Lyrics

These are the lyrics to our song 'Light Me Up'. We have identified when there is a different band member singing by using a different colour font. Although in the band Parade, there are five members, and there are only three of us so we are going to have to share out the lyrics more but by doing this we have to make sure it is realistic and that the audience cannot tell that there is five voices rather than three. The lyrics which we can all sing (the choruses) are indicated in black font.

00:09   You gotta light me up
00:11   I’m not feelin’ A romantic boy
00:13   But if you think you’re worth it
00:15   Light me up up up
00:19   Light me up up up

00:22   Got my girls with me running
00:24   We’re running free
00:24   Lovin’ life and we don’t look back
00:28   Yeah there’s gotta be some chemistry
00:30   For a boy to steer me off this track, yeah

00:34   I see what you do
00:35   Clocked your every move
00:36   Think your deal is sealed
00:38   But you’ve got so much to prove
00:40   Need to take me higher
00:42   Maybe i won’t deny ya

00:43   But it’s gonna take more

00:45   oooh
00:46   You wanna get me close
00:49   oooh
00:50   In your fantasy

00:52   In the dark hoṗefully pursuing what you see
00:54   You gotta, you gotta

00:56   You gotta light me up
00:58   I’m not feelin’ A romantic boy
01:00   But if you think you’re worth it
01:02   Light me up
01:04   When you get my head t-turnin’
01:06   Boy you’re learnin’, learnin’ , learnin’
01:08   Light me up
01:10   You gotta smoke me like a cigarette
01:12   and keep me burnin’, burnin’
01:13   Light me up up up
01:16   Light me up up up

01:20   Yeah we’re coming through
01:22   I’m seein’ you
01:24   You make your move But i don’t want that
01:26   I said you need to take me higher
01:27   Maybe i won’t deny ya
01:29   But it’s gonna take more
01:32   oooh
You wanna get me close
oooh
In your fantasy
In the dark hopefully pursuing what you see
You gotta, you gotta
You gotta light me up
I’m not feelin’
A romantic boy
But if you think you’re worth it
Light me up
When you get my head t-turnin’
Boy you’re learnin’, learnin’ , learnin’
Light me up
You gotta smoke me like a cigarette
and keep me burnin’, burnin’
Light me up up up
Light me up up up

You gotta light me up
Li Li
You gotta light me up
Fair play
Not many tried harder
Sorry but you gotta wait a little longer
I ain’t saying that tonight it’s game over
‘Cos i told ya

You gotta light me up
I’m not feelin’
A romantic boy
But if you think you’re worth it
Light me up
When you get my head t-turnin’
Boy you’re learnin’, learnin’ , learnin’
Light me up
You gotta smoke me like a cigarette
and keep me burnin’, burnin’
Light me up up up
Light me up up up
Light me up up up
Light me up up up
Light me up up up
Light me up up up
Light me up up up
Light me up up up
Light me up up up
Light me up up up
