gabrielle aplin - home

I?m a phoenix in the water
A fish that?s learnt to fly
And i?ve always been a daughter
But feathers are meant for the sky
So I?m wishing, wishing further
For the excitement to arrive
It?s just I?d rather be causing the chaos
Than living at the sharp end of this knife

With every small disaster
I?ll let the waters still
Take me away to some place real
'Cause they say home is where your heart is set in stone
where you go when you?re alone
Is where you go to rest your bones
It?s not just where you lay your head
It's not just where you make your bed
As long as we?re together, does it matter where we go?
Home
Home

So when I?m ready to be bolder,
And my cuts have healed with time
Comfort will rest on my shoulder
And I?ll bury my future behind
I?ll always keep you with me
You?ll be always on my mind
But there?s a shining in the shadows
I?ll never know unless I try

With every small disaster
I?ll let the waters still
Take me away to some place real
'Cause they say home is where your heart is set in stone
Is where you go when you?re alone
Is where you go to rest your bones
It?s not just where you lay your head
It's not just where you make your bed
As long as we?re together, does it matter where we go?
Home
(repeated)

'Cause they say home is where your heart is set in stone
where you go when you?re alone
Is where you go to rest your bones
It?s not just where you lay your head
It's not just where you make your bed
As long as we?re together, does it matter where we go?
Home

gabrielle aplin - a case of you

Just before our love got lost you said
I am as constant as a northern star
And I said, Constantly in the darkness
Where's that at
If you want me I'll be in the bar

On the back of a cartoon coaster
In the blue TV screen light
I drew a map of Canada
Oh, Canada
With your face sketched on it twice

Oh, you're in my blood like holy wine
You taste so bitter and so sweet
Oh, I could drink a case of you, darling
And I would still be on my feet
Oh, I would still be on my feet

Oh, I am a lonely painter
I live in a box of paints
I'm frightened by the devil
And I'm drawn to those ones that ain't afraid

I remember that time you told me
You said, Love is touching souls
Surely you touched mine
'Cause part of you pours out of me
In these lines from time to time

Oh, you're in my blood like holy wine
You taste so bitter and so sweet
Oh, I could drink a case of you, darling
And still I'd be on my feet
I would still be on my feet

I met a woman
She had a mouth like yours
She knew your life
She knew your devils and your deeds
And she said, Go to him, stay with him if you can
but be prepared to bleed

Oh, but you are in my blood
You're my holy wine
You're so bitter
bitter and so sweet
Oh, I could drink a case of you darling
still I'd be on my feet
I would still be on my feet

gabrielle aplin - don t break your heart on me

In your eyes I could be anyone
But I'm no one
I left you without saying goodbye
You won't remember what we've said and done
And the storm won't come
I will put apart so push me aside

We can't always grow
From the seeds we sow
But still you watch them from your window
There's no wounds to heal
No pain to kill
Don't you break
Don't break your heart on me

You would've asked why I was leaving
When I stopped believing
In the morning rain my courage had run dry
But I'm not weaving in the shadow
Where the devil goes
He knows me well but you'll be alright

We can't always grow
From the seeds we sow
But still you watch them from your window
There's no wounds to heal
No pain to kill
Don't you break
Don't break your heart on me

Don't break your heart on me

We can't always grow
From the seeds we sow
But still you watch them from your window
There's no wounds to heal
No pain to kill
Don't you break
Don't break your heart on me

Don't break your heart on me

gabrielle aplin - you and me

We can climb the highest mountain
Reaching up to catch our dreams
Together there is nothing we can't be
Dive into the deepest oceans
Dance upon the rolling seas
Make a moment, keep a memory

Don't need to think about it
Step into the grey alone
Sing and shout and laugh about it
We know we're not alone
You lift me up and we are free
I'll follow you wherever you may be
You lift me up and we are free
I'll follow you wherever you may be

Staying up to watch the sunrise
Sneaking out a climbing tree
Together there is nothing we can't be
Close your eyes and see how time flies
Throw your worries to the breeze
We can do whatever we believe

