The Cast of Camp Rock Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

They say that life is a two-way street
When you're not sure
You gotta trust your feet
To know the right way

You can keep on moving with your head down
(Oh) or you can stop and take a look around
(Take a look around)
And that's the choice I've made
(I've made, yeah)

It's for that movie inside your head
Makin' memories we can't forget
And when you can't forget

You're gonna know in your soul
This is what we came here for

So live it loud

Here and now

This moment, it won't be ignored

So why not open up that door?

It's what we came here for

Ooh ooh

Oh, yeah

For every song we let play outside
The melodies we get to ride (To ride)
Every time we sing oh, yeah, yeah, yeah

The friends we've made, the fun we've had
Remembering's gonna make me laugh
It's a beautiful thing (So beautiful)

I wanna send it around the world
(All around the world)
'Cause everybody should feel this good

'Cause when you feel this good

You're gonna know in your soul

This is what we came here for
(This is what we came here for)
So live it loud

Here and now

This moment, it won't be ignored

So why not open up that door?
It's what we came here for

No

The fun's just getting started

Just celebrating where we are

We're lovin' where we are

You're gonna know in your soul
This is what we came here for

Oh, so live it loud, here and now

This moment, it won't be ignored

You're gonna know in your soul

This is what we came here for

So live it loud (Live it loud) here and now
This moment, it won't be ignored

It won't be ignored

So why not open up that door?
(Open up that door)

So come on, open up that door

It's what we came here, oh, yeah

Came here for





It's what we came here, came here for

Dizem que a vida é um caminho de dois sentidos
Quando você não tem certeza
Tem que confiar em seus pés
Para saber o caminho certo

Você pode seguir de cabeça baixa
Ou pode parar e dar uma olhada
É a escolha que eu fiz
(Que fiz)

É para que o filme dentro da sua cabeça
Trazendo memórias que não podemos esquecer
Que não podemos esquecer

Você vai saber
Em sua alma
Que é isso que viemos fazer
Então viva
Aqui e agora
Este momento não vai ser ignorado
Então por que não abrir a porta?
É o que viemos fazer

Para cada musica que não vamos esquecer
E melodias que criamos
Toda vez que cantamos

Os amigos que fizemos
A diversão que tivemos
Lembrando que vai me fazer rir
É uma coisa linda
(Tão linda)

Quero manda-lo ao redor do mundo
Porque todo mundo deve se sentir bem
Todo mundo deve se sentir bem

Você vai saber
Em sua alma
Que é isso que viemos fazer
Então viva
Aqui e agora
Este momento não vai ser ignorado
Então por que não abrir a porta?
É o que viemos fazer

Não
A diversão está apenas começando
Vamos celebrar que está começando
E estou amando onde você está

Você vai saber
Em sua alma
Que é isso que viemos fazer
Então viva
Aqui e agora
Este momento não vai ser ignorado
Você vai saber
Em sua alma
Que é isso que viemos fazer
Então viva
Aqui e agora
Este momento não vai ser ignorado
Então por que não abrir a porta?
Então venha abrir a porta

É o que viemos fazer
É o que viemos
Fazer aqui

@BergmitetheBlueandPointy-cu2hu

It is powerful.

@daphne122

Camp rocks song was so much more meaningful and heartwarming than camp star’s song. Like it gave me the feels as a kid. It was also more inclusive, they included the whole camp while camp star only focused on literally two people. Team camp rock. Don’t come for me
