The Ending lyrics - Ellie Goulding

If you lock me out...
If you lock me out...
If you lock me out...
If you lock me out...
If you lock me out...

I’m living on the wild side
I’ve never seen a footprint
In the land of rivers
You’re my only bridge

And I feel the fear in me
And I don’t wanna fall asleep
When I turn into someone else
I know that it can’t be beat

If you lock me out...
If you lock me out...
If you lock me out...
If you lock me out...

If you lock me out...
If you lock me out...
If you lock me out...
If you lock me out...

If you lock...
If you lock...
If you lock...
If you lock...
If you lock...

Will you know who I am?
Will you know who you are?

Will you know who I am?
Will you know who you are?

I think I’ve been praying
The lights won’t go out
My blood is getting colder
As I follow this road down

If you lock me out... (There won’t be anything to hold)
If you lock me out... (There won’t be anything to hold on to)
If you lock me out... (There won’t be anyone in the end)
If you lock me out... (There won’t be anyone in the ending)

If you lock me out... (There won’t be anything to hold)
If you lock me out... (There won’t be anything to hold on to)
If you lock me out... (There won’t be anyone in the end)
If you lock me out... (There won’t be anyone in the ending)

High For This lyrics - Ellie Goulding

(originally by The Weeknd)

You don't know what's in store
But you know what you're here for
Close your eyes
Lay yourself beside me

Hold tight for this ride
We don't need no protection
Come alone
We don't need attention

Open your hand
Take a glass
Don't be scared
I'm right here
Even though you don't roll
Trust me boy
You wanna be high for this

Take it off
You want it off
'Cause I know what you're feeling
It's okay, boy, I feel it too

Let it be baby breathe
I swear I'm right here
We'll be good; I promise
We'll be so good

Open your hand
Take a glass
Don't be scared
I'm right here
Even though you don't roll
Trust me boy
You wanna be high for this

Stay Awake lyrics - Ellie Goulding

Take my fate in your hands,
We've got a lot that hasn’t even began
Something is calling us,
We’re breaking free,
I’m curious,
I need to see.

Like a flash before our eyes,
We're already into the night,
And if it feels like we’re dreaming,
Believe it, believe it.

(Yeah)

We don't have to wait 'til the morning,
The sun will never go down.
And we’ll be this way forever,
We've got to take it now,
(Yeah)
Just stay awake, stay awake,
You can follow us to paradise,
Just stay awake, stay awake.

Bring me down, side by side,
While our reflections make our bodies collide.
So full of energy, nothing to hide,
No need to sleep, we come alive,
And if we’re gonna take this ride,
We can go wherever we like
And if it feels like we’re dreaming,
Believe it, believe it.

(Yeah)
We don't have to wait 'til the morning,
The sun will never go down.
And we’ll be this way forever,
We've got to take it now,
(Yeah)
Just stay awake, stay awake,
You can follow us to paradise,
Just stay awake, stay awake.

Believe it.

Take my fate in your hands,
We've got a lot that hasn't even began
Something is calling us,
We’re breaking free,
I’m curious,
I need to see.

We're going on a journey
It was over like a flash before our eyes
We're going on a journey
It was over like a flash before our eyes
We're already into the night

Like a flash before our eyes,
We're already into the night,
And if it feels like we’re dreaming,
Believe it, believe it.

(Yeah)
We don't have to wait 'til the morning,
The sun will never go down.
And we’ll be this way forever,
We've got to take it now,
(Yeah)
Just stay awake, stay awake,
You can follow us to paradise,
Just stay awake, stay awake.

"Lights" (2010)

Guns And Horses lyrics - Ellie Goulding

You're so quiet
But it doesn't faze me
You're on time
You move so fast, makes me feel lazy

Let's join forces
We've got our guns and horses
I know you've been burned
But every fire is a lesson learned

I left my house
Left my clothes
Door wide open
Heaven knows
You're so worth it, you are

But I wish I could feel it all for you
I wish I could be it all for you
If I could erase the pain
Maybe you'd feel the same
I'd do it all for you
I would [x4]

Let's type words
Because they amount to nothing
Play it down
Pretend you can't take what you've found
But you found me
On a screen you sit at permanently

I left my house
Left my clothes
Door wide open
Heaven knows
You're so worth it, you are

But I wish I could feel it all for you
I wish I could be it all for you
If I could erase the pain
Maybe you'd feel the same
I'd do it all for you
I would [x4]

It's time to come clean
And make sense of everything
It's time that we found out who we are
Cause when I'm standing here in the dark
I see your face in every star

But I wish I could feel it all for you
I wish I could be it all for you
If I could erase the pain
Maybe you'd feel the same
I'd do it all for you
I would [x3]
I'd do it all for you, I'd do it all for you [x4]

Starry Eyed lyrics - Ellie Goulding

Oh, oh, starry eyed
Hit, hit, hit, hit, hit me with lightning

Handle bars, then I let go, let go for anyone
Take me in, and throw out my heart and get a new one

Next thing we're touching
You look at me it's like you hit me with lightning
Ah

Oh, everybody's starry-eyed
And everybody glows
Oh, everybody's starry-eyed
And my body goes
Whoa oh oh ah ah
Whoa oh oh ah ah
Whoa oh oh

So we burst into colors, colors and carousels,
Fall head first like paper planes and playground games

Next thing we're touching
You look at me it's like you hit me with lightning
Ah

Oh, everybody's starry-eyed
And everybody glows
Oh, everybody's starry-eyed
And my body goes
Whoa oh oh ah ah
Whoa oh oh ah ah
Whoa oh oh

Next thing we're touching [x8]

Hit me with lightning

Oh, everybody's starry-eyed
And everybody glows
Oh, everybody's starry-eyed
And my body goes [x2]

Whoa oh oh ah ah [x3]

This Love (Will Be Your Downfall) lyrics - Ellie Goulding

Who are we to be emotional?
Who are we to play with hearts and throw away it all?
Oh, who are we to turn each other's heads?
Who are we to find ourselves in other people's beds?

