Need You Now
Written by Dave Haywood, Charles Kelley, Hillary Scott and Josh Kear
Picture perfect memories scattered all around the floor
Reaching for the phone cause I can’t fight it anymore
And I wonder if I ever cross your mind
For me it happens all the time
CHORUS
It’s a quarter after one
I’m all alone and I need you now
Said I wouldn’t call
But I’ve lost all control and I need you now
And I don’t know how I can do without
I just need you now
Another shot of whiskey can’t stop looking at the door
Wishing you’d come sweeping in the way you did before
And I wonder if I ever cross your mind
For me it happens all the time
REPEAT CHORUS
It’s a quarter after one
I’m a little drunk and I need you now
Said I wouldn’t call
But I’ve lost all control and I need you now
And I don’t know how I can do without
I just need you now
I guess I’d rather hurt than feel nothing at all
REPEAT CHORUS
Oh baby I need you now

You wear a smile like a summer sky
Just shinning down on me and you
I swear your heart is a free bird
On a lazy Sunday afternoon
I love the way that you are up for anything
Never worried bout what people say
That’s right
Oh that’s right
What we got is
Chorus
Just like driving on an open highway
Never knowing what we’re gonna find
Just like two kids baby always trying to live it up, oh
Yeah, that’s our kind of love
That’s our kind of love
Skippin’ rocks and leavin’ footprints
Down there on the riverbank
And always holding hands never making plans
Just livin’ in the moment babe
You get me laughing with those funny faces
You somehow always know just what to say
That’s right
Oh that’s right
What we got is
Repeat Chorus
Oh that’s right
Baby you and I
What we got is
Just like driving on an open highway
Never knowing what we’re gonna find
Just like two kids baby always trying to live it up, oh
Repeat Chorus
Oh that’s our kind of love

She grew up on the side of the road
Where the church bells ring and strong love grows
She grew up good, she grew up slow
Like American honey
Steady as a preacher, free as a weed
Couldn’t wait to get going, but wasn’t quite ready to leave
So innocent, pure and sweet
American honey
Chorus
There’s a wild, wild whisper blowing in the wind
Calling out my name like a long lost friend
Oh, I miss those days as the years go by
Oh, nothing’s sweeter than summertime
And American honey
Get caught in the race of this crazy life
Trying to be everything can make you lose your mind
I just want to go back in time
To American honey
Repeat Chorus
Gone for so long now
I gotta get back to her somehow
To American honey
Repeat Chorus
And American honey

Traffic crawls, cell phone calls
Talk radio screams at me through my tinted window I see
A little girl, rust red minivan, she’s got chocolate on her face
Got little hands and she waves at me
Yeah, she smiles at me
Chorus
Well, hello world
How you been
Good to see you, my old friend
Sometimes I feel cold as steel
Broken like I’m never gonna heal
And I see a light, a little hope in a little girl
Hello world
Every day I drive by a little white church
It’s got these little white crosses
Like angels in the yard
Maybe I should stop on in, say a prayer
Maybe talk to God like he is there
Oh, I know he’s there
Yeah, I know he’s there
Well hello world
How you been
Good to see you, my old friend
Sometimes I feel as cold as steel
And broken like I’m never gonna heal
And I see a light, a little grace, a little faith unfurls
Well hello world
Sometimes I forget what living’s for
And I hear my life through my front door
And I breathe it in
Oh, I’m home again
And I see my wife
Little boy and little girl
Hello world
Hello world
Well the empty disappears
I remember why I’m here
Just surrender and believe
I fall down on my knees
Well hello world
Hello world
Hello world

Went walking through town just the other day
With nothing much to do
As the sun came breaking down through the clouds
I’d never seen the sky so blue
I saw a Cajun man with a red guitar
Singing on the side of the street
I threw a handful of change in his beat-up case
And said play me a country beat
And it sounded like
Met up with some friends outside of town
They were headed towards the lake
I hopped into the back of a jacked up Jeep
Felt the wind upon my face
We got to the spot and the sun was hot
Everybody was feeling fine
So when we jumped on in for a mid-day swim
And we lost all track of time
Chorus
It was a perfect day
What I’d give if I could find a way to stay
Lost in this moment now
Ain’t worried about tomorrow
When you’re busy living in a perfect day
As the moon came out and the fire burned
Everybody was singing along
To some “Ramblin’ Man”, a little Curtis Lowe
And all them feel good songs
We danced all night without a care
No place we’d rather be
Cause these are the days we’ll talk about
When we lived so wild and free
Repeat Chorus
We were sitting in the sand as he grabbed my hand
Then he leaned in for a kiss
I couldn’t help but think with the stars above
It don’t get much better than this
It’s a perfect day
What I’d give if I could find a way to stay
Lost in this moment now
Ain’t worried about tomorrow
When you’re busy living
Feels like dreaming
Slowly drifting through this perfect day

