe sleeping in, maybe outta town?
I spent my whole life waiting patiently
Convinced it all would come to me
My favorite version of me disappeared
Through longer days and shorter years
So where was I when this was going down?
Assumed the world would come around
To who we are
When no one is looking
When nobody's looking
What I became
When I wasn't watching
When I wasn't watching
A little lost, a little rough
I asked myself, "Have ya had enough?"
How do I start to retrace the steps
I haven't even taken yet
The fear of what I'm facing in the mirror
Stops me cold and leaves me here
A little lost, a little rough
The lack of answers all led up
To who we are
When no one is looking
Nobody's looking
What I became
When I wasn't watching
When I wasn't watching
Who we are
When no one is looking
Nobody's looking
What I became
When I wasn't watching
When I wasn't watching
When I wasn't watching
When I wasn't watching
