Heal - Tom Odell

Why wash won't work I can see you comin' We need to talk so let's have it out You say you hurt but you don't see that you're hurtin' others We both need a little piece of mind I know that the truth is undercover But you hold me to a lie I can't no longer keep The pages turn but you won't see my side of the story We both need a little time and some piece of mind How long can we keep this out when we both burn by the fire? (fire) This heat in my heartbeat tells me you can't take me fighter (fighter) All we need is a space to free then we can build the bridges out to he-he-heal... ours He-he-heal each other now He-he-heal... each other now History is part of the conversation But the past no longer holds me back anymore No I won't hide peek, hide the secrets and the complications We both know that we were wrong and it's time to move on How long can we keep this out when we both burn by the fire? (fire) This heat in my heartbeat tells me you can't take me fighter (fighter) All we need is a space to free then we can build the bridges out to he-he-heal... ours He-he-heal each other now He-he-heal... each other now Lay me down in the field of flowers Hold now we can talk it over, you and I will be alright here now, love This world will wash away the fire And he-he-heal ours He-he-heal each other now He-he-heal... each other now He-he-heal (this heat in my heartbeat) He-he-heal each other now (this heat in my heartbeat) He-he-heal (this heat in my heartbeat) Each other now He-he-heal ours He-he-heal each other now He-he-heal... each other now

There was a time I had to handle all myself I forgot just how to speak and say my name And I'm here alone in this room that's never cold And it hurts me still There was a time I had this fear before I sang No one told me I should do it for myself So I took the mic and I sang with all my heart And I hope that they remember that Oh, not this time I'm not gonna keep it quiet I will open up the gates And I hope that it will heal me Oh, my Lord Please don't let me be alonе Yeah, I'm leaving town tomorrow And I hope that it will hеal me Oh, yeah, I'm leaving town tomorrow And I hope that it will heal me Overtime my heart has told me not to waste Any minute more controlling myself So I picked the one with the saddest eyes of all And I tried to get her off the shelf Oh, not this time I'm not gonna keep it quiet I will open up the gates And I hope that it will heal me Oh, my Lord Please don't let me be alone Yeah, I'm leaving town tomorrow And I hope that it will heal me Oh, yeah, I'm leaving town tomorrow And I hope that it will heal me Oh, not this time I'm not gonna keep it quiet I will open up the gates And I hope that it will heal me Oh, my Lord Please don't let me be alone Yeah, I'm leaving town tomorrow And I hope that it will heal me Oh, yeah I'm leaving town tomorrow And I hope that it will heal me

I hold my hand over the flame To see if I can feel some pain Look at what you've gone and done Baby, baby, now I'm numb I'm losing weight, bub I'm looking great, bub So what, I go out every night, sometimes I take drugs They're like my makeup This fucking breakup You see I gave you all my heart and now I hate love That's right, I hate love It only baits us And if you wanna know how I feel, well here's a taste of I hold my hand over the flame To see if I can feel some pain Look at what you've gone and done Baby, baby, now I'm numb I hold my hand over the flame To see if I can feel some pain Look at what you've gone and done Baby, baby, baby, baby now I'm numb

And I'm coming home London in the rain Driving real slow in the fast lane Feeling kinda stressed Trying to get drunk Problem with the rich kids is that they're no fun Right now I'm flying So come and take a shot at me Not scared of dying It's sad how sad this life can be Driving through the clouds Picking all the bad ones out the crowd Had a bad month Had a bad year Had a bad time getting over my fears Right now I'm flying So come and take a shot at me Not scared of dying It's sad how I don't wanna talk about my problems I don't wanna tell another lie I don't wanna write another love song I don't wanna even fucking try Everybody hurts sometimes Everybody hurts sometimes Everybody hurts sometimes Everybody Right now I'm flying So come and take a shot at me Not scared of dying It's sad how sad this life can be

I keep waking at night in the freezing cold Staring at the shadows coming up the walls Giving me a feeling I can't define "Is there anyone there?" I say to the dark But all I get back is a beating heart Going out of rhythm and I realize Oh, something's changed Oh, something's changed It's just a silhouette, a flick in the blinds It's just a mind trick, I don't know why But it reminds me of someone that I used to know All that I can't forget, is every night right beside me I open my eyes and it reminds me I should have never let you go Look up there don't you see her face That familiar heart, that familiar shape Are giving me a feeling, I can't define Oh, something's changed Oh, something's changed It's just a silhouette, a flick in the blinds It's just a mind trick, I don't know why But it reminds me of someone that I used to know All that I can't forget, is every night right beside me I open my eyes and it reminds me I should have never let you go I wanna put my arms around you Tell everyone I found you But you're just a shadow in my mind You know you've got me so enchanted Why you gotta be cold-heart Dancing on your own in the cold streetlight It's just a silhouette, a flick in the blinds It's just a mind trick, I don't know why But it reminds me of someone that I used to know All that I can't forget, is every night right beside me I open my eyes and it reminds me I should have never let you go

I was 20 days clean yesterday I get a key ring if I make it through to May Can we talk? Is that okay? If you've got time, I know a place A rose garden in the North side of the park They shut the gates about an hour after dark We could walk there, we can laugh Ain't it funny how owners look like their dogs? Oh, I'll claw back my confidence You'll say, "Do you think we can be friends?" Oh, maybe we have reached the end Oh, maybe we have reached the end Do you remember when Taylor Hawkins died? Did you see his son playin' the drums live? It made me sad, did it make you cry? I thought of you, I don't know why Oh, give me back my oxygen You'll say, "Do you think we can be friends?" Oh, maybe we have reached the end Oh, maybe we have reached the end Yeah

I found these days the things you say are so frustrating Always asking where we're going Release the handle bars, the wheels will start to roll Who knows just what we'll find What happens to you? What happens to me? Who knows which way the wind will blow Baby, it's a mystery I don't know cause I can't see There's no point even talking about It's a mystery But I can say without a doubt I want you right now When you look at me, I see you comtemplating If I'm gonna break your heart I'm twenty-four, I'm pretty sure I'll want you when you're eighty But who wants to see that far? What happens to you? What happens to me? Who knows which way the wind will blow Baby, it's a mystery I don't know cause I can't see There's no point even talking about It's a mystery But I can say without a doubt I want you right now It don't matter how much you try to scheme and plan Too many things, my love, that are out of our hands What happens to you? What happens to me? Who knows which way the wind will blow Baby, it's a mystery I don't know cause I can't see There's no point even talking about It's a mystery But I can say without a doubt I want you right now I want you right now
