Justin Bieber Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'll pick up the pieces if you come undone
Painting stars up on your ceiling
'Cause you wish that you could find some feeling, yeah, you
You know you could call me if you need someone
I need you to hold on
Heaven is a place not too far away
We all know I should be the one to say we all make mistakes
Take my hand and hold on
Tell me everything that you need to say
'Cause I know how it feels to be someone
Feels to be someone who loses their way
Looking for answers in a place unknown
You need the connection but you can't get close
Painting stars up on your ceiling
'Cause you wish that you could find some feeling, yeah, you
You know you can call me if you need someone
I need you to hold on
Heaven is a place not too far away, yeah
We all know I should be the one to say we all make mistakes
Take my hand and hold on
Tell me everything that you need to say
'Cause I know how it feels to be someone
Feels to be someone who loses their way
Midnight 'til morning, call if you need somebody
I will be there for you (I will be there for you)
Midnight 'til morning, call if you need somebody
I will be there for you
I need you to hold on
Heaven is a place not too far away
We all know I should be the one to say we all make mistakes
Take my hand and hold on
Tell me everything that you need to say
'Cause I know how it feels to be someone, ooh yeah
Feels to be someone who loses their way
Midnight 'til morning, call if you need somebody
I will be there for you, oh yeah yeah
Midnight 'til morning, call if you need somebody
I will be there for you
