Coldplay
Lizzo Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Look at the stars, look how they shine for you
And everything you do
And everything you do

In Tulum, we pretended we're married
And that little tiny house was our home
It was so freeing to know that we made it
To know that I never ever will be alone

All we had was time
And at the front of my mind
I was so close to leavin' the world behind with you, ooh-ooh

And I just know it
That in this life
My love is you, ooh
(And everything you do)

Going to sleep, holding hands at the sunrise
Waking up, holding hands in the rain
I feel so goofy, I don't really do this
But with you, it's healing how I feel pain

It made me sad, I cried
Singing Coldplay in the night
Dancing to no music just feels right with you
Ooh, ooh

And I just know it (I just know it)
That in this life (ah)
My love is you
(And everything you do)
And I just know it (I just know it)
That in this life (ah)
My love is you, ooh
(And everything you do)

My defense mechanism kicks in
Makes me run, run away from the real
It's easy to cut you down while I close me up
Instead of telling you how I feel (ah-ah-ah)
And we waited so long, but the sex is so good (ah-ah-ah)
Five years in the making, didn't know if we would (ah-ah-ah)
Do you say this shit to other people? (Ah-ah-ah)
I don't think that I could (I don't think that I could, no)
I don't think that I could (I don't think that I could, no)
I don't think that I could (I don't think I could)
I don't think that I could (I don't think I could)
I don't think that I could (ooh, ooh)

And I just know it (I just know it)
That in this life (ah)
My love is you (you, you, you)
(And everything you do) (you, you)
And I just know it (I just know it)
That in this life (ah)




My love is you, ooh
(And everything you do) (you, ooh-hoo)

"Coldplay"

Look at the stars, look how they shine for you
And everything you do, and everything you do

In Tulum, we pretend we're married
And that little tiny house was a home
It was so freeing, to know that we made it
To know that I never ever, will be alone

All we had was time
And at the front of my mind
I was so close to leaving the world behind with you, ooh

And I just know it
That in this life
My love is you (And everything you do)

Going to sleep, holding hands at the sunrise
Waking up, holding hands in the rain
I feel so goofy, I don't really do this
But with you is healing how I feel pain

It made me sad, I cried
Singing Coldplay in the night
Dancing to no music just feels right with you, ooh

And I just know it
That in this life
My love is you (And everything you do)
And I just know it
That in this life

I don't think I could, I don't think that I could
I don't think I could, I don't think that I could

And I just know it
That in this life
My love is you (And everything you do)
And I just know it
That in this life
My love is you (And everything you do)

I would never have guess Lizzo would use a Quelle Chris beat. The main instrumental is from the song Sudden Death. She did an amazing job on this, I love it!

Mello Music Group

Shout to Lizzo for making such a beautiful song! Thank you to everyone for making this one happen. Quelle Chris x Chris Keys on the beat w/ Ricky Reed. Amazing.

Muzik Trabolee

From Sudden Death to here. Mind blown! How worlds collide to bring us beautiful things like this. Sudden Death was my favorite jam on Innocent Country 2

Hey, I’m here cause I’m a HUGE Coldplay fan. Overall, enjoying this song and she did an excellent job at sampling yellow without basically reusing the song. definitely gonna add it to my playlist. Also, are there any suggestions for a person new to Lizzo to listen to first? Thanks! ❤️🫶