Don't need to think about it
Step into the grey alone
Sing and shout and laugh about it
We know we're not alone
You lift me up and we are free
I'll follow you wherever you may be
You lift me up and we are free
I'll follow you wherever you may be

gabrielle aplin - never fade

Pinning polaroids on a cold brick wall
Hanging fairy lights on the garden porch
Gravitating to the nearest brawl
We're only young so we'll come back for more

And we'll let lanterns off at midnight
Looking for that cinematic view
We don't listen to advice
We're living dreams of sweet maroon

Sweet maroon (5x)

This isn't over 'til it ends
This is the one thing that we want to keep
And when it's done we'll still pretend
'Cause we're the ones that never sleep

Never sleep (7x)
(Never sleep)
Never sleep (4x)
Never sleep, yeah,
Sleep...

Lights are burning fast in front of us
Our, money's been inside collecting dust
We'll, stay awake at night
We don't want to waste a second of our time
Oh, oh, oh...

Of our time
Of our time, oh, oh, oh...
Oh, oh, of our time...
(Of our time) (14x)

We only lie when asked if we're okay
We lock ourselves up, we only pray
That we wont be the sterling silver that turns grey
We are the sparks that never fade

Never fade (17x)...

gabrielle aplin - november

I left you out in the English rain
To soak you through and dilute the blame
Don?t ever want to hear those words today

You made me high then you swooped so low
From a hummingbird to a silent crow
I was on your side but then I saw it change

I always used to love November
But now it always floods with rain
Oh how can I forgive?
Those words will stain forever

I left you out in the English rain
To soak you through and dilute the blame
Don?t ever want to hear those words today

You made me high then you swooped so low
From the hummingbird to a silent crow
I was on your side but then I saw it change

I always used to love November
But now it always floods with rain
I always used to love November
But now it always floods with rain
Oh how can I forgive?
Those words will stain forever

I always used to love November
But now it always floods with rain
I always used to love November
But now it always floods with rain
Oh how can I forgive?
Those words will stain forever

gabrielle aplin - dreams

Now there you go again you say
you want your freedom
Well who am I to keep you down
It?s only right that you should
play it the way you feel it
But listen carefully to the sound of your loneliness

Like a heartbeat drives you mad
In the stillness of remembering
Of what you had and what you lost
Of what you had and what you lost

Thunder only happens when it?s raining
Players only love you when they?re playing
Women they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean you know
You know
You know

Now here I go again I see the crystal vision
I keep my visions to myself
It?s only me who wants to wrap around your dreams
Have you any dreams you?d like to sell
Dreams of loneliness

Like a heartbeat drives you mad
In the stillness of remembering
Of what you had and what you lost
Of what you had and what you lost

Thunder only happens when it?s raining
Players only love you when they?re playing
Women they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean you know
You know

All we had and all we lost
All we had and all we lost

Thunder only happens when it?s raining
Players only love you when they?re playing
Women they will come and they will go
When the rain washes you clean you know
You know
All we had and all we lost
You know
All we had and all we lost
You know
All we had and all we lost
You know
All we had and all we lost

gabrielle aplin - shallow love

I think I think too much
I think we know to much
Everytime I?m pushing for some little ride in
I?m in a photograph, lost it from people?s past
I?m looking out and they just stare right in

I?ve been looking for a moment to say that
But I just stand up with nothing

Give me a reason to let you go
Cause I am drowning in your shallow love
Give me a reason, won?t you let me know?
This heart of mine is sinking like a stone
Shallow love, let me go
Shallow love, let me go

I try to wonder of
I think of sudden love
Don?t you think it?s time or you could take your turn?
Maybe i?m wasting time
My motions are paralized
I don?t even hear when you are crying out loud

I?m always waiting for someone to start a fire
But I just stand up with nothing

Give me a reason to let you go
Cause I am drowning in your shallow love
Give me a reason, won?t you let me know?
This heart of mine is sinking like a stone
Shallow love, let me go
Shallow love, let me go
Shallow love, let me go
Shallow love, let me go

I never felt wanted
I never felt needed
Give me a reason to follow, follow
I?m starting running to you
I?m tired of asking again and again, again and again