Oh, I don't like the way I never listen to myself
I feel like I'm on fire, I'm too shy to cry for help
Oh, I don't think you know me much at all

This love is be and end all
This love will be your downfall
This love is be and end all
This love will be your downfall

I'm feeling down about this love

Who are you to make me feel so good?
Who are we to tell ourselves that we're misunderstood?
Oh, who am I to say I'm always yours?
Who am I to choose the boy that everyone adores?
Oh, I don't see a reason why we can't just be apart
We're falling on each other like we're always in the dark
Oh, I don't think you know me much at all, at all

This love is be and end all
This love will be your downfall
This love is be and end all
This love will be your downfall
This love is be and end all
This love will be your downfall
(At all)

This love is not what you want
This heart will never be yours
This love is be and end all
This love will be your downfall
This love is be and end all
This love will be your downfall

Under The Sheets lyrics - Ellie Goulding

Like all the boys before, like all the boys, boys, boys, boys [x2]

You left a blood stain on the floor
You set your sights on him
You left a hand print on the door

Like all the boys before,
Like all the boys before

This is our luck baby, running out
Our clothes were never off
We still have our roads to run about
To scale the map, scale the map,
To get us back on track

I've seen you in a fight you lost,
I've seen you in a fight

We're under the sheets
And you're killing me
In our house made of paper,
Your words all over me
We're under the sheets
And you're killing me

Like all the boys before, like all the boys, boys, boys, boys [x2]

In here the world won't bring us down
Our plan is gold dust
Out there a lonely girl could drown
In here we're frozen

Where did the people go?
My hands are empty
You're not the answer I should know
Like all the boys before, like all the boys before

We're under the sheets
And you're killing me
In our house made of paper,
Your words all over me
We're under the sheets
And you're killing me

We're in a mess baby,
We're in a mess babe
Your more is less babe
(Oh, oh)
We're in a mess baby,
We're in a mess babe
Your more is less babe
(Oh, oh)
We're under the sheets
And you're killing me
In our house made of paper,
And your words all over me
We're under the sheets
And you're killing me
(I've seen you in a fight you lost)
Like all the boys before,
Like all the boys before

We're under the sheets and you're killing me,
In our house made of paper, your words all over me,
We're under the sheets and you're killing me,
(I've seen you in a fight you lost)
Like all the boys before, like all the boys before,
We're under the sheets and you're killing me,
In our house made of paper, your words all over me,
We're under the sheets and you're killing me,
(Oh you're killin me, your killin me!)

We're under the sheets and you're killing me,
In our house made of paper, your words all over me,
We're under the sheets and you're killing me.
(Killing me, killing me, killing me.)
Killing me, killing me, killing me.

The Writer lyrics - Ellie Goulding

You wait for a silence
I wait for a word
Lying next to your frame
Girl unobserved
You change your position
And you're changing me
Casting these shadows
Where they shouldn't be

We're interrupted
By the heat of the sun
Trying to prevent
What's already begun
You're just a body
I can smell your skin
And when I feel it
You're wearing thin

But I've got a plan
Why don't you be the artist
And make me out of clay?
Why don't you be the writer?
And decide the words I say?
'Cause I'd rather pretend
I'll still be there at the end
Only it's too hard to ask
Won't you try to help me?

Sat on your sofa
It's all broken springs
This isn't the place for
Those violin strings
I try out a smile
And I aim it at you
You must have missed it
You always do

But I've got a plan
Why don't you be the artist
And make me out of clay?
Why don't you be the writer?
And decide the words I say?
‘Cause I'd rather pretend
I'll still be there at the end
Only it’s too hard to ask
Won't you try to help me?

You wait
I wait
Casting shadows
Interrupted

You wait
I wait
Casting shadows
Interrupted

You wait
I wait
Casting shadows
Interrupted

You wait
I wait
Casting shadows

Why don't you be the artist
And make me out of clay?
Why don't you be the writer?
And decide the words I say?
'Cause I'd rather pretend
I'll still be there at the end
Only it’s too hard to ask
Won't you try to help me?

Why don’t you be the artist
And make me out of clay?
Why don’t you be the writer?
And decide the words I say?
‘Cause I’d rather pretend
I’ll still be there at the end
Only it’s too hard to ask
Won't you try to help me?

Every Time You Go lyrics - Ellie Goulding

Every time you go
Every time you go.

It starts with a picture,
And it sits in your frame.
And we part with a letter,
And it ends in my name.

And it starts with forever,
And it ends with a touch.
And I know that you're clever,
And I don't ask for much.

Maybe we forgot all the things we are, we are together.

You said I'm arresting,
You said I had heat.
I really thought that we'd go further
The second time we meet.

Now I'm tired of trying to keep you.
All I want to do is sleep.
And perhaps, when I'm sleeping,
You'll get back on your feet.

Maybe we forgot all the things we are, we are together.

Wake me up,
Wake me up.
Stop my fall,
Every time you go.

Tape me up
Then break me up
Ever so gently,
When I'm at my weakest.

It's not so hard
Every time you go.

I run a mount to meet you
When I knew a storm had come
I felt the rain on your face
And the damage you had done.

I know what you're thinking.
It will never be the end.
And when the storm is over,
You won't see me again.

Didn't know the price I paid for all the times I stayed
When we were together.

Wake me up,
Wake me up.
Stop my fall,
Every time you go.

Tape me up
Then break me up
Ever so gently,
When I'm at my weakest.

It's not so hard

Maybe we forgot, are we awake or not?
Maybe we forgot, are we awake or not?
Maybe we forgot, are we awake or not?
Or maybe we forgot.

Wake me up,
Wake me up.
Stop my fall,
Every time you go.

Tape me up
Then break me up
Ever so gently,
When I'm at my weakest.

Wake me up,
Wake me up.
Stop my fall,
Every time you go.

Tape me up
Then break me up
Ever so gently,
When I'm at my weakest.

It's not so hard
Every time you go.

Wish I Stayed lyrics - Ellie Goulding

Why can't we speak another language, one we all agree on?
Why and when men look outside, do they see houses,
Instead of the fields they grew from?
We are constantly uprooted from them, making us tiresome and fearful,
Can you get up right now? Endeavour to free-fall.

'Cause you can fall if you want to, it's just a matter of how far,
You've treasured your home town, but you've forgotten where you are.
And it will stay with you until you're mind's been found,
and it has been found wondering around.

With that skipping rope, the trampoline,
The crafty smoke that made us choke,
But we didn't give up hope.
It's the simple ways of getting paid,
The carelessness of running away,
I wish I stayed,
I wish I stayed,
I wish I stayed.

Patterns all arranged in my background,
It's pillars and posts keeping this country on form.
Letters were all sent with no addresses so that people can't discover.
We're always undercover.
Why do I always draw triangles instead of words this paper so deserves?

'Cause you see,
I don't own my clothes but I own my mind,
And it's not what you've lost,
But it's what you find.

We found that skipping rope, the trampoline,
The crafty smoke that made us choke,
But we didn't give up hope.
It's the simple ways of getting paid,
The carelessness of running away,
I wish I stayed,
I wish I stayed,
I wish I stayed.

