[James Bay:] From nervous touch and getting drunk To staying up and waking up with you Now we're slipping near the edge Holding something we don't need Oh, this delusion in our heads Is gonna bring us to our knees
[Hook - James Bay:] So come on, let it go Just let it be Why don't you be you And I'll be me Everything that's broke Leave it to the breeze Why don't you be you And I'll be me And I'll be me
Yeah, see as I lay here and get lost into those eyes Can't deny my feelings for your being, they run deep inside And we both know our hunger for some lust is all that's appetized No ties is how it's advertised I'd say we love these moments, but that's half a lie Damn, you're trying to figure me out And in your eyes I see the pain and fear that turns into doubt Yeah, you find peace inside your mind as we lay here on this couch And that's even though you know this moment may not last past now It's not fair, you're in my ear, "Mark are you wasting my time" We're so hard to define, It's a shame our name will laminate time Cause what's forever to a fly, it's forever till we die And if I let you have your way, you would just date cause I rhyme Our connection is empty, but lately I've been searching for real Do you remember how it feels to live and actually feel She broke me down, so now you're left with all my pieces to heal How can you steal something from someone who has nothing to steal That's real
[Hook - James Bay:] So come on, let it go Just let it be Why don't you be you And I'll be me Everything that's broke Leave it to the breeze Why don't you be you And I'll be me And I'll be me
See as you lay here... or as we lay here You won't bottle your questions You're asking why you can't stay here The truth, I'm trying to lose all my feelings before they appear Wanna be clear, but it's hard with this naked body I lay near I know, I shoulda chose someone that matters, no bitches I'm wishing I listened, I could've saved my heart from the stitches We're kissing, I listen, you're telling me your favorite position When really all I wanna hear is that you're loyal and driven We're living in a world where girls are thinking diamonds are love We're mining it up to remind us of us, paying for trust Do you get it? She told me, "Mark just forget it" I wanna change this world and girl I just don't think that you get it This pressure is heavy, not ready to just let you forget me But when this all is said and done, you gon regret that you met me I used to wanna find a feeling, now I'm feeling so empty But honestly, I wanna thank you for the love that you lent me That's real
