Words Lyrics by Birdy

Beautiful Lies

2016

[Verse 1]
Waiting on you
Trying to keep your head strong
With nothing to lose
You raise your voice with something to prove
And all the things you say to me
I can't forget them
You don't leave
But you tell me with your eyes what you need
Oh, please
Do you think that I don't know what it means?

[Pre-Chorus 1]
All the things you hide from me
I accept them
But I need you next to me

[Chorus]
If I can't hold you now
Keep thinking that you might not come around
I have no words
I have no words to say
If I can't change your mind
Keep thinking, is this our last goodbye?
You say it first
You say it first to me

[Verse 2]
You're in the clear
While I'm waking up to nothing but tears
And you stay the same
Like I'm the only one that needed to change

[Pre-Chorus 2]
You know the things you said to me
Do you regret them?
I just need you next to me

[Chorus]
If I can't hold you now
Keep thinking that you might not come around
I have no words
I have no words to say
If I can't change your mind
Keep thinking, is this our last goodbye?
You say it first
You say it first to me

[Bridge]
So I
Can just forget you
Just forget you, ooh ooh
Can just forget you
Just forget you, ooh ooh

[Chorus]
And If I can't hold you now
Keep thinking how you might not come around
And I have no words
I have no words to say
If I can't change your mind
Keep thinking, is this our last goodbye?
You say it first, you say it first to me
If I can't hold you now (If I can't hold you now)
Keep thinking that you might not come around (Might not come around)
I have no words
I have no words to say
If I can't change your mind (If I can't change your mind)
Keep thinking, is this our last goodbye? (Our last goodbye)
You say it first
You say it first to me
