We Made It
Louis Tomlinson Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

'Cause we made it
Underestimated
And always underrated
Now we're saying goodbye
Waving to the hard times
Yeah, it's gonna be alright
Like the first time
Met you at your doorstep
Remember how we tasted
Looking into your eyes
Baby, you were still high
Never coming down with your hand in mine

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Oh my, I remember those nights
Meet you at your uni', cheap drinks
Drink 'em all night
Staying out 'til sunrise
Share a single bed and tell each other what we dream about
Things we'd never say to someone else out loud
We were only kids, just tryna work it out
Wonder what they'd think if they could see us now, yeah

'Cause we made it
Underestimated
And always underrated
Now we're saying goodbye
Waving to the hard times
Knew that we would be alright
From the first time
Met you at your doorstep
Remember how we tasted
Looking into your eyes
Baby, you were still high
Never coming down with your hand in mine

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

Oh, God, what I could've become
Don't know why they put all of this on us when we're so young
Done a pretty good job dealing with it all
When you're here, don't need to say no more
Nothing in the world that I would change it for
Singing something poppy on the same four chords
Used to worry 'bout it but I don't no more, yeah

'Cause we made it
Underestimated
And always underrated
Now we're saying goodbye
Waving to the hard times
Smoke something, drink something
Yeah, just like the first time
Met you at your doorstep
Remember how we tasted
Looking into your eyes
Baby, and we're still high
Never coming down with your hand in mine

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah) with your hand in mine
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
No, no, no, no
'Cause we made it
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Yeah, 'cause we made it
(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
Never coming down with your hand in mine

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)




(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)

'Cause we made it
Porque nós conseguimos

Underestimated and always underrated
Mesmo subestimados e sempre desmerecidos

Now we're saying goodbye, waving to the hard times
Agora estamos acenando e nos despedindo dos tempos difíceis

Yeah, it's gonna be alright like the first time
Sim, vai ficar tudo bem como na primeira vez

Met you at your doorstep; remember how it tasted
Te encontrei na sua porta; ainda me lembro do gosto

Looking into your eyes, baby, you were still high
Olhando nos seus olhos, amor, você ainda estava nas nuvens

Never coming down with your hand in mine
Nunca vamos descer com a sua mão na minha


(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Sim, sim, sim, sim)

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Sim, sim, sim, sim)

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Sim, sim, sim, sim)


Oh my, I remember those nights
Nossa, eu me lembro daquelas noites

Meet you at your uni, cheap drinks, drink 'em all night
Te encontrar na sua faculdade, bebidas baratas, beber a noite toda

Staying out 'til sunrise
Ficar na rua até o Sol nascer

Share a single bed and tell each other what we dream about
Dividir uma cama de solteiro e contar um ao outro nossos sonhos

Things we'd never say to someone else out loud
Coisas que nunca diríamos a alguém em voz alta

We were only kids just tryna work it out
Nós éramos apenas crianças tentando fazer isso dar certo

Wonder what they'd think if they could see us now, yeah
Me pergunto o que eles pensariam se pudessem nos ver agora, sim


'Cause we made it
Porque nós conseguimos

Underestimated and always underrated
Mesmo subestimados e sempre desmerecidos

Now we're saying goodbye (goodbye), waving to the hard times
Agora estamos acenando e nos despedindo dos tempos difíceis

Knew that we would be alright from the first time
Eu sabia que ficaríamos bem desde a primeira vez

Met you at your doorstep; remember how it tasted
Te encontrei na sua porta; ainda me lembro do gosto

Looking into your eyes, baby, you were still high
Olhando nos seus olhos, amor, você ainda estava nas nuvens

Never coming down with your hand in mine
Nunca vamos descer com a sua mão na minha


(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Sim, sim, sim, sim)

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Sim, sim, sim, sim)

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Sim, sim, sim, sim)

(Yeah, oh)
(Sim, oh)


Oh God, what I could've become
Oh Deus, o que eu poderia ter me tornado

Don't know why they put all of this on us when we're so young
Não sei por que nos colocam tanto peso quando somos tão jovens

Done a pretty good job dealing with it all
Fiz um bom trabalho lidando com tudo

When you're here, don't need to say no more
Quando você está aqui, não precisa dizer mais nada

Nothing in the world that I would change it for
Não trocaria isso por nada no mundo

Singing something pop-y on the same four chords
Cantando algo pop nos mesmos quatro acordes

Used to worry 'bout it but I don’t no more, yeah
Costumava me preocupar com isso, mas não mais, sim


'Cause we made it
Porque nós conseguimos

Underestimated and always underrated
Mesmo subestimados e sempre desmerecidos

Now we're saying goodbye (goodbye), waving to the hard times
Agora estamos acenando e nos despedindo dos tempos difíceis

Smoke something, drink something, yeah, just like the first time
Fumando algo, bebendo algo, sim, exatamente como na primeira vez

Met you at your doorstep; remember how we tasted
Te encontrei na sua porta; ainda me lembro do gosto

Looking into your eyes, baby, you were still high
Olhando nos seus olhos, amor, você ainda estava nas nuvens

Never coming down with your hand in mine
Nunca vamos descer com a sua mão na minha


(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Sim, sim, sim, sim)

With your hand in mine
Com a sua mão na minha

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Sim, sim, sim, sim)

No, no, no, no
Não, não, não, não

'Cause we made it
Porque nós conseguimos

Yeah, 'cause we made it
Sim, porque nós conseguimos

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Sim, sim, sim, sim)

Never coming down with your hand in mine
Nunca vamos descer com a sua mão na minha

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Sim, sim, sim, sim)

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Sim, sim, sim, sim)

(Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah)
(Sim, sim, sim, sim)

I AM LITERALLY REALLY SO DAMN PROUD OF LOUIS TOMLINSON.
He's so brave, he has seen so much in his life and may be most of what we don't even have any idea about but still he rose up from it. Had the courage to leave all that pain behind. And continue living. Sometimes the bravest thing you can do is to continue living with what you love and Lou is an classic example of it.
He has no idea how much he means to so many people, If he knew about it he would have busted into tears I am sure.
I LOVE YOU BOO BEAR💙
