We Were Made for This Lyrics

[Verse 1]
I woke up on Angel Island in your arms
To the smell of burning bridges
And the sound of those alarms in my head
We should have stayed in bed
But we held them up for ransom anyway
When the coldest days of winter
Were the summers that we took aim at the Bay
And grateful wasn't dead

[Hook 1]
And like your lips were only made for me to kiss
Oh-oh-oh-oh
We were made for this

[Verse 2]
While the girls all danced beneath a Burning Man
And The Last Waltz did somersaults
To finish off The Band where they began
In a wonder Winterland

All we ever wanted was to be alone
Learning how to fly to Sly
Trying to find home
Underneath the Family Stone


[Hook 2]
And just like New Year's Day was made to reminisce
Oh-oh-oh-oh
We were made for this
[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 3]
Love and stardust settle on us like a net
While Buckley's "Hallelujah" fills our ears from your cassette
While my heart stops beating
And you stop breathing, Juliette

[Hook 3]
You're the only thing I'm ever gonna miss
Oh-oh-oh-oh
We were made for this

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 [?]
