๐ Lyrics
Well, you're magic, he said
But don't let it all go to your head
Well, I bet if you all had it all figured out
Then you'd never get out of bed
And no doubt
Of all the things that I've read, what he wrote me
Is now sounding like the man I was hoping to be
I keep on keeping it real
'Cause it keeps getting easier, indeed
He's the reason that I'm laughing
Even if there's no one else
He said that you've got to love yourself
Yes you do, yes you do, yeah
He says you shouldn't mumble when you speak
But keep your tongue up in your cheek
And if you stumble on to something better
Remember that it's humble that you seek
You got all the skill you need, individuality
You got something
Call it gumption, call it anything you want
Because when you play the fool now
You're only fooling everyone else
You're learning to love yourself
You're learning to love, you are it's true, all true, that it's all you
There's no price to pay, oh no
When you give it what you take
That's why it's easy to thank you, you
I'm thankin' you
For what you do, thankin' all of you
Let's say, take a break from the day
And get back to the old garage
Because life's too short anyway
But at least it's better than average
As long as you got me and I got you
You know we'll have a lot to go around
I'll be your friend, your other brother
Another love to come and comfort you
And I'll keep reminding
If it's the only thing that I ever do
I will always love you
You, you, you
I will always love you
It's you, it's you, it's you that I love
It's you that I love, love, la-la-love
It's you I love it's you
It's you I love, it's you I love, it's you, it's you I love
It's you I love, it's true I love its true, it's you I love
Ooh, it's you I love
I wish the wild was a love like you
I wish the wind would blow me through
Another opportunity to approach you
Another telepathic rendezvous
I wish you well with your weapons of jargon
You got a double-sided lexicon
I gotta try to keep your attention
Gotta write using less emoticons
Gotta figure out the snooze alarm
I wanna lay in your place 'til dawn
I wanna play in your park come on, now
Let me see the other upper echelon
It's you I love
It's you I love
It's you I love
Say, hold your own
And know your own name
Go your own way
Just hold your own
And know your own name
Go your own way
It's easy, to hold your own
And go your own way
And know your own name
Climb up over the top
Save yourself for the moment
You've got to find out for yourself
Whether or not you're truly trying
Why not give it a shot?
Shake it, take control
And inevitably wind up finding for yourself
All the strengths that you have inside are still rising
Climb up over the top
Survey the state of your soul
You've got to find out for yourself
Whether or not you're truly trying
Why not give it a shot?
Shake it, take control
Inevitably wind up finding for yourself
All the strengths that you have inside are still rising
Climb up over the top
Survey survey the state of your soul
You've got to find out for yourself
W-wether or not you're true
It's you I love, oh, it's you I love, whoa
It's you I love, I love, I love, I love and I love
Say, climb up over the top
Survey the state of your soul
You've got to find out for yourself
Whether or not you're truly trying
Why not give it a shot?
Shake it, take control
Inevitably wind up finding for yourself
All the strengths that you have inside of you
There's my good friend, Mr. Marion Aquilina, on the guitar
I need some lights in the house, please
Safety goggles may be required for this portion of the show
On the keyboards, Mr. Eric Hinojosa is with us
Bew, right there
On the bass, Mr. Ian Sheridan, all up in this place
Boo, whoa, right atcha
On the drums, Mr. Adam King, the King of England
Right there, whoa
And of course, Mr. Toca Rivera, dot-com, droppin' bombs
Wooh
Thank you guys so much, my name is Jason Mraz, I've had a heck of a time
But don't let it all go to your head
