Tom Walker - Fly Away With Me

 
I'm strumming on the corner
About to catch last the train home
I'll have to jump the barriers
So can you spare a penny for my thoughts
I've been praised upon the pavements
Passers by don't pay much
Chased away by neighbours
Seen things you couldn't make up
If these streets could talk
They'd tell a story or two
I'll paint a picture for you

I can tell you what it feels like
To lose your home on a cold night
Can you see the blood in my red eyes
Have another toke, we'll forget life

So come and fly away with me
To a place where we could be anyone we wanna be
We can bottle up our fear
Brew a taste so sweet
Knock us off our feet
And we'll
Burn our troubles
Inhale them all
Paint the future on a fractured wall
So come and fly away with me
To a place where we could be anyone we wanna be

Still in the station when I wake up
I missed the last train home
Jump back over the barriers
No one's got a penny for my flaws
I'm asleep upon the pavement
Passersby don't say much, tutted at by strangers
Dreamt things you'd never dream of
If these streets could talk they'd tell a story or two
I'll paint a picture for you

I can tell you what it feels like
To lose something you love on a cold night
As the cars roll by under the street lights
There's only one way I can forget life

So come and fly away with me
To a place where we could be anyone we wanna be
We can bottle up our fear
Brew a taste so sweet
Knock us off our feet
And we'll
Burn our troubles
Inhale them all
Paint the future on a fractured wall
So come and fly away with me
To a place where we could be anyone we wanna be

We could be anyone we wanna be
We could be anyone we wanna be

These streets I'm walking
They've started talking to me
Can't you see?
There's only one way outta here
We have to face the things we fear
And we could be anyone we wanna be
Yeah we could be anyone we wanna be

So come and fly away with me
To a place where we could be anyone we wanna be
We can bottle up our fear
Brew a taste so sweet
Knock us off our feet
And we'll
Burn our troubles
Inhale them all
Paint the future on a fractured wall
So come and fly away with me
To a place where we could be anyone we wanna be

We could be anyone we wanna be
We could be anyone we wanna be

Tom Walker ft. Zara Larsson - Now You're Gone

 
Of all the battles that I've won
They don't matter now you're gone
Nothing matters now you're gone
Of all the battles that I've won
They don't matter now you're gone
Nothing matters now you're gone

I said, "I'm done with you"
But I can't help it when I lay down, still think of you
Keeps me awake at night and
Why do I let it get so far?
How do we end with broken hearts?
How do we end with broken hearts?
Broken hearts

So was it really worth it?
Caught in the moment while we burn it down
No one's perfect
Try to connect and we turn it 'round
Well, I'm over this game
No one's taking the blame
So was it really worth it?
Was it really worth it?

Everything we've been criticizing
Well, I don't wanna live like that
Overthinking and analyzing
Never gonna take it back
I thought I was winning but I was dying
Everything we never had
Losing you is what I want fighting

Of all the battles that I've won
They don't matter now you're gone
Nothing matters now you're gone
Of all the battles that I've won
They don't matter now you're gone
Nothing matters now you're gone

Well, you said you hated me
Tried to forget but it stays with me
What scares me is when I'm locked up, got me feeling free
Does it come from the heart?
Words cut deep, cut deeper than scars
Thought that you were perfect
Was it really worth it?

Everything we've been criticizing
Well, I don't wanna live like that
Overthinking and analyzing
Never gonna take it back
I thought I was winning but I was dying
Everything we never had
Losing you is what I want fighting

Of all the battles that I've won
They don't matter now you're gone
Nothing matters now you're gone
Of all the battles that I've won
They don't matter now you're gone
Nothing matters now you're gone

I'm too proud to call you
But I'm still thinking of you
Oh, I think I love you (oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
I'm too proud to call you
But I'm still thinking of you
Oh, I think I love you (oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
I'm too proud to call you
But I'm still thinking of you
Oh, I think I love you (oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)
I'm too proud to call you
But I'm still thinking of you
Oh, I think I love you (oh-oh, oh-oh, oh-oh)

Of all the battles that I've won
They don't matter now you're gone
Nothing matters now you're gone
Of all the battles that I've won
They don't matter now you're gone
Nothing matters now you're gone
