音乐咖啡厅:Maroon 5 - Maps

 [Verse 1]

 

I miss the taste of a sweeter life¹

 

I miss the conversation²

 

I'm searching³ for a song tonight

 

I'm changing all of the stations

 

I like to think that we had⁴ it all

 

We drew a map to a better place

 

But on that road I took⁵ a fall

 

Oh, baby, why did⁶ you run away?

 

 

 

[Pre-Chorus]

 

I was⁷ there for you

 

In your darkest⁸ times

 

I was there for you

 

In your darkest night

 

 

 

[Chorus]

 

But I wonder⁹, where were you?

 

When I was at my worst¹⁰

 

Down on my knees

 

And you said¹¹ you had my back

 

So I wonder, where were you?

 

All the roads you took came¹² back to me

 

So I'm following¹³ the map that leads¹⁴ to you

 

The map that leads to you

 

Ain't nothing I can do

 

The map that leads to you

 

Following, following, following to you

 

The map that leads to you

 

Ain't nothing I can do

 

The map that leads to you

 

Following, following, following

 

 

 

[Verse 2]

 

I hear your voice¹⁵ in my sleep at night

 

Hard to resist¹⁶ temptation¹⁷

 

'Cause¹⁸ something strange¹⁹ has come over me

 

Now, I can't get over you

 

No, I just can't get over you

 

 

 

[Pre-Chorus]

 

I was there for you

 

In your darkest times

 

I was there for you

 

In your darkest night

 

 

 

[Chorus]

 

But I wonder, where were you?

 

When I was at my worst

 

Down on my knees

 

And you said you had my back

 

So I wonder, where were you?

 

All the roads you took came back to me

 

So I'm following the map that leads to you

 

The map that leads to you

 

Ain't nothing I can do

 

The map that leads to you

 

Following, following, following to you

 

The map that leads to you

 

Ain't nothing I can do

 

The map that leads to you

 

 

 

[Bridge]

 

Oh, oh, oh, ah²⁰

 

Ooh, oh, oh, ah

 

Yeah, yeah, yeah, ah

 

Aha, ah, mmm, ah

 

Oh, I was there for you

 

Oh, in your darkest times

 

Oh, I was there for you

 

Oh, in your darkest night

 

Oh, I was there for you

 

Oh, in your darkest times

 

Oh, I was there for you

 

Oh, in your darkest night

 

 

 

[Chorus]

 

But I wonder, where were you?

 

When I was at my worst

 

Down on my knees

 

And you said you had my back

 

So I wonder, where were you?

 

All the roads you took came back to me

 

So I'm following the map that leads to you

 

The map that leads to you

 

Ain't nothing I can do

 

The map that leads to you

 

Following, following, following to you

 

The map that leads to you

 

Ain't nothing I can do

 

The map that leads to you
