Niall Horan - The Show Lyrics

 Niall Horan - The Show Lyrics


Life is like a board game some of the time

Mistakes and heartbreaks are no crime

But there’s a light creepin’ through under broken skies

Got plans better hurry cause time flies

Hold tight, get ready for the ride


If everything was easy, nothing ever broke

If everything was simple, how would we know

How to fix your tears, how to fake a show

How to paint a smile, yeah how would we know

How good we have it though


Life is like a dance floor some of the time

(life is like a dance floor some of the time)

Dancin’ with the stars oh every night

Gravity comes and wraps her arms around

you again

It’s all fun and games until the party ends

Hold tight, get ready for the ride


If everything was easy, nothing ever broke

If everything was simple, how would we know

How to fix your tears, how to fake a show

How to paint a smile, yeah how would we know

How good we have it though


Looking at the sun our whole lives

(We’re blinded by the lights)

Looking at the sun our whole lives

(We’re blinded by the lights)

Oooh

We’re still not ready for the ride


If everything was easy, nothing ever broke

If everything was simple, how would we know

How to fix your tears, how to fake a show

How to paint a smile, yeah how would we know, oh

If everything was easy, nothing ever broke


If everything was simple, how would we know

How to fix your tears, how to fake a show

How to paint a smile, yeah how would we know

How good we had it though,

How good we had it, no?

So hold tight, get ready for the ride
