May Lyrics

Well I'm standing, I'm waiting
I'm falling more in love with you
Everytime I find myself here
And what I feel for you, it can't be contained
And how I long for you to come
I want to get carried away by you

And everything I want is everything you are
And everything I am is yours
It's yours and yours alone
Everything I want, you are

I've got nothing to lose except myself
I can do without 'cause I'll just get in your way
So here I am I know it's not a lot
But all of it is yours
& by letting go I felt so much more

And everything I want is everything you are
And everything I am is yours
It's yours & yours alone (it's yours & yours alone)
Everything I want
It's everything you are
And everything I am is yours
It's yours & yours alone (it's yours & yours alone)
It's yours & yours alone (it's yours & yours alone)
It's yours & yours alone (it's yours & yours alone)
It's yours & yours alone (yeah)

I am standing, I am waiting
I'm following
With hopes of getting closer
I'd do anything
I am running
Not sure where I'm going and going as fast as I can
And I'm trusting
That you'll lead me
and carry me the rest of the way

And everything I want is everything you are
And everything I am is yours
It's yours & yours

Well I'm standing, I'm waiting
I'm falling more in love with you
Everytime I find myself here
And what I feel for you, it can't be contained 
And how I long for you to come
I want to get carried away by you

And everything I want is everything you are
And everything I am is yours
It's yours and yours alone
Everything I want, you are

I've got nothing to lose except myself
I can do without 'cause I'll just get in your way
So here I am I know it's not a lot
But all of it is yours 
& by letting go I felt so much more

And everything I want is everything you are
And everything I am is yours
It's yours & yours alone (it's yours & yours alone)
Everything I want
It's everything you are 
And everything I am is yours
It's yours & yours alone (it's yours & yours alone)
It's yours & yours alone (it's yours & yours alone)
It's yours & yours alone (it's yours & yours alone)
It's yours & yours alone (yeah)

I am standing, I am waiting
I'm following 
With hopes of getting closer
I'd do anything
I am running 
Not sure where I'm going and going as fast as I can 
And I'm trusting
That you'll lead me 
and carry me the rest of the way

And everything I want is everything you are
And everything I am is yours 
It's yours & yours alone (it's yours & yours alone)
Everything I want 
It's everything you are 
And everything I am is yours 
It's yours & yours alone (it's yours & yours alone)
It's yours & yours alone (it's yours & yours alone)
It's yours & yours alone (it's yours & yours alone)
It's yours & yours alone (it's yours & yours alone)
Yours & yours alone (it's yours & yours alone)

And everything I want is everything you are
And everything I am is yours 
It's yours & yours

Keep it true to the song

Fix what’s wrong, but don’t rewrite what the artist wrote. Stick to the official released version — album booklet, label site, verified lyric video, etc. If you’re guessing, pause and double-check.

Respect the structure

Songs have rhythm. Pages do too. Leave line breaks where they belong. Don’t smash things together or add extra empty space just for looks.

Punctuation counts (but vibe-editing doesn’t)

Correct typos? Yes. Re-punctuating a whole verse because it ‘looks better’? Probably not. Keep capitalization and punctuation close to the official source.

Don’t mix versions

If you’re editing the explicit version, keep it explicit. If it’s the clean version, keep it clean. No mashups.

Let the lyrics be lyrics

This isn’t the place for interpretations, memories, stories, or trivia — that’s what comments are for. Keep metadata, translations, and bracketed stage directions out unless they’re officially part of the song.

Edit lightly

If two lines are wrong… fix the two lines. No need to bulldoze the whole page. Think ‘surgical,’ not ‘remix.’

When in doubt, ask the crowd

Not sure what they’re singing in that fuzzy bridge? Drop a question in the comments and let the music nerds swarm. Someone always knows.

I'm surprised this has been up for 3 years and not one comment has been made. Seems to be a love song. I'm more making this comment though because I like Jason's voice on it. It's different to the style he's developed throughout Lifehouse's later stuff, but it's still brilliant. Lifehouse never fail to impress me, even when I'm looking back at their old Blyss stuff.
