Larger Than Life
Backstreet Boys · Millennium
I may run and hide
When you're screamin' my name, alright
But let me tell you now
There are prices to fame, alright
All of our time spent in flashes of light
CHORUS
All you people can't you see, can't you see
How your love's affecting our reality
Every time we're down
You can make it right
And that makes you larger than life
Looking at the crowd
And I see your body sway, c'mon
Wishin' I could thank you in a different way, c'mon
'Cause all of your time spent keeps us alive
CHORUS - repeat
that's right
All of your time spent keeps us alive
CHORUS - repeat
Yeah, every time we're down
Yeah, you can make it right
Yeah, and that's what makes you larger than life
CHORUS - repeat
When you're screamin' my name, alright
But let me tell you now
There are prices to fame, alright
All of our time spent in flashes of light
CHORUS
All you people can't you see, can't you see
How your love's affecting our reality
Every time we're down
You can make it right
And that makes you larger than life
Looking at the crowd
And I see your body sway, c'mon
Wishin' I could thank you in a different way, c'mon
'Cause all of your time spent keeps us alive
CHORUS - repeat
that's right
All of your time spent keeps us alive
CHORUS - repeat
Yeah, every time we're down
Yeah, you can make it right
Yeah, and that's what makes you larger than life
CHORUS - repeat