'Cause you can fall if you want to, it's just a matter of how far,
You've treasured your home town, but you've forgotten where you are.
And it will stay with you 'til you're mind's been found,
and it has been found wondering around.

With that skipping rope, the trampoline,
The crafty smoke that made us choke,
But we didn't give up hope.
It's the simple ways of getting paid,
The carelessness of running away,
Now, I wish I stayed,
I wish I stayed,
I wish I stayed,
I wish I stayed,
I wish I stayed.

Your Biggest Mistake lyrics - Ellie Goulding

Take cover
Signs don't show
You drove me off the road

But you let go
'Cause your hope is gone
And every question fades away

It's a shame you don't know
What you're running from
Would your bones have to break
And your lights turn off
Would it take the end of time
To hear your heart's false start?

You know this is your biggest mistake
What a waste, what a waste, what a waste
And of all the things you never explained
You know this is your biggest mistake

You tread water
Fighting for the air in your lungs
Move, move closer
Maybe you can right all your wrongs

But you let go
'Cause your hope is gone
And every answer fades away

It's a shame you don't know
What you're running from
Would your bones have to break
And your lights turn off
Would it take the end of time
To hear your heart's false start?

You know this is your biggest mistake
What a waste, what a waste, what a waste
And of all the things you never explained
Well, you know this is your biggest mistake

Wipe the mud spray from the face
Stop the engine
Stop pretending
Wipe the mud spray from your face
Stop the engine
Yeah, stop pretending that you're still breathing

It's a shame you don't know
What you're running from
Would your bones have to break
And your lights turn off
Would it take the end of time
To hear your heart's false start?

You know this is your biggest mistake
What a waste, what a waste, what a waste
And of all the things you never explained
Well, you know this is your biggest mistake

You know this is your biggest mistake
What a waste, what a waste, what a waste
And of all the things you never explained
Well, you know this is your biggest mistake

I'll Hold My Breath lyrics - Ellie Goulding

Breathe air you're not used to
Tread floors you don't fall through
Make waves...
You crash a symbol hard
Follow no one, always play the wrong card
Waste days in foreign places
Shed light on your better side
Reassure me that you'll wait for me, wait for me as long as it takes!

And I'll hold my breath, I'll hold my breath

Until you see me in your dreams
We'll stay awake beneath the trees
We'll watch the buildings turn to dust
A sky of diamonds just for us
You are the risk I'll always take
The only branch I'll never break
Those fears we'll blow them all away, we'll blow them all away

Fight fires in your best clothes,
Touch skin with your eyes closed
Chase thunder with the volume down
Pack a suitcase, wander to the next town
Force quit on your losing streak
Solve a riddle in a magazine, be tongue in cheek
Tell me that we're still too young,
That we're still too young and I'll hold my tongue

Until you see me in your dreams
We'll stay awake beneath the trees
We'll watch the buildings turn to dust
A sky of diamonds just for us
You are the risk I'll always take
The only branch I'll never break
Those fears we'll blow them all away, we'll blow them all away

I'm here, I'm here to take you
I'll swim, I'll swim to save you
No fall, I'm here to catch you
I'll swim, I'll swim to save you...

Until you see me in your dreams
We'll stay awake beneath the trees
We'll watch the buildings turn to dust
A sky of diamonds just for us
You are the risk I'll always take
The only branch I'll never break
Those fears we'll blow them all away, we'll blow them all away

Salt Skin lyrics - Ellie Goulding

You're as sharp as a knife
and you fit like a glove
That is no way to live
that is no way to love
Full of fear in your skin
and the weakness in giving in

You're stabbed in the back but you feel no pain
Push the heaviest doors
that you can't open
Yeah they tied me up
and my body lies still, again

You're as bright as the sun
and as calm as the moon
I don't know when you'll break
but it's gonna be soon
If my will caves in, I'll be in the same
boat as you

I've got the salt skin
Running to where he is
Never going to give in
Even with the strength
He's stealing salt skin
Telling me I'm winning wars they created
just to understand...
"the meaning of"

Hands on strings and my mouth open
Find the perfect words
that I've not spoken
And I won't tell the truth
unless you want me to
For all of the times that I lost my head
When it rolled to the floor
and I found it again
But when it came back
No, I didn't know my own name

I've got the salt skin
Running to where he is
Never going to give in
Even with the strength
He's stealing salt skin
Telling me I'm winning wars they created
just to understand...
"the meaning of"

I've got the salt skin
Running to where he is
Never going to give in
Even with the strength
He's stealing salt skin
Telling me I'm winning wars they created
just to understand...

I've got the salt skin
Running to where he is
Never going to give in
Even with the strength
He's stealing salt skin
Telling me I'm winning wars they created
just to understand...
"the meaning"

Lights lyrics - Ellie Goulding

I had a way then losing it all on my own
I had a heart then but the queen has been overthrown
And I'm not sleeping now, the dark is too hard to beat
And I'm not keeping now the strength I need to push me

You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine it when I'm alone
And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
And dreaming when they're gone

'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home
Calling, calling, calling home
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine it when I'm alone home

Voices I play within my head
Touch my own skin and hope that I'm still breathing
And I think back to when my brother and my sister slept
In an unknown place the only time I feel safe

You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine it when I'm alone
And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
And dreaming when they're gone

'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home
Calling, calling, calling home
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine it when I'm alone home

Yeah, hee

Light, lights, lights, lights
Light, lights, lights, lights
(Home, home)
Light, lights, lights, lights
Light, lights

You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine it when I'm alone
And so I tell myself that I'll be strong
And dreaming when they're gone

'Cause they're calling, calling, calling me home
Calling, calling, calling home
You show the lights that stop me turn to stone
You shine it when I'm alone home

Home, home
Light, lights, lights, lights
Light, lights, lights, lights

Home, home
Light, lights, lights, lights
Light, lights, lights, lights

Home, home
Light, lights, lights, lights
Light, lights, lights, lights

Home, home
Light, lights, lights, lights
Light, lights, lights, lights

Human lyrics Ellie Goulding

Human, behave yourself,
You have burst at the seams
Let it all fall out
Open your mouth
Often I lie wide awake,
Think of things I can make
But I don't seem to have the parts to build them

Human, I wonder why you're a better make than I could ever build or create,
You know not love or hate
I am so scared of what will kill me in the end
For I am not prepared,
I hope I will get the chance...

