You and the Music Lyrics

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
(Ooohh!) When you speak, a symphony begins
Melodies of a thousand violins
When you touch me, baby
My horn starts to play
To the beat of a soulful serenade

[Bridge]
Oh, maestro, my heart sings along
Keeping time with each stroke of your baton

[Pre-Chorus]
Perfect rhythm, sweet harmony
Makes me want to dance
Makes me want romance
Puts me in a trance

[Chorus]
Baby, I can use it
You, you and music!

[Instrumental Interlude]

[Verse 2]
When you speak, a symphony begins
Melodies of a thousand violins
When you touch me, baby
My horn starts to play
To the beat of a soulful serenade
[Bridge]
Ooh-oh-oh, maestro, my heart sings along
Keeping time with each stroke of your baton

[Pre-Chorus]
Perfect rhythm, sweet harmony
Makes me want to dance
Makes me want romance
Puts me in a trance

[Chorus]
(Ooohh!) Baby, I can use it
You, you, you and music!
(I said) Baby, I can use it
You, you, you and music!

[Outro]
You and music!
You and music!
You and music!
You and music!
(Ooohh!) Baby, I can use it
You, you, you and music
Baby, I can use it
You, you, you and music
(Ooohh!) Baby, I can use it

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
