Gabrielle Aplin - The Liar And The Lighter lyrics

rate me

Oh have some heart and hold it to your chest, <br />

We weren't in love, we were too young.<br />

We throw our words around as if they were not gold, <br />

Well they are.<br />

<br />

Oh maybe someday I will be something more, <br />

Real with arms and legs so I can walk away and stay away forever and some more<br />

Some more.<br />

<br />

I'll stick around to watch this town fall down to it's knees, <br />

You can pray the day that you hope is coming round real soon.<br />

I will run and stay away in a place that I don't know well of, <br />

You can chose a different song that you will soon love.<br />

<br />

Well here are the reasons that hurt me the most.<br />

Call off the search I'm coming home, <br />

People lie once, but not on the third, <br />

Not without reason, not for a girl.<br />

<br />

The names will vary, the names they may change, <br />

But the game, the game it stays the same, Oh love, we want the ones that we will grow to hate, to hate.<br />

<br />

It's just so<br />

Oh no, oh no. oh woah, oh no... <br />

(Etc.)<br />

<br />

Oh maybe someday I'll deserve something more, <br />

A home in which I will turn to grow.<br />

I plant the seeds so that we can become something more, something more<br />

<br />

I'll stick around to watch this town fall down to it's knees, <br />

You can pray the day that you hope is coming round real soon.<br />

I will run and stay away in a place that I don't know well of, <br />

You can chose a different song that you will soon love.<br />

<br />

Oh here are the reasons that hurt me the most, <br />

Call off the search she's coming home.<br />

People lie once, but not on the third, <br />

Not without reason, not for a girl.