Give me a reason to let you go
Cause I am drowning in your shallow love
Give me a reason to let you go
Cause I am drowning in your shallow love
Give me a reason, won?t you let me know?
This heart of mine is sinking like a stone
Shallow love, let me go
Shallow love, let me go
Shallow love, let me go
Shallow love, let me go

gabrielle aplin - how do you feel today

The sound of your laugh has a ring of weariness
The night has a thousand eyes and your smile of heaviness
I?ve always asked for nothing but you?ve found it hard to see
So I gathered all I had and laid it down before you feet
I gathered all I had

So how do you feel today?
How do you feel today?
?Cause tonight I?m closing all the doors
So stay outside or lay down with our flaws
How do you feel today?

We moved faster than fate but it came at a cost
Now you?re tripping over backwards for the days of youth you lost
I offered you my hands and I?ve given you my hope
So let me be your salvation, I refuse to be your rope

So how do you feel today?
How do you feel today?
?Cause tonight I?m closing all the doors
So stay outside or lay down with our flaws
How do you feel today?

I?ve seen the glory but it wasn?t enough
Those songs and bells were just the laughter of guns
I knew your stories, I knew it was love
But those songs and bells were the laughter of guns

So how do you feel today?
How do you feel today?
?Cause tonight I?m closing all the doors
So stay outside or lay down with our flaws
How do you feel today?

gabrielle aplin - please don t say you love me

Summer comes, winter fades
Here we are just the same
We don't need pressure, we don't need change
Let's not give the game away

There used to be an empty space
A photograph without a face
But with your presence, and your grace
Everything falls into place

Just please don't say you love me
'Cause I might not say it back
Doesn't mean my heart stops skipping when you look at me like that
There's no need to worry when you see just where we're at
Just please don't say you love me
'Cause I might not say it back

Heavy words are hard to take
Under pressure precious things can break
How we feel is hard to fake
So let's not give the game away

Just please don't say you love me
'Cause I might not say it back
Doesn't mean my heart stops skipping when you look at me like that
There's no need to worry when you see just where we're at
Just please don't say you love me
'Cause I might not say it back

And fools rush in
And I've been the fool before
This time I'm gonna slow down
'Cause I think this could be more
The thing I'm looking for

Just please don't say you love me
'Cause I might not say it back
Doesn't mean my heart stops skipping when you look at me like that
There's no need to worry when you see just where we're at
Just please don't say you love me
'Cause I might not say it back

Please don't say you love me
'Cause I might not say it back
Doesn't mean my heart stops skipping when you look at me like that
There's no need to worry when you see just where we're at
Just please don't say you love me
'Cause I might not say it back

Just please don't say you love me
'Cause I might not say it back

gabrielle aplin - ghosts

I'm sick and tired of,
Hanging out my window
I've learnt from past experience,
Rain can't make flowers grow

Friends don't stick around,
They go which way the wind blows
You're never safe and sound,
Until all your doors are closed...
Doors are closed...
Doors are closed...

When you're awake on your own
Shadows turn into ghosts
When you're awake on your own
Shadows turn into ghosts

Oh, oh, oh

Soon it will all fall apart,
And their roads will have no way
And you'll be the one laughing as,
Their fences fade away

And instead of being left there,
Feeling all alone
Break down the house you made of match sticks,
And set, fire to their throne...
To their throne...
To their throne...

When you're awake on your own
Shadows turn into ghosts
When you're awake on your own
Shadows turn into ghosts

Home becomes what you're scared of the most
Home becomes what you're scared of the most
When shadows turn into ghosts
Just what you're scared of the most...

I'm pulling pictures off the wall
Watching smiles as they fall...
(2x)

I'm pulling pictures off the wall
Watching smiles as they fall
Pulling pictures off the wall...

I'm pulling pictures of the wall
Watching smiles as they fall...