...to be someone,
To be human,
Look what we've done,
Look what we've done

I would give my life to be human
I would give my life to be human
I would give my life to be human
I would give my life to be.

Human, I'm trying to come clean,
I will be a better me,
I will not drink until I'm dead
I'll make the most of it.
I don't know what it's like to be alive,
To say goodbye,
To cry a thousand times because my ears won't listen

Human, I'm trying not to lose my faith in you.
I've sussed out all that I've seen through,
I've sailed an ocean
I am so scared of what I'll look like in the end
For I am not prepared,
I hope I will get the chance...

...to be someone
To be human, look what we've done, look what we've done

I would give my life to be human
I would give my life to be human
I would give my life to be human
I would give my life to be.

I used to hear it all so loud, the sound of my heart breaking.
The truth is waiting to be found,
I trust that I will take it

I would give my life.
I would give my life.
I would give my life.
I would give my life.

I would give my life to be human
I would give my life to be human
I would give my life to be human
I would give my life to be.

Little Dreams lyrics - Ellie Goulding

If a plane crashed into my room
I wouldn't even flinch, I couldn't try to
move. My mind is on you, my mind is on
you

If the streetlight smashed above me
I wouldn't move an inch. Turn the glass
into stars and your face is the moon
And the night turns to you, cos my mind is
on you

You've got me caught in a place
Panic for a minute, got my brain in a
daze, I wish you weren't in it, there are so
many ways to lose your attention.
You can break everything but so what I
can take anything, I can take anything,
I can take anything

If electric charges shock me, I'd smile
and fold my arms, I'd feel nothing new,
because my mind is on you

And if the floor gave way to my shoes,
I wouldn't try to fly, I can't explain what it
would feel, I just feel you

You've get me caught in a place
Panic for a minute, got my brain in a
daze I wish you weren't in it, there are
so many ways to lose your attention.
You can break everything but so what?
I can take anything

You're the heat in my bones, but you
break me with stones. You're the heat in
my bones, but you break me with stones
If a plane crashed into my room
I wouldn't even flinch, I couldn't try to
move. My mind is on you, my mind is on
you

Home lyrics - Ellie Goulding

Lonely thoughts they seep, into mind
into me
pushing deep
Wash the dirt, a hard days work
Know my place
On my own
No poison in my bones
On my own
This is where I build my home

My home,
this will always be my home

I work until it's late
Walk in and close the gate
I look in the window
and I gaze at my face
Every line and every abrasion
This took my life to make
This took my life to make
On my own
No poison in my bones
On my own, this is where I build my home
My home

I need someone, to hold
I need someone, to hold
My home
This will always be my home
This will always be my home

Animal lyrics - Ellie Goulding

I'll show you all of the places I'm dreaming of.
I'll take you to the ocean, I'll bring the sun
We are seventeen, we have just begun...
I have love to fight for and then some
But you are the one,
The one, the one, the one, the one, the one, the one, the one.

Wake up in the morning, we're paralyzed...
We'll fly into the garden like butterflies
There will be no blood and there'll be no pain
I want to fall in love with you again
Again again again again again again again again again

You have stolen all my senses
There's a fever in my heart
And you are taking my defences
You are pulling me apart
Forever we're young and we are dying
And we will be spilling all our blood.
So I will take away my feelings
I will be an animal
An animal
An animal

I'll tie you in my arms, I will smother you
We'll tell each other lies like we tell the truth
I'll colour in the sky and I'll colour you
I want to draw on your skin again
Again again again again again again again again

You have stolen all my senses
There's a fever in my heart
And you are taking my defences
You are pulling me apart
Forever we're young and we are dying
And we will be spilling all our blood.
So I will take away my feelings
I will be an animal
An animal

We will run away from danger
We will run away

You have stolen all my senses
There's a fever in my heart
And you are taking my defenses
You are pulling me apart
Forever we're young and we are dying
And we will be spilling all our blood.
So I will take away my feelings
I will be an animal
An animal

Believe Me lyrics - Ellie Goulding

Listen, I can hear the voice,
I need a helping hand,
Just to beat the void.
I need a mission,
A dream to stop me talking to myself
And now the silence is broken,
And my soul is to sell
I need to pick up the pieces
To scatter to the wind
Hold the city to your ears
You can hear the wind come in

But you can't change the world with a song
And you can't make it right when it's wrong

I can't stop this music traveling round with me wherever I go,
It's playing for you.
I can't stop this voice unraveling round me whatever I do.
It's talking to you
The world dances to the rhythm of its own heart beating for you,
However you lose
So speak to me
Believe, believe, believe me.

Don't let it slip through your fingertips.
When there's a ghost,
Don't try to reason with it
'Cause now I'm tired, I'm wired,
So I won't miss a thing.
I wrote my words out to dry
And I've forgotten what to sing

But you can't change the world with a song
And you can't make it right when it's wrong

I can't stop this music traveling round with me wherever I go
It's playing for you
I can't stop this voice unraveling round me whatever I do
It's talking to you
The world dances to the rhythm of its own heart beating for you,
However you lose
So speak to me
Believe, believe, believe me.

If that's what it was to you,
Then that's what it was to me.
If that's what it was to you,
Then that's what it was to me.
If that's what it was to you,
Then that's what it was to me.

But you can't change the world with a song
You can't make it right when it's wrong

I can't stop this music traveling round with me wherever I go
It's playing for you
I can't stop the voice unraveling round me whatever I do
It's talking to you
The world dances to the rhythm of its own heart beating for you,
However you lose
So speak to me
Believe, believe, believe me

I can't stop this music traveling round with me wherever I go
It's playing for you
I can't stop the voice unraveling round me whatever I do
It's talking to you
The world dances to the rhythm of its own heart beating for you,
However you lose
So speak to me
Believe, believe, believe me
Believe, believe, believe me

Your Song lyrics - Ellie Goulding

(originally by Elton John)

It's a little bit funny, this feeling inside
I'm not one of those who can easily hide
I don't have much money, but boy if I did
I'd buy a big house where we both could live

So excuse me forgetting, but these things I do
See I've forgotten if they're green or they're blue
Anyway the thing is what I really mean
Yours are the sweetest eyes I've ever seen

And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple, but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is now you're in the world

If I was a sculptor, but then again no
Or a girl who makes potions in a traveling show
I know it's not much, but it's the best I can do
My gift is my song, and this one's for you

Oh [x8]

And you can tell everybody this is your song
It may be quite simple, but now that it's done
I hope you don't mind, I hope you don't mind that I put down in words
How wonderful life is now you're in the world

The End lyrics - Ellie Goulding

We've only ever kissed lying down
We've only ever touched
When there's no one else around
I can be elusive
If you want me to
I'm not being intrusive
I just wish I knew the truth

As to why
I wait for you
Longer than the average person would
And why
I think about you
More than I think one should

Our bodies fit together
Like a make-shift puzzle
And it's clear to see why you puzzle me
And you turn your frame
And you whisper my name
As though I am a burden

Cause I'm making up for lost time
And I'm making up for you
And I'm waking up from last night
And I'm waking up with you
So what's new?
So what's new?

