  • I've been hearing symphonies
    Before, all I heard was silence
    A rhapsody for you and me
    And every melody is timeless
    Life was stringing me along
    Then you came and you cut me loose
    Was solo, singing on my own
    Now I can't find the key without you

    And now your song is on repeat
    And I'm dancin' on to your heartbeat
    And when you're gone, I feel incomplete
    So, if you want the truth

    I just wanna be part of your symphony
    Will you hold me tight and not let go?
    Symphony
    Like a love song on the radio
    Will you hold me tight and not let go?

    I'm sorry if it's all too much
    Every day you're here, I'm healing
    And I was runnin' out of luck
    I never thought I'd find this feeling
    'Cause I've been hearing symphonies
    Before all I heard was silence
    A rhapsody for you and me
    (A rhapsody for you and me)
    And every melody is timeless

    And now your song is on repeat
    And I'm dancin' on to your heartbeat
    And when you're gone, I feel incomplete
    So, if you want the truth

    I just wanna be part of your symphony
    Will you hold me tight and not let go?
    Symphony
    Like a love song on the radio
    Will you hold me tight and not let go?

    Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
    Ah ah, ah
    Ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah
    Ah ah, ah

    And now your song is on repeat
    And I'm dancin' on to your heartbeat
    And when you're gone, I feel incomplete
    So, if you want the truth (oh)

    I just wanna be part of your symphony
    Will you hold me tight and not let go?
    Symphony
    Like a love song on the radio
    Symphony
    Will you hold me tight and not let go?
    Symphony
    Like a love song on the radio
    Will you hold me tight and not let go? Writer/s: Ammar Malik, Ina Wroldsen, Jack Patterson, Steve McCutcheon

  • Ellis H from CaliforniaThe original lyrics for "Symphony" were much more negative in tone. The first working title was "Music Sounds Better Without You" about a breakup! Although the record label loved the music for the track from the start, they were worried enough to ask for the lyrics to be "flipped". The band was reluctant to consider this at first but in later interviews it seems like they thought that it was a good choice in retrospect...
