Adele - Million Years Ago lyrics

rate me

(Verse)

I only wanted to have fun

Learnin' to fly, learnin' to run

I let my heart decide the way

When I was young

Deep down I must have always known

That is would be inevitable

To earn my stripes I'd have to pay

And bear my soul

(Chorus)

I know I'm not the only one

Who regrets the things they've done

Sometimes I just feel it's only me

Who can stand the reflection that they see

I wish I could live a little more

Look up to the sky, not just the floor

I feel like my life is flashin' by

And all I can do is watch and cry

I miss the air, I miss my friends

I miss my mother, I miss it when

Life was a party to be thrown

But that was a million years ago

(Verse 2)

When I walk around all of the streets

Where I grew up and found my feet

They can't look me in the eye

It's like they're scared of me

I try to think of things to say

Like a joke or a memory

But they don't recognize me now

In the light of day

(Chorus)