I am at your house
So I belong to you for now
Trying to impress you
But lord I don't know how
I can be a statue
If you want me to
I'm not being difficult
I just need to know the truth

As to why
I'm wanting you
And I would take you if I could
And why I'm still (lay?) here
It's something I still haven't understood

Our hands rest together
Like pieces of paper
But they're always blank
When I hold your hand
And it gave you a fright
When I stayed the night
And you gave yourself to me

Cause I'm making up for lost time
And I'm making up for you
And I'm waking up from last night
And I'm waking up with you
So what's new?
So what's new?

It's not the end
It's not the end
So don't lets pretend

Cause I'm making up for lost time
And I'm making up for you
And I'm waking up from last night
And I'm making up for you
So what's new?
So what's new?
So what's new?

All I Want lyrics - Ellie Goulding

(originally by Kodaline)

All I want is nothing more, hear you knocking at my door
'Cause if I could see your face once more, to die a happy woman I'm sure
When you said your last goodbye, I died a little bit inside
I lay in tears in bed all night, alone without you by my side.

If you love me, why'd you leave me?
Take my body, take my body
All I want is and all I need is
To find somebody, I'll find somebody like you.
Like you. Like you. You.

'Cause you brought out the best of me,
A part of me I'd never seen,
You took my soul and wiped it clean,
Our love was made for movie screens.

If you love me, why'd you leave me?
Take my body, take my body
All I want is and all I need is
To find somebody, find somebody.

If you love me, why'd you leave me?
Take my body, take my body
All I want is and all I need is
To find somebody, I'll find somebody like you.

Be Mine lyrics - Ellie Goulding (with Erik Hassle, originally by Robyn)

It's a good thing tears never show in the pouring rain
As if a good thing ever could make up for all the pain
There'll be no last chance to promise to never mess it up again
Just a sweet pain of watching your back as you walk
As I'm watching you walk away

And now you're gone it's like an echo in my head
And I remember every word you said

It's a cruel thing you'll never know all the ways I tried
It's a hard thing faking a smile when I feel like I'm falling apart inside

And now you're gone it's like an echo in my head
And I remember every word you said

And you never were
and you never will be mine
No you were never were
and you never will be mine

For the first time there is no mercy in your eyes
And the cold winds hitting my face and you're gone
And you're walking away, away
And I am helpless sometimes
Wishing's just no good
Cause you don't see me like I wish you would

Cause you never were and you never will be mine
No you never were and you never will be mine

There's a moment to seize every time we meet
But you always keep passing me by
But you never were and you never will be mine
No you were never were and you never will be mine

There's a moment to seize every time that we meet
But you always keep passing me by
But you never were and you never will be mine

Beating Heart lyrics - Ellie Goulding

[from "Divergent" soundtrack]

Eyes make their peace in difficulties
With wounded lips and salted cheeks
And finally we step to leave
To the departure lounge of disbelief

And I don't know where I'm going
But I know it's gonna be a long time
And I'll be leaving in the morning
Come the white wine bitter sunlight

Wanna hear your beating heart tonight
Before the bleeding sun comes alive
I want to make the best of what is left, hold tight
And hear my beating heart one last time
Before daylight

and the canyon underneath the trees
Behind the dark sky, you looked at me
I fell for you like autumn leaves
And Never faded, evergreen

And I don't know where I'm going
But I know it's gonna be a long time
'Cause I'll be leaving in the morning
Come the white wine bitter sunlight

Wanna hear your beating heart tonight
Before the bleeding sun comes alive
I want to make the best of what is left, hold tight
And hear my beating heart one last time

I can't face this now everything has changed
I just wanna be by your side, here's hoping we collide
Here's hoping we collide
Here's hoping we collide

Wanna hear your beating heart tonight
Before the bleeding sun comes alive
I want to make the best of what is left, hold tight
And hear my beating heart one last time
Wanna hear your beating heart tonight

Bittersweet lyrics - Ellie Goulding

[from "The Twilight Saga: Breaking Dawn – Part 2" soundtrack]

Your arms around me come undone
Makes my heart beat like a drum
See the panic in my eyes
Kiss me only when I cry

Cause you always want what you're running from
And you know this is more than you can take

Baby don't forget my name
When the morning breaks us
Baby please don't look away
When the morning breaks us
Oh your touch, so bittersweet, ah ah ah ah
Baby don't forget my name
When the morning breaks us

Your cheek is softly by the sun
Makes my heart beat like a drum
I know it hurts you, I know it burns you
Hot and cold in a lonely hotel room
Look into me, tell me why you're crying I need to know

Cause you always want what you're running from
And it's always been that way, oh oh

Baby don't forget my name
When the morning breaks us
Baby please don't look away
When the morning breaks us
Oh your touch, so bittersweet, ah ah ah ah
Baby don't forget my name
When the morning breaks us

Cause you always want what you're running from

Baby don't forget my name
When the morning breaks us
Baby please don't look away
When the morning breaks us
Oh your touch, so bittersweet, ah ah ah ah
Baby don't forget my name
When the morning breaks us

Black & Gold lyrics - Ellie Goulding

If a fish swam out of the ocean, grew legs and started walking
And the apes climbed out from the trees, and grew tall and started talking
And the stars fall out of the sky, and my tears rolled into the ocean
Now I'm looking for a reason why, you set my world into motion

'Cause if you're not really here, then the stars don't even matter
Now I feel too tall, we all fear
But it's all just a bunch of matter
'Cause if you're not really here, then I don't want to be either
I want be next to you
Black and gold, black and gold, black gold

I looked up into the night sky and see I saw an eye staring back
And all around these golden beacons I see nothing but black
I feel a wave of something beyond though, I don't see what I can feel
If vision is the only validation, then most of my life isn't real

'Cause if you're not really here, then the stars don't even matter
Now I feel too tall, we all fear
But it's all just a bunch of matter
'Cause if you're not really here, then I don't want to be either
I want be next to you
Black and gold, black and gold, black gold

