A Band Break-(up?) from March 2016
On Aug 23, 2015, The Sun newspaper in the UK reported that the band would "take a break" from March 2016, after they finish promoting their fifth studio album Made in the A.M.. A source said, "The guys have been together for five years, which is an incredible run for any boy band. They fully deserve to have at least a year to work on their own projects. There is absolutely no bad blood between them and they are all 100% behind the decision. It is definitely not a split and they fully intend to get back together at some time in the future."
Gotta Be You
One Direction Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
'Cause I'm the foolish one that you anointed with your heart
I tore it apart
And girl what a mess I made upon your innocence
And no woman in the world deserves this
But here I am asking you for one more chance
Can we fall, one more time?
Oh and if you walk away I know I'll fade
'Cause there is nobody else
It's gotta be you
Only you
It's gotta be you
Only you
Now girl I hear it in your voice and how it trembles
When you speak to me I don't resemble, who I was
You've almost had enough
And your actions speak louder than words
And you're about to break from all you've heard
Don't be scared, I ain't going no where
I'll be here, by your side
No more fears, no more crying
But if you walk away
I know I'll fade
'Cause there is nobody else
It's gotta be you
Only you
It's gotta be you
Only you
Oh girl, can we try one more, one more time?
One more, one more, can we try?
One more, one more time
I'll make it better
One more, one more, can we try?
One more, one more,
Can we try one more time to make it all better?
'Cause its gotta be you
Its gotta be you
Only you
Only you
It's gotta be you
Only you
It's gotta be you
Only you

The truthful lyrics of the song: born this way:
There is a problem about who we are, we live with sinful nature.
We all are called to REPENTANCE, to change our minds and our hearts.
We all are called back HOME, but PRIDE keeps us far.
So lets humble ourselves before GOD/CHRIST and lets answer to the calling.
We have sinned and felled short in the glory of GOD and without repenting we are at the wrong path.
How can we ask for love if there is none in us, we abuse ourselves and others daily.
How can we say we`re good if only do is sin, we telling lies, stealing lives, and destroying the light.
Yea we were born a sinner, lifelong sinful nature, but now we all are called to have new birth.
Don`t stay a sinner, become a new creature in Christ who promise to give you a warm heart.
Yea we were born sinners, but in Christ can we be brand new, without a sin of any kind.
Be you black or white, small or great, GOD through Christ calls all home.
Are we gonna answer or is our hearts grown cold? Our eyes and ears have we closed?
Are we all lost cases or is there still a chance that some of us shall be saved?
If we could change our lives, would we took the chance?
Or are we quick to say: “no, thanks, im good”?

Directioners stayed when Zayn left
Directioners stayed when they went in hiatus
Directioners stayed even if they said they hiatus was only 18 months
Directioners stayed even if they didn't have a reunion on their 10th anniversary
After 10 years, Directioners are still here supporting them & will stay as a family even if they won't come back
