Put Your Hearts Up

**Put Your Hearts Up** is the debut single of American singer and actress Ariana Murphy. The song was intended for Ariana's debut album Daydreamin'.

## Recording and writing

The writer of this song has been reported incorrectly. Ariana did not write the single with Linda Perry for Grande's upcoming debut album set to be released in early 2012. The song was actually written by BC Jean (best known for Beyonce's "If I Were A Boy") in a co-write with Matt Squire and Martin Johnson and includes a sample of "Hey Yey Yey" from the song What's Up? written by Perry for 4 Non Blondes debut album.

## Trivia

* The song has relatively simple lyrics, emphasizing that one only needs to put one's heart into anything to make a difference, no matter who you are.

## Lyrics

Let me see you put your hearts up, yeah

Let me see you put your hearts up, yeah

If we give a little love, maybe we can change the world (change the world)

You think you're so small

Like you're itty bitty.

Just one match in the lights of the city

Walking by strangers on the side of the street

Like a quarter in a cup'll get 'em up on their feet, like

You think you're never gonna make your mark

Sit back and watch the world while it falls apart, like

Out of sight, out of mind, like, like

It's just a waste of time,

Like, like, like

Hey yeah yeah yeah yeah

Hey yeah yeah

If we give a little love

Maybe we can change the world (change the world)

I said

Hey yeah yeah yeah yeah

Hey yeah yeah

Sing it if you're with me

All you boys and all you girls

Let me see you put your hearts up, yeah

Let me see you put your hearts up, yeah

If we give a little love maybe we can change the world (change the world)

Wishing well, shooting star in the sky

We can do anything if we try

Can't resurrect Gandhi, resurrect king

But if we put our heads together

We can do anything like

You don't have to be a billionaire

You don't have to have much to show how much you care

Like give a wink, give a kiss

Like give a little happiness

Like like like

Hey yeah yeah yeah yeah

Hey yeah yeah

If we give a little love

Maybe we can change the world (change the world)

I said

Hey yeah yeah yeah yeah

Hey yeah yeah

Sing it if you're with me

All you boys and all you girls

Let me see you put your hearts up, yeah

Let me see you put your hearts up, yeah

If we give a little love maybe we can change the world (yeah)

Don't let em bring you down now, down now

Don't let em bring you down now, down now

Ain't got nothing but love now, love now

Ain't got nothing but love now, love now

Don't let em bring you down now, down now

Don't let em bring you down now, down now

Ain't got nothing but love now, love now

Ain't got nothing but love now, love now!

Hey yeah yeah yeah yeah

Hey yeah yeah

If we give a little love

Maybe we can change the world (change the world)

I said

Hey yeah yeah yeah yeah

Hey yeah yeah

Sing it if you're with me

All you boys and all you girls

Let me see you put your hearts up, yeah

Let me see you put your hearts up, yeah

If we give a little love maybe we can change the world

Let me see you put your hearts up, yeah

Let me see you put your hearts up, yeah

If we give a little love maybe we can change the world

Hey yeah yeah yeah yeah