I want to be next to you

'Cause if you're not really here,
then the stars don't even matter
Now I feel too tall, we all fear
But it's all just a bunch of matter
'Cause if you're not really here,
then I don't want to be either I want be next to you
Black and gold, black and gold, black gold

Closed For Love lyrics - Ellie Goulding

In the quiet
I heard a siren
Passing by
I shut my eyes

Are you hurting?
I lock my door
I'm closed for love
Don't wanna cry no more

Who will kiss my tears away?
You only made them fall
And it's crazy to hold on
What I'm holding on is gone
So now I'm closed for love

Who will kiss my tears away?
You only ever made them fall
So now I'm closed for love

You dropped me
To the ground
You stood right by
Said I should fly

Always flirting
Smiles soul
Those stroke my heart
It doesn't beat no more

And who will kiss my tears away?
You only made them fall
And it's crazy to hold on
When you won't open
So now I'm closed for love

Who will kiss my tears away?
You only ever made them fall
So now I'm closed for love

Friday morning
I had no warning
Friday night
I lost the fight

Were you aiming?
I wasn't sure
If I had first
I'm glad my back was turned

And who kiss my tears away?
You only made them fall
And it's crazy to hold on
When you won't open
So now I'm closed for love

Who will kiss my tears away?
You only ever made them fall
So now I'm closed for love
Who will kiss my tears away?
You only ever made them fall
You only ever made them fall
You only ever made them fall

Father lyrics - Ellie Goulding

Opened up a box of you,
Piece of paper or two,
With my name written on it, and a question mark
Who is this girl that I’ve made?
‘Cause I’ve been kept in the dark

And I’ve seen you once, Father
In the fear of your belts and leather,
And you were just about to tempter,
There was distance,
You’re my spout resistance
And I cant believe that you still don’t know me,
‘Cause I am a mystery

So I separated all the things that I have hated,
With the victories I’ve won,
And the biggest one was you,
You don’t know my street or the size of my feet or,
Or the time it took to grow,
‘Cause Father these are things you should know,
These are things you should know,

Knocked the breath right out of you,
But what’s a brown-eyed girl to do?
When her future lies on chasing paper,
And all I get from you is; “You’re so clever" and "I’ll see you later.”
And I just cant hide my frustration,
When there’s so much more you could have done,
Like given me hope and attention instead of ignore,
No I don’t mind, no, I don’t mind because he is just a boy,
Cause we are children,
We are merely children,
And he is just a boy,

So I separated all the things that I have hated,
With the victories I’ve won,
And the biggest one was you,
You don’t know my street or the size of my feet or,
Or the time it took to grow,
‘Cause these are things you should know

Fighter Plane lyrics - Ellie Goulding

[from "Under The Sheets" single] 

Stones falling down
Roller coaster, heart bound
Fears overplayed
Two left feet, emergency

Wide open space
Catch my tail, fishing net
Fold up my frown,
Take the rage and smooth it out (out)

Stick to my skin,
Paper maché face to live in
Save you to paint
Watercolor your name

Read every page
(You will never have to feel that way again)
All your chains underwent
(You will never have to feel that way again)
Face your mistakes
(You will never have to feel that way again)
Press the dents, fighter plane

I held the fort and I swung my sword
I have muted the screams, I have broken the falls

Oh, I held the fort and I swung my sword
I have muted the screams, I have broken the falls

Fighter plane
Fighter plane
Fighter plane
Fighter plane

Fly away

Fly lyrics - Ellie Goulding

In the window
Faces staring right past me
They're on a date, feeling happy
And I go in there and sit with them
Make them laugh
And be normal
For an hour and a half
Someone's tired
But not mine

'Cause I just fly, fly, fly
Only fly, fly, fly
When things are moving so fast
You don't have to take them in
When you're falling up high
You don't even have to think about it
About it

Know every station off by heart
Never get off
Just go back to the start of my journey
And I'm never as young as I want to be
I think I'll never worry

If I fly, fly, fly
I'll just fly, fly, fly
When things are moving so fast
You don't have to take them in
When you're falling up high
You don't even have to think about it
About it

Some day the sky will run out
The ground will pull me back down
Back to thinking straight
Never being late for love that I haven't found

But maybe I should try
Maybe I should try

I bet he's heavy
I feel weak
Talk to people
But they don't speak
Always moving, but I still don't know where I'm going

But that's okay, because I'll fly, fly, fly
I'll just fly, fly, fly
When things are moving so fast
You don't have to take them in
When you're falling up high
You don't even have to think

I just fly

Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas lyrics - Ellie Goulding

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let your heart be light
From now on your troubles will be out, of sight

Have yourself a merry little Christmas
Let the yuletide gay
From now on your troubles will be miles away

Here we are, as in olden days
Happy golden days, of yore
Faithful friends, who are dear to us
Gather near to us, once more

Someday soon, we all will be together
If the fates allow
Until then, we'll have to muddle through, somehow

And have yourself a merry little Christmas, now

Heartbeats lyrics - Ellie Goulding (originally by The Knife)

One night to be confused
One night to speed up truth
We had a promise made
Four hands and then away

Both under influence
We had a divine sense
To know what to say
Mind is a razor blade

To call for hands from above
to lean on
Wouldn't be good enough
for me, no

One night of magic rush
The start a simple touch
Tonight to push and scream
And then relief

Ten days of perfect tunes
The colors red and blue
We had a promise made
We were in love

To call for hands from above
to lean on
Wouldn't be good enough
for me, no

To call for hands from above
to lean on
Wouldn't be good enough

And you, you knew the hand of the devil
And you, kept us awake with wolves teeth
Sharing different heartbeats
In one night

To call for hands from above
to lean on
Wouldn't be good enough
for me, no

To call for hands from above
to lean on
Wouldn't be good enough
for me, no
to lean on
Wouldn't be good enough
For me, no

Here's To Us lyrics - Ellie Goulding

You're falling at your feet (giving everything up...)
There's something in the way, love is never enough
I see your sorry how I'm burning down the gun
With a war in your mind that never wants to be won
I catch you in a light no one else can see
I know you see her, and you'll never see me
She makes you feel the most, keep your souls alive
But what we had (it never really died...)

And this is what I'll say if I had any words
Wish we hadn't messed up, now your heart is with hers
And I know that your love wasn't here to stay
I gave you all of mine but you gave it away
And now you're the one who hurts
You had to love someone else just to know your worth

But here's to us, here's to us, here's to us
Yeah, this is just a phase, pretty sure of that
And one day, you and I, we will never look back
You kept me in the flames but the fire was out, the fire was out!