She’s no good for me, I know that she’s a wildflower
She’s got a restlessness, a beautiful mess thing about her
But here I am again, calling her back
Letting her drive me crazy
Chorus
It’s like I love this pain a little too much
Love my heart all busted up
Something bout her, we just don’t work
But I can’t walk away
It’s like I love this pain
It’s just an on again and off again situation
It’s a striking match, a tank of gas combination
But here I am again lighting it up
Knowing that she’ll just burn me
Repeat Chorus
It’s like I love this life, where nothing’s right ‘less something’s wrong
It’s like I’m just not me If I can’t be a sad sad song
Repeat Chorus
It’s like I love this pain
It’s like I love this pain

Everybody keeps telling me I’m such a lucky man
Looking at you standing there I know I am
Barefoot beauty with eyes that blue
Sunshine sure looks good on you, I swear
Oh, I can’t believe I finally found you baby
Happy ever after after all this time
Oh there’s gonna be some ups and downs
But with you to wrap my arms around I’m fine
Chorus
So baby, hold on tight
And don’t let go
Hold on to the love we’re making
‘Cause baby when the ground starts shaking
You gotta know
When you got a good thing
You know you keep on bringing out the best in me
And I need you now even more than the air I breathe
You can make me laugh when I want to cry
This will last forever, I just know
I know
Repeat Chorus
We got a good thing, baby
So hold on tight baby
And don’t let go
Hold on to the love we’re making
‘Cause baby when the ground starts shaking
You gotta know
Oh, you gotta know
Oh, you gotta know
You gotta know
When you got a good thing

Girls in their heels and a skinny pair of blue jeans
Boys in black pearl buttons looking just like Springsteen
Mama says why you wanna play in a silly rock’n’roll band
Well if you stood here mama, I know you’d understand
It’s the lights, it’s the high
It’s the roar of a crowd on a Friday night
Everybody’s screaming out, yeah, yeah, yeah
Everybody sing it out, yeah, yeah, yeah
Get on your feet
If it feels good, it feels right
‘Cause we’re all stars tonight
So sing it out, yeah, yeah, yeah
Hey hey
Let’s get a little rowdy, gonna party all night long
And boys sway with your girls when we play a little slow song
Put your hands in the air, shine a lighter or a cellphone
You better buy another round we ain’t going home
On the floor, in the stands
Tonight we’re all in the band
And we’re screaming out, yeah, yeah, yeah
Everybody sing it out, yeah, yeah, yeah
Get on your feet
If it feels good, it feels right
‘Cause we’re all stars tonight
So sing it out, yeah, yeah, yeah
Everybody’s screaming out, yeah, yeah, yeah
Everybody sing it out, yeah, yeah, yeah
Everybody scream it out, yeah, yeah, yeah
Everybody sing it now, yeah, yeah, yeah
Get on your feet
If it feels good, it feels right
‘Cause we’re all stars tonight
So sing it out, yeah, yeah, yeah
Hey hey

The first time that I saw you
Looking like you did
We were young, we were restless
Just two clueless kids
But if I knew then what I know now
I’d fall in love
On a bus in Chicago
Three rows to the left
You know my heart was racing for you
But we never even met
But if I knew then what I know now
I’d fall in love
Chorus
Cause love only comes once in awhile
Knocks on your door and throws you a smile
And takes every breath, leaves every scar
Speaks to your soul and sings to your heart
And if I knew then what I know now
I’d fall in love
On a summer night in August
In the back seat of my car
Instead of trying to get to know you
I took it way too far
But if I knew then what I know now
I’d fall in love
Repeat Chorus
Oh I used up a lot of chances
I can’t get them back
But if again it comes calling
I’m gonna make it last
Repeat Chorus
Oh if I knew then what I know now
I’d fall in love

Well there’s something ‘bout a woman with my t-shirt on
Hair in her eyes and no makeup on
Standing there smiling with my coffee cup
Yeah there’s something ‘bout a woman that’s easy to love
Yeah there’s something ‘bout a woman that’s a clear blue sky
Ain’t found nothing better that’ll get you high
All the colors of the sun at the end of the day
Yeah there’s something ‘bout a woman makes you feel that way
Chorus
She’s like fire on the mountain
Like some kind of Heaven that’s pourin’ down on me
She’s a child, she’s a lady
She’s got everything that I could ever need
Yeah there’s something ‘bout a woman indeed
Yeah there’s something ‘bout a woman when she gets fixed up
Slips a red dress on and her eyes light up
I love to watch her walking from across the room
Yeah there’s something ‘bout a woman and the way she moves me
She moves me, she moves me
Repeat Chorus
She moves me, she moves me
Oh she moves me
Repeat Chorus
Yeah there’s something ‘bout a woman that makes me still
There’s something ‘bout a woman that always will

Seems I was walking in the wrong direction
I barely recognized my own reflection, oh
Scared of love and scared of life alone
Seems I been playing on the safe side lately
Building walls around my heart to save me, oh
But it’s time for me to let it go
Chorus
Yeah, I’m ready to feel now
No longer am I ‘fraid of the fall down
It must be time to move on now
Without the fear of how it might end
I guess I’m ready to love again
Just when you think that love will never find you
You’ve run away but still it’s right behind you, oh
It’s just something that we can’t control
Repeat Chorus
So come and find me
I’ll be waiting up for you
I’ll be holding out for you tonight
Repeat Chorus
I’m ready to love again
