Ellie Goulding Lyrics

Explosions

You tremble like you've seen a ghost, and I gave in,

"I lack the things you need the most", you said, where have you been?

You wasted all that sweetness to run and hide, I wonder why?

I remind you of the days, you poured your heart into, but you never tried.

I've fallen from grace, to cut blow to my face,

I've loved and I've lost, I've loved and I've lost.

Explosions, on the day you wake up, needing somebody, and you've learnt,

It's okay to be afraid, but it will never be the same, it will never be the same.

You left my soul bleeding in the dark, so you could be king,

The rules you said, are still untold to me, and I've lost my faith in everything.

The nights you could cope, your intentions were gold,

But the mountains will shake, I need to know I can still make,

Explosions, on the day you wake up, needing somebody, and you've learnt,

It's okay to be afraid, but it will never be the same.

And as the floods move in, and your body starts to sink,

I was the last thing on your mind, I know you better than you think,

'Cause it's simple, darling, I gave your a warning,

Now, everything you own is falling from the sky in pieces,

So, watch them fall with you, in slow motion,

I pray that you'll find peace of mind, and I'll find you another time,

I will love you another time.

Explosions, on the day you wake up, needing somebody, and you've learnt,

It;s okay to be afraid, but it will never be the same.