And this is what I'll say if I had any words
Wish we hadn't messed up, now your heart is with hers
And I know that your love wasn't here to stay
I gave you all of mine but you gave it away
And now you're the one who hurts
You had to love someone else just to know your worth

And this is what I'll say if I had any words
Wish we hadn't messed up, now your heart is with hers
And I know that your love wasn't here to stay
I gave you all of mine but you gave it away
And now you're the one who hurts
You had to love someone else just to know your worth

(But here's to us, here's to us, here's to us...)

How Long Will I Love You lyrics - Ellie Goulding

(Single Version)

How long will I love you?
As long as stars are above you
And longer, if I can.

How long will I need you?
As long as the seasons need to
Follow their plan.

How long will I be with you?
As long as the sea is bound to
Wash upon the sand.

How long will I want you?
As long as you want me to
And longer by far.

How long will I hold you?
As long as your father told you,
As long as you can.

How long will I give to you?
As long as I live through you
However long you say.

How long will I love you?
As long as stars are above you
And longer, if I may.

[Spoken:]
We're all traveling through time together
Every day of our lives.
All we can do is do our best
To relish this remarkable ride.

Just In Case lyrics - Ellie Goulding

(originally by Jaheim)

Think of how we made love almost anywhere
Haven't I taken you almost everywhere?
Think of all the things that, that we shared
Then imagine me not there, oh

Giving you more carrots than the rabbit
Got you living lavish
Anything I've got, you can have it
Baby I'll do magic
I'll do all I can to keep you satisfied
So just in case I don't make it home tonight, baby

Just in case I don't make it home tonight
Maybe make love to you for the last time, baby
Just in case, just in case
Wanna cherish each moment like the last
Cause baby you're all that I have, so just in case
Just in case I don't make it home tonight
Maybe make love to you for the last time, baby
Wanna cherish each moment like the last
Cause baby you're all that I have, so just in case

Case, night, I don't make it
Case, night
Case, night, I don't make it
Case, night, I don't make it
Case, night, I don't make it
Case, night, I don't make it

Just in case I don't make it home tonight
Maybe make love to you for the last time, baby
Just in case, just in case
Wanna cherish each moment like the last
Cause baby you're all that I have, so just in case

There's something you need to know
Just in case I don't make it home tonight
Maybe make love to you for the last time, baby
Wanna cherish each moment like the last
Cause baby you're all that I have, so just in case
You're my heart, you're my soul
Your heart makes me whole

Life Round Here lyrics - Ellie Goulding (feat. Angel Haze)

[Chorus: Ellie Goulding (x4)]
Part time love is the life round here
We're never done
Everything feels like touchdown on a rainy day

[Verse 1: Ellie Goulding]
Now we're at square one
And we wait too long
Til' we’re at square one

[Chorus: Ellie Goulding (x2)]

[Verse 2: Angel Haze]
I wonder how you'd feel if you were lost in my mind
Since you barely understand my thoughts sometimes
Little bit of depth and a little bit of God
Cause I swear that I be livin' in the dark sometimes
And it sets in here, nobody gets let in
'Til I let my emotions out on every single page and instrumental I'm left with
Shit, I wonder, will I ever really feel shit?
And if it all takes time and I ask why, will time eventually reveal this?
Cause... the remedy, I'm searchin' for the remedy
Cause I'm fucked up and my heart's just another ghost of my memory
Knock real hard on real real wood
Things still feel bad when they real real good
And my brain just a vessel and the knowledge suppose to heal
But the more you fuckin' know, less things feel real
Less things feel real, and the time shifts
And my mind shifts and ain't really anyone or anything I can really vibe with
Cause... I'm searchin', but I'm terrified
And by the time I find what I'm lookin' for, I'll be dead inside

[Outro: Angel Haze (Ellie Goulding)]
Cause part time love is the life round here
We're never done
(We're never done)

Mirror lyrics - Ellie Goulding

[from "The Hunger Games: Catching Fire" soundtrack]

Is this our world?

I look in the mirror
I can't get over you
Is this our world?
Is this someone else?
Is this someone else?

I look in the mirror
And I try to see myself
My head full of terror
From the games I played so well
I try to see clearer
I try to forget the fires I started
I try to be nearer
To where you are
To where you are

Are we star-crossed lovers?
Did I really want you gone?
If I'm really a winner
Where did these demons come from?

I was the girl who was on fire
I was the girl who was on fire
Only a bird could get much higher
(I look in the mirror)
'Cause I was the girl who was on fire

I look in the mirror
And I try to understand
And piece it together
Wash the blood from both my hands
I can't see the ending
There are people who know my every secret
I'm tired of pretending
You're in my heart
In my heart

Are we star-crossed lovers?
Did I really want you gone?
If I'm really a winner
Where did these demons come from?

I was the girl who was on fire
I was the girl who was on fire
Only a bird could get much higher
(I look in the mirror)
'Cause I was the girl who was on fire

Mosaic lyrics - Ellie Goulding

I am a mosaic
That was found at
The bottom of your garden
I'm just wondering but the cracks begin to show
Look closely and then you'll know
Then you'll know

I am a beauty that once was
Delicate intrigue, never something special
But never out of your league, I've
Battled with this twice now
He came to me said
"here's how"
Spoke a single line
While we dance in our scene
I'll just die in your arms
And my life is complete

I am a mosaic
That was found when you didn't know any better
I am broken now [x3]
And image that's scattered
Around and [x5] around
A million ways that I, I
Didn't have to hurt [x3]
Battled with this twice
And now he came to me, said
"here's how"
Spoke a single line
We danced in our scene
I'll just die in your arms and my life is complete

Cradled your legs
And took to your feet
You're the strongest love
I ever did meet
Spoke a single line
While we danced in our scene
I'll just die in your arms and my life is complete

Nobody's Crying lyrics - Ellie Goulding

He jumps in a taxi, hands for the sky
He's off to slay some demon or dragonfly
He's lookin' at me, that long last time
I'll turn away again and I wave goodbye
In an envelope, inside his coat
Is a chain I wore, around my throat
Along with, a note I wrote
Said "I love you but, I don't even know why"
Darling, I wish you well
On your way to the wishing well
Swinging off those gates of hell
And I can tell how hard you're trying
And just have our secret hope
Sometimes all we do is cope
Somewhere on the steepest slope
There'll be an endless rope
And nobody's crying

Well a couple of long nights turn into a couple of long years
Of me walkin' walkin' around, around this trail of tears
Where the very loud voices of my own fears
Is ringin' and ringin' in my ears
It says that love is long gone
Every move I make is all wrong
Says you never gave a damn for me

