Ellie Goulding Lyrics

Every Time You Go

Every time you go, oh, oh, oh,

Every time you go, oh, oh, oh,

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 out, ever so gently, when I'm at my weakest,

It's not so hard, every time you go.

I run out 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",

But, 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 out, ever so gently, when I'm at my weakest.

It's not so hard, every time you go.

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 out, every 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.