When you're awake on your own
Shadows turn into ghosts
When you're awake on your own
Shadows turn into ghosts

Home becomes what you're scared of the most
Home becomes what you're scared of the most
When shadows turn into ghosts
Just what you're scared of the most...

gabrielle aplin - alive

Just one step
A different day
Would I know you at all?
Would I know you at all?
When your kingdom falls
And you family fade
But it wasn't your fault
It was never your fault

And I realise
You have to feel alive
And all your worries will escape through the door
And you'll wake up all alone on the floor
It's not too late
Just rely on me now

Nine months on
And people fade
I wouldn't be here at all
I wouldn't be here at all
'Cause I fell in line
At a different place
And it wasn't my fault
No it was never my fault

And I realise
You have to feel alive
Inside
And all your worries will escape through the door
And you'll wake up all alone on the floor
It's not too late
Just rely on me now

And all your worries will escape through the door
And you'll wake up all alone on the floor
It's not too late
Just rely on me now

And all your worries will escape through the door
And you'll wake up all alone on the floor
It's not too late
Just rely on me now

gabrielle aplin - let me in

He doesn't make your knees weak
He's beautiful and bleak
He has a porcelain face
That cracks when he speaks
I go to start a conversation but I,
Get no reply
Instead you stare like a statue as I,
Break down and cry
(Cry, cry, cry...)

Your face is like an eagle,
But your mind is like a crow
And boy, I know you have opinions,
But you don't let them show
You're a shelf of books without the pages
A wealth of thoughts locked up in cages
(Locked up, locked up, locked up...)

And if blood runs through your veins,
Don't you suppose it's such a waste?
To be composed in such a way
Just let me in
(Us in, us in, us in...)
Just let me in
(Us in, us in, us in...)

You write me letters
In a pen with no ink
And you have your own eyes
But you don't dare blink
You speak in words without a sentence,
You're the ghost that haunts me without a presence
Without a presence, without a presence

And if blood runs through your veins,
Don't you suppose it's such a waste?
To be composed in such a way
Just let me in
(Us in, us in, us in...)
Just let me in
(Us in, us in, us in...)
Just let me in

gabrielle aplin - evaporate

Flesh and bone wrapped up in skin
Kept alive by oxygen
But right now breathing is so tough.

They say they know what I can feel
And time will find a way to heal
But right now time is not enough.

But then I feel you soaking in
I can feel the blood rushing again

When it?s too hard and too late,
When I?m too tired to run away
When it cant stay the way it was,
I need you ?cause
You smash the trouble I can?t take
And all the pieces of the break
Evaporate, evaporate, evaporate

I don?t know how the words you say
Hold a thousands times more weight
Than any word I?ve heard before.

But then I feel you soaking in,
I can feel the blood rushing again
Through my veins, I can feel the pulse begin to race

When it?s too hard and too late
When I?m too tired to run away
When it can?t stay the way it was
I need you ?cause
You smash the trouble I can?t take
And all the pieces of the break
Evaporate, evaporate, evaporate

Run, run, watch them run away
Fly, fly, make them fly away

When it?s too hard and too late
When I?m too tired to run away
When it can?t stay the way it was,
I need you, ?cause
You smash the trouble I can?t take
And all the pieces of the break
Evaporate, evaporate, evaporate
Evaporate, evaporate, evaporate

gabrielle aplin - keep on walking

Something's happening, you can see
(On your way, go on your way)
We are rolling on stormy seas
(On your way, go on your way)
You call up and then disagree
The lies you're spinning are changing me.

All the glitter is not gold
From the bruises flowers grow

I feel so much better now you're not around
There's no one to kick me while I'm down
No one to burn my bridges any more
So keep on walking,

Cause I'm not here to make you feel good,
To dry up your tears and apologise for you.
I feel so much better now you're not around,
So keep on walking

You've been whispering way too long
(On your way, go on your way)
You don't say sorry, you're far too proud
(On your way, go on your way)

All the glitter is not gold
I stayed up to watch you go
I feel so much better now you're not around
There's no one to kick me while I'm down
No one to burn my bridges any more
So keep on walking,

Cause I'm not here to make you feel good,
To dry up your tears and apologise for you
I feel so much better now you're not around
So keep on walking,

You know I'm happy now