For anything, for anyone

Darling, I wish you well
On your way to the wishing well
Swinging off those gates of hell
And I can tell how hard you're trying
And just have our secret hope
Sometimes all we do is cope
Somewhere on the steepest slope
There'll be an endless rope
And nobody's crying

May you dream you are sleepin', in a warm soft bed
And may the voices inside you that fill you with dread
Turn the sound of thousands of angels instead
Tonight where you might be laying your head

I wish you well
On your way to the wishing well
Swinging off of those gates of hell
And I can tell how hard you're trying
And just have our secret hope
Sometimes all we do is cope
Somewhere on the steepest slope
There'll be an endless rope
And nobody's crying
And nobody's crying

Not Following You lyrics - Ellie Goulding

If I'm catching your eye
It was an accident
If I looked at you strange
Its not what I meant
I wanted to talk
You're occupied
I tried to explain but I'm tongue tied
I'll wait in the wings again
Until you find me out
What is the hold up

Ooo oo oo oo
I'm not following you
Ooo oo oo oo
Walking this way too
Ooo oo oo oo
I've had enough of dreaming
All my dreams are you

If I sat next to you
That wasn't my intent
And if my hand falls on yours
It was coincidence
I'll stay in the room until you're gone
I'll switch to the chair that you sat on
I'll sit there alone again
Until you find me out
What is the hold up

Ooo oo oo oo
I'm not following you
Ooo oo oo oo
Walking this way too
Ooo oo oo oo
See I've had enough of dreaming
All my dreams are you

I wish you would notice me
If not now, eventually
Then I wouldn't have to follow you around
And hunt you down
H-h-hunt you down
Hunt you down

Promise we'll get along
If you talk to me
We'll tell eachother our stories imperfectly
Imperfectly

I wanted to talk
You're occupied
I tried to explain but I'm tongue tied
I'll wait in the wings again
Until you find me out
See what is the hold up

Ooo oo oo oo
I'm not following you
Ooo oo oo oo
Walking this way too
Ooo oo oo oo
I've had enough of dreaming
All my dreams are you

O Holy Night lyrics - Ellie Goulding

O Holy Night
The stars are brightly shining
It is the night of our dear Savior's birth
Long lay the world in sin and ever pining
Til He appeared and the spirit felt its worth
A thrill of hope, the weary world rejoices
For yonder breaks a new and glorious morn

Fall on your knees
O hear the angel voices
O night divine
O the night when Christ was born
O Holy Night
The stars are brightly shining

Truly He taught us to love one another
His law is love and His gospel is peace
Chains He shall break for the slave is our brother
And in His name all oppression shall cease
O the world, the star is sweetly gleaming
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we

Fall on your knees
O hear the angel voices
O night divine
O the night when Christ was born
O night divine

O the night when Christ was born
When Christ was born
When Christ was born

We Were Friends lyrics - Ellie Goulding

Suddenly we were friends,
guarding our country from traitors and new trends,
you are at the borders,
I am at the beaches examining exactly what the enemy teaches,
like presidents and pilots,
we turned our blind eye to letters over our heads, floating in the sky,
thousands of paper animals signalling danger,
they are evolving, and the world's a stranger,

No currency to drive us crazy,
no vehicles would drive us and make us lazy,
to make us lazy,
only time my fall is when I fear, only time may notice I disappear,
and I can't go back without a counter attack, and I can't turn around,
it's my mother's pride,

So close to somewhere else but we're not going there,
we scan the forest floors,
looking worse for wear,
for life outside of ours,
because we are too shallow and too brave to hide our scars and step in one's shadow,
I am protective over you and the stories we enact,
gain what from the smallest of contact,

No currency to drive us crazy,
no vehicles to drive us and make us lazy, to make us lazy,
only time I fall is when I fear, only time may notice I disappear,
and when I see her, when I see her... everyday,

Only time my fall is when I fear, only time may notice I disappear, and when I see her, when I see her everyday.

When Your Feet Don't Touch The Ground lyrics - Ellie Goulding

[from "Finding Neverland" soundtrack]

When did life become so complicated?
Years of too much thought and time I wasted
And in each line upon my face
Is proof I fought and lived another day

When did life become this place of madness?
Drifting on an empty sea of waves and sadness?
I make believe I'm in control
And dream it wasn't all my fault

When your feet don't touch the ground
When your voice won't make a sound
Here, it's safe, in this place, up off the clouds

When your feet don't touch the earth
You can't feel the fates that hurt
And you're free, there's no need to come down
When your feet don't touch the ground

Everyday just feels a little longer
Why am I the only one not getting stronger?
Running around pretending life's a play
It doesn't make the darkness go away

I may be young but I can still remember
Feeling full of joy, crying tears of laughter
Now all my tears are all cried out
Make-believe, but count me out

Cause my feet are on the ground
And the inner voice I found
Tells the truth, "There's no use
If your head's in the clouds"

With my feet on solid earth
I can face the fates that hurt
And in time, I'll be fine
I'll come 'round

I was once like you
Life was a maze
I couldn't find my way out
But what I say is true
You will be amazed
Make-believe and you will find out that it's true

When your feet don't touch the ground
When your voice won't make a sound
Here, it's safe. In this place
Up off the clouds
When your feet don't touch the earth
You can't feel the fates that hurt
And you're free, there's no need, to come down
When your feet don't touch the ground

You My Everything (Alternate Version) lyrics - Ellie Goulding

(You, my everything) [repeating]

You are my only hope
The truth that dealt the consequence
I know you don't feel the same
You're sensible but it doesn't make sense
I know I'm gonna weep my heart out
You know I'm gonna try much harder
But it isn't the shit in my head
Pulling me under this time

Could have given me something
You my everything
You left me kneeling
I was one of those people
You, my everything
You, my everything
You, my everything

You were my backbone when
The truth that dealt the consequence
You were my hometown when
My heart was filled with loneliness
Just as the dark was rising
You know I'm gonna try much harder
But it isn't the shit in my head
Pulling me under this time

Could have given me something
You my everything
You left me kneeling
I was one of those people
You, my everything
You, my everything
You, my everything

Could have given me something
You my everything
You left me kneeling
(You my everything)
I was one of those people
You, my everything

For what it's worth
For what it's worth
For what it's worth

You were my backbone when
My body ached with wearyness
You were my hometown when
My heart was filled with loneliness
Just as the dark was rising
I heard you close the door again
Just as the light turns out
I know who I dream of
